5-Minute Daily Printable Planner

5-Minute Daily Printable Planner

Welcome to my first product!

This is an Etsy printable which you can find at www.etsy.com/shop/learningtoswim


The planner starts with a space for the date and you can circle the day of the week.

I’ve ordered the week Saturday - Friday to coincide with Point II from ‘The Art of Loving Your Mondays’ (https://learningtoswimblog.blogspot.com/2022/10/the-art-of-loving-your-mondays.html).

You can then track your mood with the 4 emojis right underneath before you begin to plan out your day. If you notice that your mood isn’t where you would like it to be, you can keep this in mind whilst filling in the rest of the page. Try adding in some extra self care activities to your day!

Next up, we have your ‘Top Priority’. I will be delving into this more in a future blog post but the basic premise is to pick one thing that you absolutely have to get done that day and then break it down into manageable tasks. These tasks can then be copied across into the ‘Today’s Schedule’ section. I have found that planning like this really helps me to make sure everything I need to do gets done.

Below the priority breakdown section is a water intake tracker - fairly self explanatory but this helps you to keep on top of your hydration (which, as we all know, is super important)!

Underneath that is your easy wins block - you can read more about this concept in ‘The Art of the Easy Win’ (https://learningtoswimblog.blogspot.com/2022/10/the-art-of-easy-win.html). Once you’ve filled this in, you can transfer them straight across to your schedule.

At the very bottom of the page, we have the notes section. This can be used for whatever you like, I like to use mine to specify things on my to-do list (i.e. the topic of the blog I have scheduled to write that day). You could also use this as a mini diary of what you did or your meal plan! Anything goes :)

Finally, in the bottom right-hand corner is a Gratitudes space. Try and find three things you are grateful for when you complete this everyday for an added dose of happiness :)

The Art of Buying Yourself Flowers 💐

  The Art of Buying Yourself Flowers  💐 You hear it all the time. In every self care manual. “Buy yourself flowers”. I can’t say I ever bought into this philosophy until about a year ago. I was going through a breakup and a TikToker told me to buy myself flowers every week. In avid anticipation of the day I’d feel better I religiously followed their advice. The first few times felt nice, but a little meaningless. I didn’t really understand. It wasn’t until I looked at my third batch of now wilting flowers, eager eyed at the prospect of waltzing through the flower stall at the market the next day, selecting the most beautiful bouquet for myself, that it finally clicked… Buying yourself flowers becomes about taking care of yourself. About maintaining your space. About ensuring that, in a corner of your room, exists a beautiful treat, which you refresh and repurchase for yourself. You put all of that time and money into picking out, purchasing and preening your flowers. All for ...

The Art of Reading Fiction

The Art of Reading Fiction  📚 I was a huge book worm as a child. My room was littered with novels, my favourite subject at school was English and my ‘acts of rebellion’ were to stay up late reading with a torch under a blanket. I got older and, as with most things, life got in the way. I chose reading-heavy subjects at A Levels and University and something I used to enjoy for pleasure became a mandatory chore. Yes, there’s a difference between reading about the story of a young wizard and studying the ethics of medical law, but still… I stopped casually reading in my final year of GCSEs, and it wasn’t until the last 6 months (some 7 years later), that I’ve managed to pick it back up. The best advice I could give to someone looking to get/back into reading would be to start small . Whether you read complex classics and long novels before (or this is where you aspire to end up), reading for pleasure, like most things, requires some amount of build up. I have actually found the easy ...
