Using a planner is hard. I, myself, have broken up with it more times than I can count. Until I found the one. Now, it’s my constant companion, and I can be found every Sunday night, prepping my planner for the week without fail. (I’m 100% pro-bullet journal. Ask me all about it!) It’s true: There are more types of planners out there than we know what to do with, and it’s possible you might not think yourself a planner person because you have yet to find the best planner for your personal needs. But that all stops now. As we close the door on 2023 and enter the year 2024 (!!!!), it’s time to find a self-care solution that makes our lives easier, not harder.

Whether you want to schedule out every detail of 2024 (hi, Virgo friends), just need a place to jot down tasks and reminders, are looking to become more mindful, get creative, or a flexible combination of all of the above, the best planner for you does exist. To help you get organized for the new year, we scoured the internet far and wide — and even consulted a few calendar obsessives along the way — to unearth the most impactful daily, weekly, and monthly organizers that will help you (or a loved one) prepare for what’s ahead.

Oh, and for those who are just starting out on their organizational journeys, we have some less rigorous, dateless options, too — meaning you can start and stop whenever you want. Scroll on to see the 24 best planners for 2024 that will make staying organized and crushing goals in the new year feel easy-breezy, no matter what you need. Your planner soulmate is out there.

Scribbles That Matter A5 Dot Grid Bullet Journal

Not everyone loves a bullet journal (I had a friend once tell me I was trying to con people into doing all visual layout work themselves), but I personally enjoy the empty, dateless, DIY journal method. As a writer, it enables me to intersperse my daily tasks and appointments with story ideas, brainstorms, mood trackers, book reviews, feelings dumps, and anything else I deem worthy of journaling.

It’s an especially good fit for a creative person who might lean a little toward the neurodivergent side (it was specifically created for ADHD adults). Now, instead of the separate planner, journal, trackers, and blogs I used to keep, I have everything in one place. Plus, I love to make it look pretty with added doodles and colors, which the thick pages of this particular journal hold exceptionally well. I know this isn’t the best planner for everyone, but it is the best planner for me. I’m on my seventh year using it.

This planner causes you to look at the big picture and break it apart. This planner is like a little bit of therapy. Can’t wait to use this all year.”

As one reviewer states, “Hands down the best planner that I have found after going through several different ones the last couple of years! I personally like that it is flexible, as my bag is usually stuffed full of all kinds of things and I won’t have to worry about creases or dents in the cover, which I have experienced with other planners….I like that each month starts off with the monthly calendar, then is followed by each day with 10 lines for notes, to-dos, etc. for each day.” If you like the idea of a bullet journal but, say, don’t want to feel “conned” into creating the layout yourself, take a look at this planner.

Blue Sky Weekly & Monthly Planner

The 2023 version of this under-$10 planner is top-rated as an Amazon’s Choice buy with 4.8 out of 5 stars. So naturally, we have high hopes for its identical 2024 twin. Last year, a reviewer raved, “I will continue to buy this particular planner because it is so very well organized; gives ample room for notes; every day (whether in the full month-at-a-glance section or daily/weekly section) is ruled to keep notes tidy; is spiral-bound so that it lays flat when open; the pages are a nice, heavier weight than you get in most planners (stands up to multiple erasings); has a heavy-duty cover that doesn’t get damaged even through rigorous treatment (and protects the pages inside from getting damaged in that rigorous treatment). For me, it is an all-in-one planner and I think it is THE BEST planner ever!”
