August 2009 Planners Available

Here are this month’s planners. Enjoy!

Release Notes:

• I made some minor changes to the Blog Post Calendar and Planner. I added a few leading questions in the header area to help get the creative juices flowing.
• This was a great month for planner/aid ideas. I have a few new ones drafted, but I may not get them out this month. Join the NEW Productive Flourishing Newsletter (in the right sidebar) to be the first to see the new ideas.

School begins at the end of this month, and I know that causes a lot of changes. Remember to allow some time for transitions and be gentle with yourself (and others) toward the end of the month.
