Sussing out my bullet journal for September with the following tweaks: MONTHLY LOG provides 4 rows/lines per date with a column down the center for 8 bullets or notes per day when needed for things requiring a higher level of attention. I do like negative space so if days aren’t packed with any rapid logging, that feels comfortable. The MONTHLY LOG takes over a spread plus 1 page at the top half (totaling 3 pages for the ML). The bottom half of that page now has a MONTHLY TRACKER. A 4th page is set up as a WEEKLY TASKS/DASHBOARD, providing a general overview of September’s 4 weeks (though it spills onto 5). It’s not a weekly planner it’s just to park things I should aim to check off that week without a specific time (yet) assigned. Then there’s a spread dedicated to finances, which I could place right after the monthly log, instead of the weekly dashboard. I’ll try that for October. Half the spread is for the MONTHS BUDGET and the other half is an EXPENSE TRACKER. All the pages that follow will be DAILIES with the help of a chronodex. The days will flow into columns. No column would be for a specific date. Some days i’ll log two items, others days I’ll rapid log within two columns. Overall this took me minutes to set up. It’s not yet populated with content but the set-up feels simple and manageable. #bulletjournal #bulletjournaling #bulletjournalcommunity #twsbi #deartramentisdocumentink #thesuperiorlabor #baumkuchenstudio #planning #planner #agenda #plannercommunity #planningcommunity #wonderland222 #chronodex

After coffee and journaling. It’s Saturday. We clean.

I viewed this video a few times to help me weigh pros and cons while deciding between a Bullet Journal, or continuing with Franklin Planner.

Stumbled on this planner-related blog today and need to share it. The blogger gives a lot of practical, everyday advice and suggestions for using your planner effectively to get things done.

Worth checking out!

Trying planner cards for the first time. I didn’t find any I could connect with on Etsy, so I grabbed index cards, a ruler and scissors, drafting my own as little prototypes. I’ll edit and tweak over time, then design and print them. #plannercommunity #planner #agenda #organizer #organiser #planneraddict #plannernerd #franklincoveyclassic #franklinplanner #franklincovey #franklincoveyinserts #franklincoveyplanner

I’ll share more layout use cases in the coming days. For now, here is my current plan for using @franklin.planner 7 Habits Daily Planner. For 2022, I’ll be more focused on fulfilling my goals as oppose to daily tasks that don’t give back much in return, or “fill the well.” My aims with this year’s planning is to operate more out of Quadrant 2 (see example for reference), edit my days down when and where I can, and keep my system simple and air tight. Productivity is not the focus. Happiness is. 💗#franklinplanner #franklincovey #franklincoveyclassic #franklinplanneraddicts #planner #agenda #organizer #organiser #planneraddict #plannernerd #franklincoveyinserts

A little color energy from my Classic size Franklin Covey binders. 💗 I can’t get enough greens and am excited about their Aspen Classic in Forest, shipping after Thanksgiving. Their vintage Profiler Deco is sort of filling the orangey slot while I search for a classic in their vintage Charlotte model, in the color Coral. My favorite among all my classics? The Profiler Deco, hands down.

Newest love: the handmade @shibuiph A5 Life Organizer in saddle brown with custom features that include leather trim along the outer zipper (not just grosgrain) with rounded corners, a handle added to the spine and metals zippers inside. I also had one detail removed from the inner right side. I especially love their clever design detail of the adjustable pen loop—fantastic for chunky #fountainpen models. ALSO, their customer service was amazing and I communicated with them via IG DMs. They offer this product in black, a lovely blue, a rich olive and a desert sand color, and I’m certain I’ll be ordering another color or two next year. The construction is simply amazing and to have it customized?! Wow! 💗 Can’t stop admiring this cover and looking forward to using it next year with my @franklinplanner.jp 2022 A5 planner. The A5 Leuchtturm and Hobonichi Cousin will work beautifully as well, of course. #shibuiph #franklinplanner #planner #agenda #organizer #organiser #planneraddict #plannernerd #plannercommunity #hobonichi #hobonichicousin #franklinplannerjapan #leuchtturm1917 #leuchtturm

Love Hobonichi! 💗 These covers have me over the moon.

Current planner conundrums. I enter contemplation-mode every August with the release of planners for the following year. Here are my current thoughts. They change almost daily. I’ll find a solution eventually 🙈

What can I say? I love undyed leather and a good patina.

Love Handstitched Leather T’s B6 Slim notebook cover for the Nanami Cafe Note B6 Slim notebook and Field Notes.

Hobonichi 2022 planner plans: the Weeks Mega Sneaker in Lime will be my reading journal, the Cousin Avec will be part of a review process, and the English A6 Techo continues as my journal. More to come!

My 2022 inserts: a combo of Franklin Planner, Daytimer and Emily Ley for At-A-Glance. The fun part is piecing this all together. More to come!

Phenomenal A5 Zip Organizer from The Superior Leather Goods and Co., in the color “Natural.” Received this today and I can’t stop admiring it. Perfect with the Hobonichi A5 Cousin, Avec and the Franklin Planner Japan A5. Can also be used as a wallet. Available online in the US at Baum Kuchen.

Milloo Bags everyday carry—a wonderful case holding my everyday essentials. I can drop this case in any bag and not accidentally leave any necessities behind.
