Organisation is one of those loaded terms when it comes to bloggers. We all have what works for us and I’m in now way saying my way is the right way, I’m just sharing what works fir me in the hopes that someone finds some inspiration in it and maybe works out how they can stay organised too.
I know some of you will be wondering why I have a new post on planners when not long ago I was posting about how to start a bullet journal. The answer is, that although I tried my best with a bullet journal it just didn’t work for me. I like being told what information should go where and having the days/dates already listed for me too.
This blog planner from TOAD Diaries is just what I’ve been looking for when it comes to a blog planner. As its fully customisable you can choose which layout you would like, the duration of the planner and also when you would like it to start. I went for a week to a page with lined pages on the opposite side as I often write lots of lists and this gives me the flexibility I need for planning and list writing. I chose the writing on the front of the planner and the back, however, there was an issue when it came to the printing and not all of my blog name was showing. The brand was fantastic and got a replacement out to me which was correct.
As a gesture of goodwill, TOAD sent me one of their new blog specific planners too. I love the fact that it has goals and a to-do list on one page and the very bullet journal style dotted page on the opposite side. As I already use the bigger planner for my blog and day to day life, the blog planner is actually going to become my uni planner when I go back for fourth year. The to-do list is going to be great for keeping up to date with lectures and coursework, whilst also planning and writing a dissertation.
What tips do you have for organisation and making the most of my planner? Leave me a comment or you’ll find me on Twitter.
