"New year, new me" often times means "new year, time to get my life together and knock out everything I've been procrastinating." It's totally understandable and I do the same exact thing. It's a time to reorganize, plan, get back on track, kick old habits and to just start fresh. I'm a big advocate of putting pen to paper and writing down what you need to do. After all, there aren't a lot of better feelings than marking through the "to-do's" on your to-do list. Start 2017 off on the right foot and buy yourself a killer planner that will help you organize, prioritize and goal-set.

1. Rifle Paper Co.

They've got everything you need to organize your life, their planners are just one of a few. If you're looking for something small but not too small, with a weekly layout and a few lines to make a list of your Monday-Sunday do's, then this planner is the one for you!

2. Passion Planner

If you've got a million and one things going on at all times, this planner is the one for you. It has plenty of lies to write down every meeting, dinner and lunch date, test, quiz, and practice. There's also extra room on the bottom of the pages to write down goals for the week, a work do-do list and a personal to-do list and extra space to align your passions, duh. If you need something simple, this isn't your best option. But if you're always on the go and need some killer lines and spaces to jot down and plan out every hour of your day, this planner just became your best friend.




3. Julia Kostreva Planners

This is the planner I currently have and I absolutely love it. It has a lot more blank space and room for you to fill it up however you want and need. It is a weekly layout without any lines. There aren't any pre planned dates, so you can pick up this cute little planner at any time of the year and start with whatever date you need. My favorite thing about Julia Kostreva planners are their ability to travel well and light. It's paper backed and can bend and mold to fit in my purse, carry on, or in my hand.

4. The Happiness Planner

Your guide to ~focusing on what makes you happy~ in 2017. This planner will not only let you plan out your life and write down your never ending to-do list, but it will help you "understand yourself better and become more self-aware by answering questions and practicing self-reflection." This probably isn't the best journal if you're looking for something quick, but the best journal if you want a complete "get my life together" planner/journal.


5. Emily Ley Planner's

PSA to all the over-organized girl bosses out there. If you want tabs, this has it. If you want lines, this has it. If you want room every day to fit every single task, this has it. Emily Ley planners have got everything you could possibly need to organize every day, week and month.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
