The most effective way to use a daily planner starts with choosing the right one. Take the Erin Condren planner quiz to discover which planner is right for you. After you've chosen your perfect planner, an easy way to start building good habits is by using your planner every day. Here are a few tips to get you started.

Tips For Using a Daily Planner Effectively:

1. At the same time each day, write down your goals, priorities, and/or daily to-dos in your planner. Pro tip: stack daily planning with one of your existing daily habits (when you drink coffee, during scheduled breaks, before bedtime, etc.).
2. Create a system that works best for you. Want to focus solely on work tasks? Separate sections for family/work/personal? Find the rhythm that fits with your life and customize the planner to fit those needs.
3. Record and organize everything all in one place, from daily checklists to shopping lists to budgets, and notes. Using a planner this way will help you remember and keep track of important tasks, appointments, and info throughout the day.
4. It's okay to be messy! No need to stress out about always keeping your planner nice and neat. It’s meant to be used, not kept pristine. Make lists, cross them out, jot notes, doodle, journal, move plans around, do what you need to do to get things done so you have more time for what matters most.
5. Have fun with your daily planner, make it your own, and enjoy how it will help you tame the chaos, reduce stress, and reach your goals!
