Another year has come and gone and whether or not you're into setting goals and resolutions, there is one thing I believe to be helpful for literally everyone: a planner.

Before you get the chance to start stressing about upcoming dates and deadlines, take a deep breath and relax. This list has the best planners for every kind of person and every kind of brain. Maybe you love colorful sticky notes, or always have a trusty notepad on hand. While those are great, sometimes we need something more structured to stay on top of things. And if getting organized is one of your goals for the new year, you've come to the right place.

Whether it's work related, a friend's wedding, or even the premiere of a new show you're looking forward to (hello, Farmer Wants a Wife), you don't want these things to sneak up on you! We've gone through the details of what makes a good planner and heard from Country Living editors about the favorites that keep them on track. Do you prefer hardback or spiral bound? Do like full pages for your to-do lists, or just need a designated place to look over what you have going on this month? Are stickers and pockets important to you or do you like to keep it simple? What about space for budgeting, meal planning, and notes? Whatever it is, we've got it all on this list. And whether you're a teacher, a student, or just a free spirit needing some place to put down all your wandering thoughts, there's a planner for you.

Writing out plans and deadlines is half the work. Okay, maybe not half, but statistics show the more you plan for a project, the easier it is to get one. So, why not make your life a little easier this year with a planner or new calendar?
