Another year, another Day Designer. I was introduced to the Day Designer back in 2014 by my mentor and friend, Shelly from Always & Forever. With endless chaos going on in our lives, strategic was the adjective I wanted to be able to describe myself as by end of year.
Fast forward 5 years later – and 5 Day Designers later, the Day Designer is an integral part of my work-life balance to keep organized. So much so – I wanted to tell you all about it! Trust me, this is more than just a planner.
New to the Day Designer? Let me tell you the key reasons I love it.
Today + To-Do
Each daily page contains the two foundational pieces of becoming your own personal project manager. For Boss Babes on the go with hectic schedules, and a never ending task list, The Day Designer organizes each day on a page by page level with your today and to-do’s. This planner is over the top in a good way.
Start out each day with a clear action list of the to-do’s that you need to accomplish. Write out your schedule and appointments, and take a clear look at everything as this vision comes together. Overwhelmed? The Day Designer gives the flexibility to manage your schedule and tasks and prioritize them into the next day without losing sight of anything.
Top Three
At the top of each page, The Day Designer allows you to outline your three most important to-do’s for the day. For me, these are the items that will keep me up at night if they are not done. This allows me to clearly plan out my day and make sure these items are top of mind.
Notes
For someone who lives by a written planner, I take all of my notes within OneNote for organizational purposes. However, there are times I don’t have access to my laptop – or just need to write down a quick note. The notes section is added space within The Day Designer to keep sticky notes from covering your desk.
Daily Quotes
So much thought went behind Whitney English’s masterpiece of a planner – and the daily quotes show just that. Her hand selection of inspirational quotes at the top of each page to motivate your days are a subtle and brightening addition to The Day Designers beautiful aesthetic.
2019 Edition
How has it changed from prior years? Well – if it’s not broken, don’t fix it. I didn’t notice any significant changes from prior years on any of the pages, however the 2019 Edition does come standard with two gold foil sticker sheets and a bookmark ruler.
