Planning, Planners and a Giveaway.

It's hard to believe we are almost into the third week of 2013. 

Proper planning for the New Year is a good way to get one's goals and activities on track. For years I used a daily diary to schedule meetings and events. These days with more use being made of electronic diaries it's easy to overlook the benefits of a proper "book" planner.

I must confess that I love books, and pens - proper fountain pens. It’s great to find a planner that one can customize with your own colour choice. You can also save personal dates so that your planner for the following year can be populated with your important dates.

Personal Planner have offered the readers of this blog the opportunity to take part in a Giveaway. I have had a look at the website and I am so impressed with what they offer.

Here is more about Personal Planner:

Would you like to add some colour to your workday at the same time as making your planner more efficient and that more personal? If so, Personal Planner has a great idea I think you’ll love!

Their planners provide you with endless design possibilities. You can change colour, text and design on front/back cover as well as inlay. There are also clever boxes for to-do list, gym session, preschool, idea of the week and weather. Friends and family member’s birthdays can also be added to the inlay directly from Facebook. They print and deliver the finished product directly to your doorstep. 

Here are a few things that I like about these planners:

• You design the front/back cover
• Tons of ways to design the inside to suit your style & needs.
• Add friends & family member’s birthdays to the inlay 
• Choose between 4 different sizes
• You pick the start date. 

And best of all its fun and easy.
