The variety of MiGoals options can be a little overwhelming if you don't already have your go-to. We've done the dirty work and got our heads around the options for you.

We'll take you through the four inside formats. Goal Digger, Weekly Spread, Weekly Notes and, the every so popular Daily Goal Digger. Feel free to skip ahead to the one you're after or stick around here to get the lowdown on all four.

Welcome to our definitive deep dive into MiGoals diaries for 2023. We hope it helps you find the best companion for the new year.

MiGoals Diaries for 2023

1. The Goal Digger

About the 2023 Goal Digger Planner

First up, it's the Goal Digger. This one is the original and our most popular MiGoals planner

Who is it for?

A must-have for anyone who wants to dig deep, challenge themselves and achieve big things in 2023. If you enjoy a light weekly note or spread design, but feel you have the time and mindset to progress, then this could be the next step. The realistic structure, with its short and long-term goal-setting pages, makes it the ultimate sidekick for smashing all of your goals. The larger format in B5 means it's best as a desktop companion. It'll encourage you to hold yourself accountable whilst it's always in sight. At the same time, it supports you on your journey with breakdown and reflection points and encourages you with tidbits of worldly wisdom from other achievers.

For more portable and first-time options, skip ahead to the weekly notes and spread designs.

Size

It's B5 size which means it measures up at 16.5cm W x 23.5cm H x 2.2cm D. Translated into standard UK paper terms, it's a couple of centimetres bigger than an A5 sheet.

The cover

Let's talk about the cover. It is PU leather - aka faux. The cover comes in a bold, classic or GID design.

Bold has large, shiny letterers emblazoned on the cover. It reads 'Goal Digger' and takes up about a third of the space.

Classic has 'Goal Digger Planner 2023' debossed lengthways on the edge of the cover. It's small lettering and very subtle.
