Color coding your life!

Summer and a new school year on the horizon usually means hectic scheduling and all kinds of new things in life! How do you keep track of it all?! One simple way to keep track of all activities and schedules with all the different people in your life is by color coding. There are FOUR Easy steps to successfully color coding and get your life in order and ready to rock it out!

Find pens and colors that you love!
Establish what style of color coding works best for you! (See below some examples!)
Stay consistant!

In this method, each family member is assigned their own color so it is easy to see at a glance who has what going on at any specific time.

One of my favorite ways to color code is by priority. A "must do” will be assigned one color, another color for something that needs to be done but not necessarily today, and a third color for something that is on my list but can be fit in whenever I have some extra time. This is great because you can tell at a glance if you accomplished everything that was high priority each day and if you happened to cross off something in that third color, thats a huge bonus! Then you can move the remaining items to another day.

In this method, different areas of your life are assigned a different color. For instance, Work=blue, Family time = Pink, Personal development=Orange.

Here are some examples of different categories you may want to color code!

Different family members

School subjects

After school activities

Committees and sporting clubs

Meal Planning

Chores/House related tasks

Hobbies

Business

Birthdays/Special Events

Savings

Goals

Exercise/fitness

The ideas are endless!…

That's it! You are ready! Stay consistent and you will be amazed at how helpful color coding can be!

Always love my START planners!

This is EVERYTHING

I was so disappointed when the A5 daily was pulled. I wasn't a spiral bound person. By the grace of God, I saw that the A5 2024 inserts were on pre-order. From 2020-2023 it was difficult trying to piece together a system I like. The 2024 has arrived and I am sooooo in love...it's a Sunday start too. I would give this 50 stars if I could. Thank you thank you thank you. I felt like my life was in shambles w/o it.

Can’t live without system!

Love this product! I also have the spiral bound planner and could not be more happy. Thank you for continuing to provide top notch products!

Miss the book-bound version!

I switched from Passion Planner to Start Planner in 2023 and absolutely LOVE this planner! It has a way to track absolutely everything. I received my planner for 2024 (I purchased the only available version) and already find myself a little sad over the spiral binding because it makes the planner so much bulkier than the previous book-bound version I had. I also miss the front pocket, although this new one has a different style pocket in the back. The planner is still incredible, but I find myself wanting for the sleeker design I had previously. I really hope Start Brands doesn't completely discontinue their planner and they go back to having more options for 2025.

For years it has been my go to! The best ever 💜

Color coding your life!
