I knew that if I was going to make something for you, it would have to be super practical, something to help you hyper-focus on that one important goal you’re working so hard to obtain.

But life gets in the way sometimes, we get sidetracked and then we get discouraged. I had to take that into account in building this planner (because it happens to me sometimes too!).

2023 is the third year I’m releasing the Be Unconventional Planner as a free printable planner. This year, I didn’t feel I had to tweak it as much as last year because I’m comfortable saying that the method works, it’s tried and true, tested by me and many others who’ve used the planner and seen real progress.

I think that’s what we all want to see. Not a forced hustle and productivity-guilt kind of progress, but making real effort to reach for something bigger than ourselves kind of progress.

That’s what the Be Unconventional Planner helps you do. Take something that feels bigger than yourself and break it into chunks and then into bites and then into the ingredients you need in the first place.

How To Make The Most of Your 2023 Planner

If I could sit beside you and give you personal tips on how to make the most of your Be Unconventional Planner, it would be these:

- don’t plan to please others, you will get this done your way and on your time
- grab some scrap papers and scribble your 1st and 2nd draft of your 12-Month Plan there, be as messy as you need to be
- the plan doesn’t have to be perfect, but it does have to be realistic
- use S.M.A.R.T Goals
- make sure you know your true WHY, this is what will anchor you when you feel like drifting away
- add your personal touch (colours, stickers, quotes, photos, etc.) to make it really feel like your own - get your friend to use a planner and be accountability buddies
- embrace having to re-adjust your goals when you make allowance for your humanness

If you have questions or need clarification, ask in the comments and I’ll get back to you. The planner is my way of championing you, cheering you on in your dreams and success (and yes, even in the stumbling and falling - isn’t that when we need it most?). I’m so excited to see how this goes for you!

Be proud of yourself, 2023 will be a year of breakthrough ❤️
