June was an exceptionally busy month and July is proving to be no slower. As I transition from having virtually nothing to do to being busy every day of the week, I count my blessings every morning. I'm lucky to have the help of the Panda Planner, purchased from Amazon at a discount of the original price and with free shipping thanks to Student Prime.
With the Panda Planner, I've been able to map out my month, my week, and every day as it occurs. It is exceptionally helpful for accomplishing tasks each day, as I write which tasks I really want to accomplish to the right of the "Day" pages. I write out my priorities on these pages, as well as my gratitude, my exitement, and an affirmation of myself.
I've been called a born saleswoman and I think that's true. The thing is, though, I don't try to sell things. What I promote is only that which directly benefits me; if it doesn't work for me, I don't talk about it in a way that may persuade others to make the same choices I did.
For example, people regularly think I'm trying to sell them a Kirby whenever I talk about vacuum cleaners. I was a Kirby saleswoman, but that doesn't mean I'm still trying to sell these wonderful pieces of equipment. Instead, I am trying to sell myself, and passion is in my nature. I am passionate about that which makes my life easier, and a Kirby vacuum system does that for me even though I no longer have one of my own. Therefore, any time I hear someone say they're looking for a new vacuum, I recommend the Kirby. Often, the response I get is a protest to the price of these exorbitantly expensive, luxury vacuum cleaning systems. That is why I tell them the following: Do not buy a Kirby from a Kirby salesman. Buy a Kirby from Amazon, as you can find a brand-new vacuum cleaning system for a third or less of the original price.
I mention this because the beginning of this entry may sound a little like an advertisement for the Panda Planner I recently purchased. The reason for this is because this planner really works for me and I am passionate about it for that reason. I want others to be able to lead the lives they really want to and accomplish their goals in a timely manner. The Panda Planner is honestly great for that and I absolutely recommend it with gusto to anyone who needs better organization in his or her life.
With my order of the Panda Planner, I purchased a Bellabe hair remover, and I will tell you, it works pretty well! There are some coarse hairs on my neck that it has difficulty grabbing, but I find it to be a bit tricky to use just right. It's definitely a simple tool and a more dexterous woman (or man!) may have a much easier time with it, but for me it is a little bit of a struggle. It is worth it, by far, however, when I manage to rip out multiple hairs at one time. For all of my struggling with the Bellabe, it is still more efficient than using tweezers only.
I love being able to use my planner to lay out "tomorrow" at the end of the day. I flip to the next page, input the next day, and fill in my projected schedule and tasks for the day. Everything else remains blank until morning, when I fill in my gratitude, excitement, focus, exercise, affirmation, and priorities. Before turning to the next day's pages, I fill in how I succeeded during the day and how I may improve myself for the next day. It's by far the best planner I've ever laid eyes on.
