10 Signs You’re an Agenda Addict
Some people say weekly planners are “old school”. But when did staying organized ever go out of style? Sure, everyone can update their smart phones these days, but there is something about putting pen to paper that helps one remember certain dates or tasks easier. Besides, having all of your important information in a planner is so much more reliable than having it in your phone. So if you are obsessed with your planner you are definitely not alone! Keep reading for 10 signs you’re an agenda addict!
1. In your purse, your agenda is more important than your wallet.
Who cares if you don’t have your driver’s license? The separation anxiety is far more manageable than not having your life written down and within arm’s reach.
2. You have a special place for your color-coding pens/pencils.
You can’t leave the house without them. What if something comes up and you need to write it down? Always be prepared – isn’t that Boy Scout law or something?
3. You can never have enough washi tape.
No matter what you use it for in your agenda, it is an essential to any agenda addict.
4. You have a Pinterest board devoted to agendas.
The beautiful thing about agendas is that they are never perfect. There is always room to grow and build upon your organization systems. Pinterest has an endless collection of new tips and tricks to help find what works for you.
5. You have found the perfect way to justify spending over $50 on a new agenda.
You use it all day every day – kind of like an engagement ring…?
6. You write down everything you do – even if it is something that already happened.
Nothing is better than seeing a long list of tasks to complete crossed off (or checked – whatever works for you). It’s a sense of accomplishment.
7. Staples and Michaels are your favorite stores.
So many new agendas, pens, tapes, stickers, stamps, post-its, EVERYTHING.
8. Sticky notes are your best friends.
They aren’t permanent. They are in every color, shape, and size. They are every Type-A’s dream come true. Thank you inventor-of-post-it-notes – I love you.
9. Your friends rely on your agenda as much as you do.
Every morning – “What do I have to do today?” Your friends recognize your obsession and while they may not understand it, they sure do depend on it.
10. You find comfort in the fact that there are others just as planner-obsessed as you are.
Do not fret my fellow agenda-lover. We are all in this together.
