I made this mistake last year so I speak from a place of experience. Back to school fever hits and I start looking for next year’s planner. My planner holds my life together and I won’t even try to live without one.
Watch the Planner dates!
The shelves are full of planners right now so it seems like a really good idea to grab one while there’s tons of choice. But take the time to notice the dates because every single one I looked at for the last two weeks has been for the academic year and not the calendar year.
I made that mistake last year and ended up buying a new one after the first quarter when I realized mine had no August – Dec. It created a lot of work trying to move important things from one to another.
Most planners on the shelf right now go from July to June or July, not December.
