How to Reset Your Planner for 2023
Starting the new year with new setup can be a great way to get organized and feel motivated for the year ahead. It's a great idea to reset your planner at the beginning of the year to help you stay organized and on track in the new year.
I like to set the tone with candles, coffee, or other cozy details can also help you get into a refreshed and focused mindset as you begin to plan for the new year.
There are several steps you can take to do this effectively:
- Reflect, sort and then Purge your previous years inserts.
- Review your setup, system and sections to see if they still work.
- Add your new inserts for the upcoming year
- Purge your inbox items or transfer to new inbox
- Plan your year at a glance
- Plan your Month
- Plan the first week of January
- Add any new decor pieces or change your cover to freshen the look
- Do a quick flip through to make sure things look good
- Think about your schedule for maintaining your planner via a routine
