We recently published the first in a two-part blog series discussing habit tracking. We have been looking at different types of habits we can all track for purposes of self-improvement. Hopefully, you have read and benefited from that first post. Now we move on to the second. The first post covered fitness, financial, and nutrition habits. This post will look at three more categories. As always, you can use the habit tracker built in to the Next Level Daily Planner to track your habits. Type #4: Work Habits Unless you are independently wealthy and have too much on your plate to actually hold a job, you must work for a living. Welcome to the club. The fact...
The Next Level Daily Planner has a built-in habit tracker designed to help you better understand how you live your daily life. Tracking habits can help you establish good habits while seeking to get rid of those you aren't so fond of. We think habit tracking is a fantastic tool for self-improvement. In light of that, we began wondering what types of habits our customers would want to track. Needless to say, we couldn't stop at just a few. So we have put together a series of two blog posts covering a full range of categories. This is the first of the series. Type #1: Fitness Habits We will start with fitness habits simply because this is...
The Next Level Daily Planner was designed to be as flexible enough to use regardless of how a person organizes their thoughts. That makes it the ideal daily planner for ADHDers. As you may already know, people with ADHD struggle with deadlines. Our planner is designed to make it easier to manage them. With that in mind, a detailed article published by ADDitude Magazine offers some insight into why ADHDers struggle to meet their deadlines. It explains why they have difficult planning for the long term. We encourage you to read the article if you or someone you know has been diagnosed with ADHD. Meanwhile, we will offer an overview here. What you are about to read may sound...
How much structure do you plan into your daily life? If you have a daily planner, how do you really feel about it? Sometimes it seems like we got so obsessed about things like time management and being the best we can be that we forget to just be people. Hopefully, that's not a normal experience for you. Researching this post led us to an entertaining 2016 article published on the Odyssey website. Entitled 'An Ode to My Planner', the article was the author's attempt to describe her relationship with her daily planner in a creative way. She did a nice job. Perhaps the biggest take-away is the realization of how much so many of us rely on...
If you are a big fan of our high-performance planner, chances are you are not the type of person who likes to be put into a box. You probably don't appreciate the one-size-fits-all approach to anything. So that being the case, do not stress over trying to figure out whether to use a daily planner, daily journal, or both. There is no 'best' way. Our modern culture likes things to be neat and clean. As much as people claim to want to be different, we seem to strive for sameness. That doesn't work for certain groups of people. Some of these groups are not like everyone else. We aren't all the same within our own group. That's okay. That's...
