Plan with Me Sundays

Hey, y'all! I'm linking up with Meghan from Keeping Up with Mrs. Harris again for Plan with Me Sundays! Today we are going to talk a little about how I plan for my business week. If you don't consider creating resources for teachers as a business, then you are wrong! Who would have ever thought we would be teachers and own our own business brand?!? There is really nothing unique about the way I plan out my week. I am in the works of creating my very own business binder. But for now, I use my EC life planner to do this planning as well in addition to a spiral notebook where I keep my ideas :) I'm also going to talk a little about how I incorporate my phone into my planning! First, I wanted to share a few pics with you. These pictures are from this week... (shhh... I finally used my Canon so you aren't left with those yucky picture this time! If you don't know what I'm talking about, check out the difference in my last Plan with Me Sundays post. Picture DO MATTER! Shame on me for those horrible pics!).

I like using the weekly spread better than the monthly. I do use the monthly and try to put link-ups in their appropriate places according to what time of the month they are. Then, I transfer them all over on my weekly view on Sunday afternoons after church. :)

I reserve the bottom portion of my weekly layout for business things. I try to do a to-do list for daily things here.

I just loved this because I love pens! :) They make my teacher heart happy. Here are some I recommend.

I usually have custom stickers that are over the night part that say business. However, I've got to find them. Another reason I need an office ;) Here you can see the weekly to-do list I have going on the left side of the page. These are things I just need to get done this week... no daily constraints here!

My Mondays and Wednesdays are always really full during the summer because these are the days my boys go to summer preschool so I can work on my business :)

I use a spiral notebook to plan out my new resources. I like to write and organize everything out then put it into digital form. Once the writing is done, it usually goes by pretty fast!

Notice my phone?? I use it to plan my resources, too. Sometimes some of the greatest ideas come to me when I don't have paper and pencil. I use the recorder on my phone to record ideas when I'm out and about or driving down the road. When I get ready to create the resource, I simply play back the recording. This is by far the most efficient thing I have found for ideas... I just LOVE it! I have no idea what I would do without my recorder on my phone. The great thing is that almost every phone has one!
