The year 2020 turned out to be a bit of a dumpster fire for a lot of us and as we’re heading into the new year, just about everyone is ready for a fresh start. So why not hit the ground running in 2021 with a beautiful wall Focused wall calendar. Mike and I have partnered once again with the folks at NeuYear to produce a great looking wall calendar.
This year’s version is dry-erase (but keeps the $24 price point) and week’s start on Monday, as they should. It’ll look amazing on your wall as you conquer 2021. As much as I like my digital bits, there is something to be said for having a big wall calendar staring back at you as you plan your year. It lets you see where you have room to make something great and where you’re too busy to take on any more. I love the way these came out and I hope you do too.
