10 Reasons You're Not Truly Organized Unless You Own A Passion Planner

It's so much more than a planner.

10 Reasons You're Not Truly Organized Unless You Own A Passion Planner
Ellen Tucker

Everyone strives to be more organized. We set reminders on our phones, use calendar apps, and buy a planner every school year. Yet, most of the time, they get thrown to the side and we become unorganized again. I've found a planner that works best for me and I know that others can benefit from a Passion Planner. Here's a few reasons why you should immediately order one:

1. Passion Planner is a Kickstarter company.

Founder and CEO Angelia Trinidad created the Passion Planner after feeling lost and overwhelmed post-college life. She felt as if she had accomplished everything as she was supposed to, yet still felt stuck. After a few years, she started a Kickstarter campaign for her planner. I can't thank Angelia enough for creating such an amazing tool.

2. It's not like other planners.

It is so much more than a planner. It's a place for your thoughts, to-do lists, doodles, dreams, and keepsakes. The possibilities are endless and everyone uses their planner in their own unique way. It all depends on your needs. For many, their Passion Planner becomes a journal or diary of their year.

3. It comes in two sizes.

Passion Planners come in two differing sizes. I personally have the classic size, which is 8.27 inches x 11.69 inches. That's about the size of an average piece of computer paper. I like having the extra space to plan out my week and doodle in the many margins. The other size is the compact size, which is 5.83 inches x 8.27 inches. Its a perfect size to keep in a purse or store in a small pocket of your backpack. Both sizes share the same features.

4. The layout is beautiful, minimal, and customizable.

The planner features both a Sunday and Monday option, so no one will be arguing about when the new week starts. Each weekly layout features weekly and daily focuses, as well as personal and work to-do lists. Passion Planner has free printable to-do lists, grocery lists, and water trackers that you can print out and paste in your planner to fit your needs.

5. The features are encouraging and positive.

Each weekly layout features a "Good Things That Happened" section where you can note positive events that occured that week. This can be anything from having lunch with friends to getting a good grade on a presentation. It helps you to remember the little things. There's also a "Space of Infinite Possibility" where you can add more lists, plan out a paper, or just doodle! Plus, there's a quote of the week!

6. It keeps you focused.

At the beginning of each Passion Planner is your "Passion Roadmap." This is a place to note your biggest goals for your year and helps you to keep on the track of chasing your passion. It also has annual and monthly reflection questions to get you thinking about how you're spending your time and how to improve.

7. Its eco-friendly.

The cover is a durable faux leather, which makes it animal and vegan friendly. Passion Planner has also created the Passion Planner Eco. For each planner sold, a tree will be planted. The eco planner is also made of 100% recyclable paper.

8. It comes in fun colors!

The colors that are offered rotate based on seasons, sponsors, and popularity. There's a new handful of colors each year! Of course, the planner is always offered in timeless black.

9. The website is full of resources.

Not sure if you'll like the planner? You can download and print off the weekly layouts for free to give it a try. The website also features helpful videos to give you ideas on how to use your planner.

10. It comes in academic, yearly, and undated options.

The Passion Planner is for everyone. College students, busy moms, business owners, and many others can benefit from using a planner like this. The different options lets you use the planner how you'd like. You can start using it in the middle of October with the undated option, instead of waiting until the new year.


While the Passion Planner may not be for everyone, it has features that has helped me accomplish a lot and stay on track in college. I'm the type of person that will buy a planner and only use it for two weeks. I've been using my planner for over two months now. If you want to chase your passions, get a planner that gets you there!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
