Here are 3 ways to use your planner to achieve your goals. 1. Schedule Time The primary purpose of a planner is to schedule everything you want to get done. The first thing you should always do is make a mental note of what your goals are for the next week. Next, schedule how you will complete your goals over the next few weeks.

You have to schedule your time for the whole week, even if you have nothing planned. 2. Scheduling your goals will help you achieve t ..read more

When it comes to work, who wouldn't like to have a little fun? You can use your planner to build out some fun activities, including goals for the rest of 2020.

Many planners come with dedicated notes page after each month, or blank pages in the back. I never knew what to use these pages for, so there was a lot of paper that I was leaving blank!
