6 Planners That Will Help You Boss All The Way Up In The New Year
A woman with a plan is a woman you don't f*ck with. She probably has a mean "professional" pop off reserved for emails to drive points across to clueless co-workers. She's bossy in the best way possible with the spirit of a hustler.
Now, if she also happens to wield a planner, she's next to untouchable, undefeatable — she's on a mission and you aren't stopping a damn thing. There's absolutely no time for nonsense, so if that's what you've come for, "Go home, Roger."
Those of us who've ever had a good idea know that a plan doesn't necessarily equate to a well thought out plan. It damn sure doesn't mean organized. From entrepreneurial endeavors and 9-to-5 to hobbies and date nights — a busy girl knows that a well-organized planner is the center of her Universe, at least if she's wise.
Not just any planner will do, though! Planner addicts reading this will take one glance at their planner graveyard and know exactly what I mean when I say, "Every planner is not your planner." You must take into account how you write, your organizational style, flexibility (pre-dated vs. dated as you go), and overall style. Personally, I'm more excited to use my planner if it looks cute. It's the same reason we go out and buy cute workout clothes, you have to feel good using it.
If you've yet to find one that truly speaks to you, don't panic! Here are 6 planners that will help you level up your boss all year.

Career Girl Daily recognizes that for some of us, using one planner for everything is a deal breaker. They have created four planners to meet the girl on the go right where she is. From fitness goals to daily goals, they've got you covered. The "Getting Stuff Done" planner provides a space to plan for your everyday sh*t, is totally undated, and tracks your meals plus water intake to ensure that your priorities include major acts of self-care. Additionally, there's space for a shopping list, which is something too many of us forget to do when we're on the move.
This planner doesn't have a set template for your planning, so if you're a person who is most productive when you go the old school route and create a to-do list on loose leaf paper — this is that but with a sophisticated, fun flare that meets all of your needs.

Tyler James Williams Explains Why His And Quinta Brunson 'Abbott Elementary' Characters Should Remain Friends
While Abbott Elementary fans are hoping that Janine and Gregory end up together, the show’s star has another take. Tyler James Williams plays Gregory on the Emmy award-winning sitcom, and he recently stopped by The Jennifer Hudson Show to share his point of view on his storyline with Janine, which Quinta Brunson plays.
“I hate to say it. I know that everybody’s always mad at me for this. I don’t necessarily want to see them together,” he revealed. “It’s partially an actor’s choice, but also somebody who, like, I read a lot of scripts all the time. I watch a lot of TV, a lot of film. I don’t think that we see displays of platonic love between two people often. I think it’s really easy to go right to they have feelings for each other, therefore they should be together. I like this dynamic of exploring withholding that and just actively loving each other where they are. That I like to see more.”
If you recall, they were co-workers who became friends but were secretly crushing on each other. They’ve had many awkward run-ins during and after school, like the unforgettable club scene where they were dancing nervously with each other in season one, and in season two, they finally kiss. However, it only made things even more awkward, and they decided to just be friends. Tyler further explained why he thinks it’s important to showcase that type of relationship on screen.
“I think it’s time for that. I think TV allows people to see things that could be their lives for the first time, and I think seeing a healthy friendship that is deeply caring about one another in a work atmosphere needs to be shown more than the relationship,” he concluded.
Abbott Elementary comes on every Wednesday at 9 p.m. EST on ABC.
