We live pretty busy and complex lives, and managing everything takes work. That work entails tons of to-do lists, running errands, keeping track of your work schedule and your personal schedule. When it comes to being organized, it’s not as easy as it sounds. I’ll be completely honest. From the outside I appear organized, but I actually work pretty hard at staying on top of my tasks. Having a system is important, and in today’s post, the focus is my 2018 Desire Map Planner review.
Ever since college, I’ve really needed a good planner or schedule to live by. In college I kept track of my school and sorority schedules, and I can’t imagine surviving without it. Then there was a good 7 years of my life that I went without a planner, and my lack of organization and forgetfulness shined.
But then I started a direct selling business back in 2011, and I went back to keeping track of my schedule, which was a must. After that part of my journey came to a close, I found myself really missing that structure. So I tried out various methods and planners, and I FINALLY found the right one for me 2 years ago. So when the new release became available for it, I couldn’t wait to share my 2018 Desire Map Planner Review.
In fact, I love this product so much that I set up a giveaway for a 2018 planner of your own at the end of the post!
You know I love to review things I love, so filling you in on this product is such a simple decision. In this 2018 Desire Map Planner Review, I’ll be covering who this planner works well for, what I love about it, and what it’s done for me.
I also created a video going over my 2018 Desire Map Planner review, so you can watch it below here.
2018 Desire Map Planner Review – Two Options:

This planner takes you through the year day by day, with unique soul prompts, scheduling space, #truthbombs, a Stop Doing list (because saying no is revolutionary) and a super condensed list called 3 Things so you can get your most important to-dos done.

The WEEKLY planner is for the big dreamers, Creatives, and entrepreneurs — the planner-types who want a bird’s eye view of their week. This planner takes a look at your week over a two-page spread, so you can plan your week with a bird’s eye view. Sprinkled with prompts for positive declarations and #truthbombs, the weekly spread also has space for your Core Desired Feelings, daily to-do’s, and a list of 3 Things so you can get your most important to-dos done. This planner also has an End of Week Check-in with unique Soul Prompts from Danielle with space for reflecting on life as you move through it week by week.

Who’s It For?
- Those who need both structure & space to create. I find that I need both of these or else I’m either feeling claustrophobic and stifled (with too much structure) or lacking focus and clarity (without much structure).
- Those that want to journal more or already enjoy journaling, because there’s space to reflect throughout the planner. I’m obsessed with journaling, and even wrote a post I LOVE all about journaling fearlessly.
- Someone who likes inspiration and prompts, because it’s nice to have little quotes and reminders pop up.
What do I love about it?
- I’m a girl who needs to check things off her list to feel productive, so I can absolutely do that here.
- Love the notes section where I can jot down thoughts and ideas
- Keeps me on task with the “3 Things to Get Done This Week” section, so I stay focused.
- Soul prompts sprinkled throughout are a great reminder to take stock consistently of how I’m feeling and what I need.
- I’m such a fan of gratitude, so I love that there’s a section just for that.
- I love having structure, but I also really love space. This planner offers me both structure and space, and finding that gives me balance.
- Oh and I love all things pretty, so the gorgeous limited edition cover speaks to me. I find that if I have something that’s visually appealing, then I’m more likely to use it. If you’re not like that, then the standard cover is pretty too, and very classic.
Why this planner Improves My Life:
- I can tell a huge difference in my focus and productivity on the weeks I forget to use my planner. Feeling lost, lacking focus, and letting overwhelm take over dominate those days.
- I had to do this 2018 Desire Map Planner Review, because it’s been critical in helping me create and keep habits. Whether it’s tracking my water daily, remembering to work on courses I’ve purchased, or keeping me focused on exercise or errands, I feel so much more in control!
- Focusing more on the tasks that matter rather than little things marks a huge change. Thank God!
- And I ALWAYS add fun to my week by reminding myself to meet up with friends or have a date night, or whatever my soul needs that week.
