My Progress Planner Diary 2018: Take It To The Next Level

by Lisa Newton

If your to-do list is never-ending, and you've been chasing your tail a lot, or always using scraps of paper to make notes - and then losing them - then this book is just for you! This book is a combination of planning ahead (year to view), monthly, weekly overview and then breaking it down into daily diary page-a-day with space for you to make your notes, give yourself reminders as well as review your progress to date and note the good things (daily gratitude) and what you've learned about yourself, and life, as the time flies by.

Having these various elements helps you to take stock of the overall plan, it gives you things to think about, and then practical steps to turn the plan into a reality.

Author Lisa Newton is a massive fan of 'to do' lists and planning on spreadsheets, but having found she was literally having to print it out every day... wouldn't it be better to have it in a book format, so that it's all in one place and you can keep track as you go. "I'm still a fan of pen and paper" says the author who is also an entrepreneur and runs various businesses - which means scheduling in meetings, making calls. Plus one needs to make space for other elements - family, finances, spirit, career goals, relationships, health. This book covers all these elements. You can use it to plan and track all of these areas.

This book is the work of 25+ years of diary use, timetable planning and goal setting. It combines the very best and most useful elements together to make you time more productive and your life more effective.

Nothing happens by chance. If you want to achieve something, you need to decide on what your intention is, choose the direction and take steps to move towards it. You may be so overwhelmed at the moment, but you can put in a goal in a future month, so that the idea/thought isn't lost - but logged. This book will help you to get more oranised and to complete goals.

It's a mindful way of keeping track. There's a place for your daily thoughts - which you can use to sketch on, if that's your preferred doodle method. Use this goal planning 2018 diary to make this year your most amazing year to date!

Take it (your life) to another level and you'll be amazed at how productive you can be, and how much you can achieve in one year with the help of this planning tool. It makes a great gift for someone because of its useful practicality. By the year end, you'll be wanting to get your hands on the 2019 version because you'll look back and you will be able to see how far you've come and (more importantly) how you got there. There are good habits to develop and some to let go of. If procrastination is a bad habit, or if you're feeling stuck, or if you feel frustrated by your lack of progress, if you just seem to be going around in circles, if you're not getting where you want to go, or being who you want to be - then this book will certainly help.

It's the next level of diaries. Also known as bullet journalling. Its a todo list meets diary meets goals meets gratitude journal meets reflection meets counsellor meets scheduller meets organiser. You will wonder how you ever managed once you've had this experience of my progress planner diary. The diary is for the calendar year 2018. It starts on 1st January and ends on the 31st December.
