Introduction
Welcome to the comprehensive user guide for the "I Have a Plan" paper planner. This guide is designed to help you make the most out of your planner, enabling you to set and achieve your goals effectively. Whether you are a student, a professional, or someone looking to improve their personal life, this planner is tailored to meet your needs.
Story of the "I Have a Plan" Educational Group
In November 2020, based on our educational background and courses taken in Iran and abroad during our student years in France, we decided to launch an educational channel focused on personal skill development, with an emphasis on planning and time management methods. By the grace of God, this channel became active and effective, attracting over 20,000 followers to date.
Based on our experience and needs assessment, alongside theoretical teachings and practical exercises, we felt the necessity of a planning notebook based on our vision writing and goal-setting educational style. This notebook is designed to help you plan for a year and make appropriate use of your time. It is neither just a calendar nor a typical bullet journal with a predominant fantasy aspect. With the publication of this notebook for four consecutive years and the feedback received from various individuals, from teenagers to adults, students to clerics, housewives with several children to busy fathers, we realized the importance and energy to continue this path.
This is the fifth year that, by the grace of God, we have successfully republished this special notebook with a new design for the academic year. We hope you join the thousands of examples who, by receiving proper education on how to plan for a year and manage time, achieve your goals, missions, tasks, and great dreams.

How to Use the Planner
Patience and thorough reading are key:
Using a planning notebook for time management has been so beneficial and effective for me in personal, work, individual, social, educational, and moral tasks that I decided to design and present this calendar and planning notebook based on all the studies and experiences gained. I hope that one day, instead of giving fancy dolls and decorative items as birthday gifts, people will give such useful notebooks to each other, which will play a significant role in experiencing the joy of life for them. A gift that is not just entertainment but can deeply influence the creation of a good human destiny that we love and cherish.
