I’ve always loved paper planners, and over the years I have had several planners that I have liked, but I always had a hard time finding one that really worked the way I needed it to, and the way I wanted it to.
I got my first Erin Condren Life Planner in 2013, and I have been in love from the moment I opened the box.
I use my Erin Condren planner for everything, and when I say everything I mean everything! Household, business, and personal. It has been the best planner I have ever had. As long as Erin Condren is making planners I will continue to purchase them.

I thought I would share with you some photos of inside the planner, and how I am using each section. The planner starts out with this page, the top of each box is blank.
I’m using this page for an overview of the Stampin’ UP! Year, this way I can track different business tasks that need to be done through out the year.
At the beginning of each month there is a single sheet of note paper, I created a blogging tracker that I print at 90% so that I can fit it in the planner.
This is the monthly overview. I’m using the Erin Condren stickers that come with the planner to add a few classes, or events that I know happen each month. I also have used a few stamps to add a little bit of decoration.
This year I have switched from the plain vertical layout, to the hourly layout. The vertical layout is what made me decided to use the Erin Condren planner to begin with. This year I am trying out the hourly.
I’ve done a little bit of planning already, and I am enjoy this layout.
At the back of my planner I have this Realistic Goal Setting Tracker which I have created to keep track of different aspects of my business. I also have left a sheet of paper by each goal sheet so I can track different aspects of business through out the year.
Next I found a Password Log that I purchased HERE. I also printed this is at 85% so that I could add this to my planner.
I also wanted to be able to track the bills we needed to pay. I found this one HERE on Pinterest. Just make sure when you are printing any documents to put in your planner that you test out which size will work best. I printed this at 83%
I also created a budget book. This book fits in the back of my planner. Now I have everything I need to run my household, and business right in this planner.
I hope you enjoyed seeing my Erin Condren Life Planner today. Every year I find I use this planner more, and more.
