    Lovely to see you pop up again! I think we’re all over the ‘hauls’ and ‘look at me’ videos that are prompting this endless cycle of new products and new releases. Simplifying and finding what works for you in your life is so much more important! Love seeing the way your journaling has evolved and might take some tips into my own waning journaling practice! 😂

    I’m so glad you came back! Personally, I love that you aren’t planning on doing much purchasing. I’ve gotten “new things fatigue” from all the same stuff many are running out to get but not really connecting with. It stops being about the process and more about the spending at that point. Your personality and passion for what you actually have and use really comes through. It’s genuine and it’s totally relatable.

    I am doing the same thing this year. I realized that I often purchased multiple planners--only to end up using one or two. Once you are clear on what works for you it brings a lot of peace. 😁💖

    Hi Sarah! I love to listen to you talking about your planners and journals! Old or new! I love how honest and funny you are (the hibino made me laugh so much!)! I get lots of ideas from you, I am sure we all do! So, we don't need the new things, we are here for you and everything you want to share with us! I am sure many of us are going through same and want to use more of what we already have... I personally want to not buy any books and if I feel like something is not working, or needs change, I have options already here just waiting their time to be used. So, I love this video! it came in a great time where maybe life changed and what we got on launches last year might not fit the new year... thanks for sharing with us😃

    It’s Weeks all the way for me, too. Any time I’m lured by the next shiny thing, I always come back to Weeks (usually ridiculously quickly). It just works. And my journal is very similar to yours, too. I use a Midori b6 slim and just slap whatever bits I have from purchases, events, even thank you cards from people, it all goes in and makes a wonderfully chunky archive. I absolutely love the fabric cover on your Weeks - beautifully done.

    So lovely to hear your voice again! I hope you and your family are well. I am in a similar place as you with one memory, keeping journal, my five year journal, and very simplified bullet journal, and that’s it. I am so over the FOMO and how oppressive and stressful that trap was for me. While I understand that your new products gets more views, but I am really interested in how you use what you have and how you try something out you saw online instead of buying something new. I think it could be kind of cool for you to share something you saw and then how you recreated that. I know exactly who you were talking about when you made your monthly memory page. Anyways, I’m down for watching anything you share!!!!

    I am in LOVE with the “curtain” cover on your weeks 😊 In 2022 I bought all the planners and man, I felt so bad that I didn’t use all but one. So, this year I decided I am only going to buy what I think I will use and the burden that has lifted off my shoulders has been eye opening! I am using a B6 and a weeks, that’s all I need and even then, the weeks I don’t touch but every month. It feels so great to need very little to be truly happy hahaha.

    OK, first of all, you have a new subscriber here. I so enjoyed this video like no other. It is so validating to those that are struggling like me with all the shiny things in the planner community and your video just reassured me I don’t need everything, and that time is precious. We cannot waste time on 102 different planners when we can make more time and increase our Creativity with just two. I will still use multiple journals and notebooks and even planners but hearing you talk about this so honestly takes away the pressure and guilt. And the no spend- well thats just necessary and smart! Thank you for your inspiration.

    • @sarahmartinezjournals
      @sarahmartinezjournals  Год назад

    No sweat about taking a break or getting your ducks in a row. I like that you have the courage to change things up. I do look at haul videos, but I love watching a few people with their weeks and cousins. I am glad you are doing well. Just think you have taken a stoic philosophically approach to your planning ‘is it essential?’ Is what Marcus Aurelius would ask himself about things. I find myself asking that all the time, and it is helping me finish. my thesis. I am down to my weeks and Thesis cousin. I am too busy to bother with all the rest, so the non-essential tracking went away.
    Oh google when the 2023 calendars can be used again, and I think if you want to use them, you can save them. Who knows what kind of paper hobonichi has than. Just do not know what the future holds

  • @adventuredenali
    @adventuredenali Год назад

    I think it’s so exciting that you’ve reworked everything and simplified and are feeling inspired. I too have seriously simplified this year. Gave up on the Hibino, and the 5-year and the hobonichi weeks! I’m not just in a Midori B6 slim, with grid paper and a single leather cover for it. I also minimalized my writing instruments and am now just using a single mechanical pencil. It feels so good to just journal and not think about what pen to use, what ink color, what journal, what cover, etc. I’ve gotten in the habit of adding two months at a glance in every new journal, which is now where I keep tracking all my scheduling. It’s been great.
    Anyway, hope you have a great time and good luck with whatever family changes will be taking place for you this year! I enjoy your videos in general, so even the ones that aren’t reviews I enjoy.

Process and update videos are some of the most valuable to me, and I always appreciate your honesty when something is not working and why - its very validating to know that I ain't the only one that can't seem to get a tool to work for me, haha.
    With the craziness of this year, I went back to one of my first ever systems: a blank pocket Moleskine notebook that I just slap anything in, on any page just to get it out of my head and somewhere in reality. Then a reference Field Note and a memory keeping Field Note, all in the same TN. Absolutely nothing fancy when I don't have the time, and maaaaybe a strip of washi and a sticker or two when I do.

    I think it’s great that you’re sharing how you’ve downsized. I went nuts last year and over bought things. Thankfully I realized quicklyish 🤓 that I don’t like certain things(planner stickers or a6 size). I made an inventory of what I had amassed and I have diligently been working through everything. I use the stickers to mark workouts. I also started writing morning pages (to help clear my anxiety in the am) and that is helping burn through a lot of notebooks. I’m starting with sizes and paper I don’t like just to get through. RUclips can be about constantly consuming, but I’ve seen several folks trying something different from what they’ve been doing. Spellboundnotes (I think) is great.
    Anyways- it’s always great to see a video from you. Happy New Year.

