The Bloomsbury Student Planner 2022-2023: Academic Diary

Product Information

So, with the dawn of a new year ahead of us, the search for something we can keep close all year is on. Of course, for the stationery fanatics among us, choosing the right 2023 planner is a high-pressure task. Not least because you need to use it for a whole 365 days. Dr. Lyons echoes this sentiment, saying, "Simply having a planner be an action plan that lays out your goals is best, and thinking about it as an action plan for achieving your goals actually reduces stress because it lays our achievable action steps. It plots a way of achieving your goal in achievable, bite-sized steps." For certain parts of the day, decide what you’re going to focus on, and focus solely on that one thing," she says. "I put things into my calendar, and when I do that thing, I do that only. As much as you can, do one thing at one time and schedule it in your calendar. I even have my morning walks and my meditation in my calendar. If you think about it, when you’re doing six or seven things at one time, your energy is fragmented among those six or seven things, so it’s going to take you six times longer to do each of those tasks. But if you focus on one task at a time before moving to the next, you’ve got fully focused energy that’s not fragmented. And that’s how you become more efficient and save more time and energy." The files are saved in Adobe PDF format (file extension .pdf) and can be opened with the Adobe Acrobat Reader and most other PDF readers, for example the PDF-XChange Viewer and the Foxit Reader. The files can be scaled up and down so they can be printed on paper sizes other than A4 (eg. enlarged to A3/A2 or shrunk to A5/A6; see instructions).

The PDF files can also be scaled up and down and printed on paper sizes other than A4 (eg. enlarged to A3/A2 or reduced A5/A6). She adds that the perfect planner should also get you into the right mindset to start a positive, productive day. The right planner, she says, "might start with gratitude, or it might start with a statement answering 'What state of being am I going to be in today?'" This, she says, puts you in the right state of mind to have a productive day. When Cameron herself began trying this out, she says she needed to work less. "I was far more productive," she attests, "and the work I did had a far greater impact."This is the FIRST TIME I have EVER used a planner for an entire year. I usually get so frustrated keeping up with two planners (a calendar and a binder to keep those important papers I mentioned above). This option was created by Cameron herself, and has a focus on gratitude journaling. She explains, "My gratitude journal has spaces to show gratitude for five things that I have already and for five things that i’m manifesting. It has a goal statement, it has a state of being statement, and it has a statement on sending love (so it's 'Who am I sending love to today?')." She says part of her motivation was to open people up to what she calls the two types of gratitude: "There's gratitude for what you have in your life already, and there’s gratitude for manifestation. There, you’re grateful not for the things you have but for the things that are on their way." When buying an agenda, another important question to ask yourself is when and for how long you intend on using it. Some agendas on this list are designed for limited spaces of time (e.g., six weeks or three months at a time); others are undated so that users can focus on accomplishing specific short-term goals. Other goal-oriented planners include inspirational quotes, tips on staying focused, and other tools meant to guide you along your journey. Meanwhile, more traditional, dated planners and agendas simply lay out the entire calendar year or school year. month planners run from July to December of the following year. This academic format is extremely useful for students and teachers, but also for anyone who likes to start afresh mid-year and plan further into the future.

Designed for 5, 6, 8 or 10 teaching periods per day with spaces for lesson plans, homework assignments, assemblies, after-school activities and personal reminders. Covers Dr. Lyons points out that the benefits of having a planner or agenda aren't just aesthetic. "Often, structuring our time takes us out of a reactive mode and out of a place of urgency, and as a result we're more proactive with our time as opposed to reactive. And that, in and of itself, lowers our stress levels and makes us more able to manage our attention efficiently. Trying to complete a task while holding our entire agenda for the day in our heads is an inefficient use of our time and energy, so that ends up leaking out and we aren’t able to be as efficient as we could bein other important facets of our lives, like our relationships and our self care. There really are a lot of ramifications for not being efficient with our time management." What to Look For in a Planner Don't forget that all our Classic Planners can be personalised with a word or message on the cover. A personalised diary is unique to you, as well as being a great way to create a special gift. You can also customise your planner with pins: we have a selection of charms with either letters or symbols designed to attach to the elastic closure to add some personalised sparkle. Dr. Lyons points out that the satisfied feeling you get from writing down tasks actually has a psychological basis. "There is some interesting research about mobilizing," he explains, "where even just writing things down can help reduce stress, because we’re motoring some of that energy and anxiety into action." Plus, he says, "Some things you just can't type out," such as emphasizing important notes by underlining or highlighting. The templates are blank, printable and macro-free and are easy to edit, amend, save and use again later. They are saved in Microsoft Word ".docx" format and can be used with the newer versions of Word that support the XML document standard (files with ".docx" extension - Word 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019, 2021 and Office 365). If you have one of the older versions of Word that only supports the ".doc" format (Word 2000, 2002/XP & 2003), or if you don't have Word installed, use Microsoft Office Online or one of the free Microsoft Word/Microsoft Office alternatives FreeOffice TextMaker, LibreOffice Writer and Google Docs, which are all free of charge ( OpenOffice Writer unfortunately has formatting problems when opening our calendars), or use a docx to doc converter (available for online or offline use). Also compatible with Microsoft Office for Mac (macOS) and Microsoft Office mobile for iPad/iOS, Android and Windows 10 mobile. Read more about the various Word versions and file formats on Wikipedia. More free Word calendar templates are also available from the Microsoft template gallery (calendar section).If you want to make more of a statement, take a look at our limited edition planners.

Fashion stylist Sarah Nearis often finds herself running from appointment to appointment and city to city, splitting her time primarily between Nashville and L.A. and styling the likes of Rita Ora, JoJo, Michelle Rodriguez, and more. To stay organized, she uses a planner app called Structured."I love it because I’m a very visual person and its layout inspires me to be more organized," she says. "I feel like, as artists, sometimes we can be scatterbrained and I get distracted easily, but this app is super user friendly, visual appealing, and motivates me to be more organized."
