I just love everything about the start of a brand new year and one thing that has me even more energized and excited about 2013 is my brand new Life Planner from Crystal Wilkerson. I'm absolutely in love with this planner and how its already helping me to get organized and on track in 2013! Come take a closer look inside my planner and if you'd like to try one out for yourself, then make sure you scroll down to the bottom of this post for details on how you can win a Life Planner all access pass!
I'll be sharing more details inside my planner in the coming weeks, but for now here are a few images of the inside pages - this is only a small selection as the planner is FULL of wonderful pages + information! For a detailed list of the pages included in the planner, sizes + price go here.
One of the sections I love is the "INCREASE" section. There's an exercise journal, pages to record recipes I find, a weekly menu planning calendar, a page for my grocery list, etc. I've printed off images of some of my favourite exercises and included them in a page protector in this section so they're easily accessible when I work out. If I clip a recipe from a magazine to add to the menu that week I also tuck it into a page protector in this section to keep everything handy that I'll need for shopping/meals.
I use the 5.5 X 8.5 size binder and I love the portability of it! It can fit in my purse when I go out and I cart it around the house with me wherever I may be throughout the day....we've become pretty attached, this cute little binder and I. ;)
Not only do I use my planner for household/personal organizing but I really love the bonus blog planner that Crystal has created. I can keep an ongoing blog to-do list, keep track of future post ideas, brands I'd like to work with, upcoming guest posts, social media growth, etc. More details about the blog planner can be found here.
On her blog, Crystal is currently running a 2013 Life Planner Challenge. She'll be going through the planner section by section - so if you're interested in learning more, come follow along! If you already have the planner, stop by her blog to be inspired, challenged and for help in getting the most use out of your planner in 2013! Thank you for all the inspiration Crystal and thank you for creating such an amazing planner and sharing it with us!
If you'd like to try out Crystal's planner for yourself, follow the prompts in the rafflecopter widget below and you'll be entered to win a 2013 Life Planner all Access Pass. This pass gives you access to ALL the planner pages in JPEG + PDF format as well as access to any updates to the planner throughout 2013! Good luck everyone, giveaway closes Tuesday Jan 22 at 12:00am.

I'd love to get my time more organized. I waste so much of it.
I would like to get my Project Life process more organized. Doing it very week and not leaving an gaps that I have to fill back in later on. I would also like to better organize our menu/grocery shopping/cooking. So many nights it's 7:00 before we even think about what we are going to do for dinner and then it's a rush to run out and grab something (which ends up costing 2x what it would have been to cook)

I'd love to keep better track of my day to day life, finances, kids, emergency info, to do lists. It's overwhelming when you're not organized. I spend more time looking for things than getting things accomplished.
Wow this journal looks pretty amazing! Tried to have one last year just a tiny one but didn't get used. Now this is one that would be used all the time ♥
Laundry and meal planning!
I am American but living in West Africa right now with my hubby and 4 kids. Just living takes so much work! But my goal is to grow. So I love the emphasis on inspiration and creating.
My biggest goal for 2013 is being more organised. This will make it so much easier to attain this goal!
I feel slightly obsessed by home management binders and organisation planners, and I will say this looks just amazing

I have three kids and a husband who have important dates, appointments, etc just like I do and usually I scribble them down on anything I can find, laying them about and forgetting a fourth of them.

I would love to organize my meals and menus better!!
The planner looks amazing!

I need to get my whole life organized so this planner would really help! thanks
I'd love to get my house more organized (and simplified).
Cleaning and meal planning.
Love that this promotes a healthy home and life. Getting your environment organized and helping you schedule 'me time' for exercise. For starters, my Office could use more organizing. I can find things but I'd feel better if everything had a clearly designated place.
I always forget my school things and exams so I´d love to get them organized!
Jenna O
What a gorgeous planner! I'd LOVE one!

This would definitely help with my new year's resolution!
I love how you have created such a life changing way to stay functional! I love planners & organization, you have taken it to a whole other level!

I definitely need to organize everything in my life right now, but I would like to start with meal planning.
definitely the cleaning and blogging!
I would like to be more organized with my time. I always forget things and really do need a place write everything down. I am not a digital kind of person for that. Quickly writing down appt.s seems much easier to me.

This looks great! I like having all the different sections to keep tabs on everything. Very helpful.
I'm very organized at work and with my blog, but when it comes to the home, I wish I sometimes put it at the bottom of the list. I need to make a to do list like I do for everything else and stick to it! I have framed pictures that have been waiting to meet the wall for like 3 mo's, for example. Ugg.
This planner is beautiful and colorful! It would definitely help me get more organized.

This year, I have chosen 2 words to focus on. Create and Move. I am planning on running my first half marathon in a few months and I just want to get healthier by moving more. And I want to create more...memories, projects, photos, etc. A planner like this could help me get a grasp on my life so I could do more creating and less time confused about what I need to be doing next.
The planner is gorgeous. I would love to try this so I can get organized.
I'm working on all around organization, everything in the house having a place to go, memories, finishing projects, etc.
