Getting started was easy. Carrying it through to completion was the hard part.
First of all I should point out that is not an image of me. I am sadly not that young, lithe or fit enough to climb a mountain.
I have managed to defeat my RSD (Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria) just long enough to get Squirrel Planners of the ground, at last! Not without a huge amount of procrastination, self doubt and a mountain of expensive mistakes.
Yet now here it is and I am immensely proud of what I have achieved.
That said, it's not an entirely altruistic or entrepreneurial endeavour. I simply wanted a planner that worked for my ADHD brain and helped me get on top of a groaning to do list, literally burgeoning with tasks I put off and ignored until it had become a crisis.
I love my planners and it is a highlight of every month to receive the new style from the printers and instantly fill it with my schedule and tasks for the week. It doesn't always stay as neat and tidy as I started out with but the visual landscape of my month to come fills me with enormous peace of mind that I have some grasp of what to expect for the coming weeks.
The development of Squirrel Planners is far from over though. Each month will bring fresh design, unique and updated content plus bonus resources. I will also be seeking out the best quality components with the greenest credentials so we can minimalise our environmental impact. I welcome any suggestions you might have!
