This year – 2019 is on its way out, and the brand new year
2020, freshly minted and sparkling, is about to roll in. It’s at this time – at
the cusp of the years that we reflect on the year that’s fading off and plan
for the year’s that’s shining bright on the horizon. And a good planner is one
the best tools to make this transition with.

| Plan your business & lifestyle with a handy planning system |
Honestly, as much as I like the idea of using a planner (and
every year I look for one to use), I haven’t ever got down to getting one. I’m
one of those people, who vouches to start on a new daily planner, only to give
up on the idea before January is out. I prefer going with the flow and a simple
to-do list jotted down in a notepad has worked for me till now.
But now that I’m juggling 3 ventures (two of which are in
newborn and toddler stages), homeschooling my rambunctious son, devoting time
to multiple military wife commitments, and carving out time to work on my
health, I do need a simple system to jot down ideas, plans, goals and dreams.
This is why I like fellow milpreneur Shreya Sharan Pawar’s digital bundle of
planners – its user-friendly, visually appealing and flexible in the way I want
to use it as a personal & business tool (thanks Shreya, for sending it to me to use & review).
Shreya’s Planners: This is a bundle of three beautifully
designed workbooks with a Daily Planner, a Monthly Planner, and a Life &
Business Workbook. What I like about these is that I can choose which pages I
want to give more time to, and which sections I can fill later or leave out, if
that’s what I wish. For a person like me, who is a strange mix of a planner and
go-with-the-flow girl, a flexible system like this works much better.
What also helps is that it’s visually appealing and as an
artist, I always gravitate towards things that have an element of pretty in
them. And since it’s a digital download, I can print out more of the pages that
I want to work on, which gives me the choice to focus on certain areas more.
The Daily Planner: This is a straightforward list of
things-to-do, with plenty of space to jot down all the things you want to pack
into your days. I plan to take 30-31 printouts of this list and fill one up
every day or ideally, the night before.
Your Fantastic Life & Business Planner: If you’re
planning to set goals for your life and business, then this is the go-to file.
Every month has a set of questions for you to answer, which covers your
personal and business goals, the major commitments in that month, people you
want to collaborate with and how you’d like to celebrate when you meet those
goals. There are questions that bring your focus to the blog posts and social
media posts you want to write that month as well as business & personal
stuff you want to spend your money on.
Your Fantastic Life & Business Workbook: This is that
place where you can explore all your dreams, ideas and goals for the many
facets of your life. From your finances to your health, relationships to your
business, this workbook is your Idea Central.
How I plan to use it: I’ve already mentioned that while I
plan a framework of things, I’m also partly open to spontaneity, especially
when it comes to ideas and business opportunities. With this planner, I’m going
to give myself the choice. The choice to explore certain ideas and areas of my
life, while letting a few areas be. With a digital download like Shreya’s, I
get to choose what works best and make the whole planning system work for me.
You can buy this digital workbook bundle here for Rs 699 here.
