I don’t know about you but as I get older, my memory just isn’t as sharp as it used to be! I find myself forgetting important tasks more often.

Using productivity planner stickers really helps you to visually prioritize your to-do list and ensure you don’t forget anything critical – it’s easy to see everything you need to remember.

When you use stickers in your planner, you’ll love the sense of accomplishment and progress you see and feel instantly. This also really helps to motivate you to keep going.

Doing Too Much

It’s so easy to get overwhelmed with trying to do too many tasks – if my to-do list is starting to get longer, it’s a tell tail sign I’m trying to do too much.
