Additional notes by Kate Mendonca
There are two camps when it comes to writing down things; one camp that uses digital devices to record everything, and another that goes by the traditional route with a pen and paper.
I, on one hand, dot everything down in a notebook so I could refer back to my thoughts and notes later. I also find it comforting when somewhere down the line, I reflect back on those memories and I could chart my growth.
Studies have shown that writing things down better helps you to remember things than simply adding them to your digital calendar, and can even help lower stress levels as the practice of journaling can help with daily mindfulness. Plus, we’re already getting too much screen time as it is, so a paper notebook can even provide a much-needed break from your computer.
If you’ve been looking for a planner to start 2021 with a bang, here are some useful and pretty ones to get you started.
