Part one is all about dating your planner, so you are set up for all those new opportunities, appointments, and plans for the year. Our planners are purposely undated, they give anyone the opportunity to get organised and start a fresh anytime in the year. I know that January is a key time for a lot of people to start a new diary or planner so first up you need to populate your planner with the months and dates.
Make it a yearly ritual, I usually pour myself a glass of wine, light a candle and play my favourite chill out music. This is your first hour of ME TIME and self-care in the New Year so make it a bit of an event if you like. I find it such a calming thing to do, it makes me feel ready.
HERE’S MY STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE TO DATING YOUR PLANNER.
ONE
Start by populating your planner with dates. Don’t forget to use your calendar bookmark included with your planner for reference. Write in or use our sticker pack to add in your dates and months. Our matching sticker packs contain all the month labels and date stickers you’ll need for all the month spreads and weekly pages. Using the stickers make your planner look super smart and neat. Or add your own personality by handwriting them in, whatever you are most comfortable with. Watch our reel (below) to see where I add my stickers in the planner

If you had one of our planners last year, remember to go back to your ‘Dates to remember’ page at the end of your diary section so you can jot down any dates and reminders you recorded there.
Now you are good to go!
Look out for Part 2 coming soon – Setting your goals for the year!
