How I Stay Organised!

In general, I tend to be quite a busy bee with various different commitments that I have.
I think my worst nightmare would be having to let people down by admitting that I'd managed to double (or even triple) book myself so I like to carefully plan and keep track of what I'm meant to be doing for people and I have two things that really help me with that!


The first is my Filofax look-a-like from Paperchase. It's where I store all of my long-term plans, schemes and deadlines. Since nothing in it is particularly urgent, I tend to only check it on a weekly basis, but it helps to make sure I know what's coming ahead and nothing jumps out and surprises me like a birthday, event or exam!


The second is very hard to ignore since it lives in my desk. This desk pad is also from Paperchase and I think it's so cute - I love all the little animals on it. I really like the fact that it has space to fill out what's happening each day of the week, as well as To-Do lists and there's even a space for gridded paper, which I sometimes jot down some maths notes that I need to remember (although I'll admit that doesn't happen often!)

Is there anything that helps you to stay organised? I'd love to know!

    I love the Paperchase desk pad! It really is very cute! I have tiny notebooks that are made from recycled packaging and paper and they are incredibly cute as well. I am way more organised ever since I started writing my to-do list :)

      Ah it's so convenient that they're small so you can keep them with you! I always try to keep to-do lists but I never remember to keep up with them and end up getting annoyed with myself - this isn't really a strict one that I keep, more ideas that I jot down when I'm sat at my desk and think of something! x

      Haha thank you! They have some really cute ones, I'd definitely recommend taking a look. Cheaper than a Filofax as well! x
