Oh, the humble planner. It’s your reliable companion, personal assistant, and possibly the only thing that knows how many times you press the snooze button. But keeping it creative? That’s another story. Fear not, for I’ve compiled a wealth of advice to keep your planner as active as a cat chasing a laser pointer. Let’s dig right in!

1. Join a Community: Have you ever heard the phrase “birds of a feather flock together?” The same goes for planner fanatics! Joining a network of fellow planner enthusiasts can seem like finding a hidden club where everyone shares your passion for colourful washi tape and doodling. Whether it’s an online organization or a local club, these communities are brimming with ideas, recommendations, and maybe even a meme or two about the difficulties of running out of sticky notes. Who knows? You might even meet your planner soulmate!

2. YouTube for Inspiration: YouTube is similar to the enchanted wardrobe that leads to Narnia, except instead of lions and witches, it provides unlimited inspiration for your planner. From bullet journal queens to sticker collectors, there’s something for everyone. You can learn how to use watercolour methods to make your planner pages stand out or how to schedule your Netflix binges perfectly. Just remember to keep a notepad nearby since you’ll be writing down ideas faster than you can say “subscribe!”
