Plan With Me - How I Plan

It's been a few weeks since my last PWM. I was away on a business trip and did not take my planner with me. There really was no time to plan or do anything but work! So most of January is blank :-(

But for this week I decided to show you my step by step process on how I plan. I am really loving kits right now. It cuts down on my need for extra icon stickers plus I know that everything will match!

Most of the stickers that i've found on Etsy are formated for the Erin Condrin vertical life planner. Since I use the MAMBI Happy Planner those stickers don't fill up all of my white space. Now this usually does not bother me but I am always excited to see a kit that is formated for my HP!

The kit I am featuring this week is from Let's Plan It and fits my Happy Planner perfectly! Even though the pattern is floral, the cool gray and red tones make this a perfect kit for February.



Let's Plan It - Lovely Floral for MAMBI Happy Planner



I start by removing the weekly pages from my planner to give me a little more room to work. The weekly kits from Let's Plan It include a side bar checklist as well as 8 full boxes. I start by placing these down. I don't worry about a side bar if there is not one included but I appreciate having the space for a running checklist or list of reminders for my week.




Next, I go in and add my checklist, morning/day/night header coverups, and weekend banner. I also add any daily trackers for meals and water intake. These water bottles from Let's Plan It are some of my favorites!

 

This week I decided to add in some excersise reminders. I pulled this sheet of sneakers and dumbells from a recent Etsy haul. These are from The Organizing Companion.

 

 

At this point I am pretty much done with my spread. All that is left for me to do is go in and add any special events, daily tasks, or appointments I need to keep track of. This is when I use the added icons that these weekly kits come with. I love the way that this week looks! It's clean and easy to read but also decorative and feminine.
