With all the planning choices available in the Cultivate shop (and more to come!), we know you might be wondering what goal-setting and daily-planning combination is right for you in the year ahead. We've got you covered with a handy decision tree, but if you'd like to hear what a few friends are choosing for 2023, listen in! We polled a few members of Team Cultivate, and here's what they had to say:
Casey: I’m using my One-Year PowerSheets® in Papaya and my Season by Season Daily Planner with Wildcard pages, Tending Tape, and Snap-ins. I need the accountability and structure of a daily planner for my meetings, appointments, social commitments, and to-do’s. However, I don’t want to lose sight of doing the things that matter in the big picture. I can so easily get lost with to-do’s that I can forget my get-to’s. My One-Year PowerSheets help me step back and see the whole garden.
Abbie: I'm using the Garden Arches One-Year PowerSheets along with the Season by Season Daily Planner and making it all pretty with both sticker books. At this point in my life, I can’t imagine NOT having PowerSheets. They keep me grounded and focused on what matters in my unique season. I am excited to pair my daily planner with my PowerSheets to keep me more accountable and to use my days intentionally! It's easy to jump from thing to thing or feel overwhelmed by to do’s. But with the SBS and PS together, I can cultivate my days.
Emily: I think I'll always be a One-Year PowerSheets gal—I just love having one place to plan and track my dreams for a full year! For 2023, I chose the Bluebird cover. While the monthly calendar inside the PowerSheets is enough for my minimal planning needs, I've found it helpful to go into more detail at the beginning of each week using the Intentional Weekly Planner Notepad. I'm also thinking I'll use the new Monthly Planner (LOVE!) for either meal planning or content planning for my personal blog. And I am so excited to use Write the Word® | The Gospels and the accompanying yearly reading plan throughout 2023!
Kelley: I chose to pair One-Year PowerSheets (Team Bluebird!) with the Season by Season Daily Planner. This will be my first year diving into daily planning, and I love how SBS has daily reminders to tend to my goals! I’m also excited to use the Wellness Planner Notepad. To me, planting seeds of wellness means more than just a fitness routine. It means drinking more water, resting well, expressing gratitude, and caring for myself in some way each day—all things I can track easily with the Wellness Planner Notepad!
Alli: I'll mainly be using my Bluebird One-Year PowerSheets and the Intentional Weekly Planner Notepad to keep both the daily must-dos and my goals front and center. I can so easily get bogged down in the day-to-day, so if it weren't for my PowerSheets, I would never make meaningful progress toward my goals! The Intentional Weekly Planner Notepad is the best way for my family to stay on the same page with what needs to get done for commitments, appointments, household tasks, and meals. My husband and I trade off childcare throughout the week, so having one shared tool out in the open for us to both constantly reference is so helpful! And of course, I'll be using ALL THE POUCHES to keep everything organized!
We'd love to hear: what's your cultivated stack for 2023? Leave a comment and let us know!
