Best Planners For Staying Organized In 2016

If one of your New Year’s resolutions includes staying more organized during the upcoming year, you’ll want to check out these excellent planners.

Passion Planner

The Passion Planner Classic 2016 comes in a sleek, black design that will look professional sitting out on your desk at work. Inside you’ll find sections to record your goals (from lifetime to three months), weekly layouts, annual and monthly calendars and check-in pages to reflect on the past month. To keep you positive, you’ll also find sections to keep track of the good things that happened each and every week. ($30)

Bullet Journal

The Bullet Journal system is for those of us who prefer to-do lists and short, concise sentences over dream lists and reflections. Using a predetermined set of symbols and an entirely new organization system, the Bullet Journal simplifies your life into small, bite-sized steps that will make you really consider whether or not you need everything that happens to be on your plate. While you can buy a specially made journal, you can also use any nice, lined travel notebook.

Erin Condren LifePlanner

Erin Condren offers several different types of planners, but the Good to Go planner in rose gold is arguably the prettiest and incredibly customizable. You can choose from horizontal, vertical and hourly weekly layouts, then choose a personalized cover. You’ll get a mixture of lined, blank and graph pages to mix and match and move around to suit how you like to plan. ($75)

Graphic Image Datebook

For those who think that all this seems to be a bit much, and just want a starter organizer to get all their ducks in a row, Graphic Image offers classic leather datebooks in a small pocket size and 11 different colors. With monthly and weekly pages, plus a few sheets of maps and holidays, you have exactly what you need and no more. ($40)
