52 Life Admin tasks to add to your planner this year

A reader asked me for a life admin to do list which I thought was a great idea. I usually just add these tasks to my planner as they’re nearing their due date or as I think of them, but I agree a reference list to add to the back of my planner would be handy!

So I typed out all of the life admin tasks I could think of and ended up with 52 – 1 task to do for each week of the year. Some of them might not apply to you and your list might need different tasks so I’ve created a printable version of the tasks on this list, and a blank list you can use to add your own. If you’re not as big a fan of rainbow colors as I am, I’ve included a black and white version too.
