I did a thing. Like, with video. And it's on YouTube.
No, really! It only took me two months after buying a camera, but I did it!
And as I noted on the video notes, please excuse the weird lighting - the sun is my friend, but only somewhat!
If you don't feel like watching, I don't blame you - and I will cut to the chase.
Mr. Finsbury is new and awesome!
And all sorts of rearranged!
And all sorts of rearranged!
A quick recap:
Forward Planning: The Month on 2 Page is from My Life All In One Place, and I just changed the font. The original file can be found here and the font I used is called All Things Pink which can be found here.
Bullet Journal: The graph paper is a combination of Filofax graph paper and regular graph paper I cut to size and hole punched - I thought about printing some, and then remembered I had a stash of graph paper already, so I went that route.
Reoccurring Task List: The Week on 1 Page is of my own creation, and can be found here. Please, personal use only - and let me know how you like it!
Goal Section: The Goal Worksheets are a previous download, and that post can be found here.
Meal Planning: The Month on 1 Page is from Philofaxy, and I just changed the font to All Things Pink (it's one of my go-to fonts!) and took out the boxes around the dates. The original can be found here and is called "Monthly Planner Dated".
I love this set up. It works. The only reason it appears that it hasn't been is of user error, not system error!
It's not a beautiful system, but full of hastily made daily lists, and that (again) is user error. If I were to be putting more time into it, it would be less crazy-looking!
Any suggestions? And any ways to make everything, well, prettier? I'd love to know!
And of course, any tips on better videos are always welcome!

Really enjoyed the setup. I can relate. Lists and list I make, good tip to use the two colored pens to show what you actually got done.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much!!
DeleteI adore lists, but don't always get everything done, so using the different colors comes in handy rather often!
I really enjoyed your setup video and hooray for posting on YouTube too :-)
ReplyDeleteThank you very much! :D
DeleteI love your setup! Love the idea of using contact paper and then cutting slits-- seriously efficient :)
ReplyDeleteSometimes I end up not using my planner at all, because I'm so unmotivated! It helps to remember what was my point of buying a planner or stationary, etc and how I felt it would help me stay organized. And if you ever feel too overwhelmed by your system--hey, I have a basic month-on-two but I still manage to feel too unmotivated sometimes--it doesn't hurt to go back to basics! When I took a "break" from my usual planning I used a regular notebook and pen and just wrote out daily tasks. When I missed my planner, I went back to it again. :)
This was a great video! Mr. Finsbury's cover is 😍 and I love how you explained everything so well--gives me a few ideas for the next planner I get! xx
So very glad you enjoyed it and got a few ideas from it! That's exactly what I was hoping to do! :)
DeleteI think that something I struggle with, and that you mentioned, is trying to remember why I have all this stuff in the first place! Most of the time, when I fall into that train of thought, it leads to guilt (that I'm not using it) versus inspiration (that it should be helpful to me, not a thing to cause distress)!
Thanks so much for watching! :D
