Intro and Being More Organized! // How To

With work and school just piling up, one day I was just like 'Stephanie, you have to to get your act together, you have to be more proactive, work harder and be more productive, and be more organized!'. Since then, I have been working extremely hard to keep up my good habits and I only want to get better. With this blog, hopefully I will be able to inspire you to live a better life and along the journey, I will be able to become a better version of me. To start off my blog, here is one incredibly amazing way to become more organized.

Keep an agenda//write to do lists

For years, I've always wanted to keep a really nice and organized agenda but something always happens and I stop keeping an agenda. I start off the year really motivated and for some reason my motivation just goes downhill as the year goes on. However this year, I told myself that this year I would not allow this to happen again. I would keep writing in my agenda, each and everyday. I started in September and now that it's May, I can surely conclude that my motivation is still high and I am still writing in my agenda! It's honestly been such a life changing habit. I always know what I have to get done, I never forget any important dates and overall, I just feel a lot happier and less stressed out. A good tip for keeping your motivation up is to make your agenda look aesthetically pleasing. When you are out shopping for an agenda, don't purchase just some plain jane agenda. Buy an agenda that you think looks pretty. My personal favourite is the Kate Spade agenda.

Isn't it just adorable? I love the way that it is so classy and cute. Having a pretty agenda can really help motivate you keep going. Another tip is to colour code. By colour coding, you can clearly see which notes are from school, work etc. For me at least, looking at boring black can really dampen my mood so I make sure that I liven up my agenda with some pretty colours. My favourite pens to write in my agenda with are the Staedtler Triplus Fineliner.

These pens come in so many different and bright colours that you'll be sure to find one you like. I love these pens because they don't bleed through the page so your agenda will be pristine looking from beginning to end. One of my absolutely favourite online stores to get new stationary is www.jetpens.com. I love this site, there are so many items to choose from. I hope you will check it out!

Well that concludes my first blog post, I hope you've enjoyed reading it and I hope you will take something away from it. I love to be organized now so in the future, I will create more posts about ways to become organized!