    Glad to see a new video! Will definitely watch whatever you come up with. Your weeks cover turned out lovely! Great inspiration on the journaling. I have so many blank notebooks of every size they make and I also have two drawer fulls of ephemera and bits and pieces have collected over the years. I keep saying I’m going to do what you’re doing but I overthink everything. Do I want to do it in a pocket size, B6 slim, Standard, wide, A5 or giant journals? Because the stuff I’ve been saving is all sizes from itty bitty all the way up to 8 1/2 x 11 or larger. I look at the larger pieces and think I can cut them up and use them in smaller journals. Basically I overthink everything, therefore the bits and pieces have filled up two drawers lol. And I also get hung up on the order of things. Well certainly now after several years I can’t possibly remember the order in which I received these bits and pieces and does it really matter? Anyone who’s going to be looking at this stuff after I’m gone isn’t gonna be that hung up on the dates or the order of things lol. You figured that out! 🙌🏼. Also here to say that I have been in five different planners this year and it’s only March. I think I’m sticking to the one I’m using currently but I could wake up tomorrow and change my mind. At least I’m using most of the ones I purchased. I’ve just decided that that’s just who I am so my planners are pretty inconsistent because I might use one for two months and then skip two months but I might be in another one during that time. It is what it is!

    • @sarahmartinezjournals

    Just a quick note (not really quick - the note actually got rambly - so feel free to not read it all) to say thank you for the video and glad to see an update.
    I like the aesthetic of the "bunny" journal, it has a vintage type of look to it, but the curtain cover you made - turned out REALLY nice! It definitely has a vintage look to it;
    very beautiful finish. The Culver's cover also turned out nice; I really like the colors. Very nice use of the materials!
    I've been wanting to get into journaling and the very decorative type (actually, even the bullet type) feel daunting. All the decor feels daunting - I'm not sure where to begin with getting all the artsy supplies to start decorating - BUT I really enjoy seeing other people's journals (I mention because you mentioned you may stop making (as many) videos because you won't be purchasing much - yet, I'd still enjoy seeing your journal, and hearing you talk about what you're doing with your journal.
    Despite not know where to start with a journal, I'm still considering getting one for sketching.
    So, I don't necessarily need it to be a current date planner.
    -
    Thanks for sharing your process of journaling with the ephemera. It really helps give me an idea on how to get started with journaling.
    -
    Your Hibino - I'm interested in it; I got interested in it from your previous video on it.
    It might work for me for sketching. As I noted, I don't really need correct dates and such, as I will be drawing over the text and such.
    I'll re-watch to see why you didn't like the paper - since I think it would still work for me, and I like its chunky-ness.
    ok - end of ramble.
    I really hope you decide to make videos showing how you're using your journals, even if you don't buy new journals.
    -
    Take care and have a great weekend!

I have gone to one book for planning and journaling. I bought a 320 page A5 journal from Amazon and put it in my Maverick cover. Simplicity. I have been journaling every day, but there isn’t always a lot to journal on some days. So, for March I’m going to try journaling on an “as needed” basis rather than by the date. Thanks for sharing. I wish you all the best in your upcoming changes. ❤

      I’ve entertained the idea of combining planning and journaling as well. Maybe one day. Glad it’s working out for you!

    How great to hear from you and get a bit of an update! I hope your mid-year event turns out to be not as disruptive and you're expecting. I'm basically doing the same thing you are, though with different notebooks. My planner is a Hobonichi Day-Free a6, for the third year. And my journal is a blank a5 from Danica, as it happens - I'm not quite halfway through it after starting it in 2022 so we'll have to see if I can "finish" it my the end of this year.

      Thank you, Barbara! Love how simple you’re keeping your lineup, too. At the rate I’m going I won’t have my Danika notebook finished till June sometime. It used to bother me to be in a notebook so long but my mindset shifted at some point!

      @@sarahmartinezjournals I love the freedom of an undated or completely blank notebook, too. The monthly overview is plenty for me in a planner and I always check it before I decide what' I'm going to aim for on a given day. Plus I'm extremely unpredictable about how much room I need.

    I love everything about this video. I'm currently trying to simplify and minimize my process. I want one planner and one journal as well. I love my weeks, but have been in personal size lately. I think about going back to my weeks often, but then I have all this guilt about the leathers I bought for my personal size. Anyway I'm over all the spending as well (I have spent way too much over the last year) and I'm in the same mode of use my stash before buying more. Fomo definitely plays a big part in this. I appreciate you sharing this with all of us. This is so helpful for my brain and anxiety. Thank you! 💙✨️

      Fomo is the worst! I think I’m so disgusted by this point that anytime I see a limited edition release I’m immediately repulsed. Best of luck!

    Would you ever sell some of the things that you haven't used? I would absolutely be down to redate a bunch of stuff and have done it before when I've purchased from others.

    I am 100% having planner remorse re: my 2023 Hobonichi Cousin. I went back to work, so I was *sure* I would use/need/enjoy the extra space. Not so. I am ready to jump back into the Weeks, which I have used for the past 3 years. What was I thinking?

    Hi Sarah! Do you have a link for that 24 hour sticker? It looks like it goes from 12 midnight to 11 pm as the last hour, and does it fit the weeks grid?

      It doesn’t fit in the weeks grid BUT you can message her and she will size it correctly for you.
