Hello friends, finding a planner that works best for you can feel a little daunting. Over the course of 2023 I have experimented with a lot of different planner spreads and layouts and finally found a method to help me be consistent. With so many brands and planner types, it can be so hard to choose the one that works best for you, the hobonichi planners I mentioned are listed below, but feel free to experiment with other comparable notebooks!

I love the idea of trying everything and dropping the things that don’t work. It opens up so many possibilities as to what our journals or planners will look like. So helpful and encouraging. Thanks. 😊
I’m so happy you do! I feel the exact same way and think the possibilities make it so fun. Thank you for being here!
What a great idea to throw everything you might want on a planner page down all at once and then see what does/doesn't work. I feel like that is more effective than simply trying to build up to using all the space; also a great way to get the best of both worlds w/function and creativity. Thanks for the tip and an awesome video!
I wish I would have thought to try it sooner! So happy you like it, thank you for being here ❤️
I love the "start at 100" mantra. I'm always worrying about doing something I won't end up liking, but it's a learning process and sometimes going all out is the only way to figure things out.
Definitely a learning process! It’s taken me like 8 months to get here😂 thank you so much for the feedback, I’m happy you’re here!
Your thought process is amazing! Even just a few days into January, I felt frustrated with my planner. I’m so excited to try this method out! Have a great day 😊
Appreciate you so much!!
I used a combination bullet journal and commonplace journal for a couple of years and enjoyed it. Then my job got extremely needy and I switched to strictly functional planning in the jibun techo. It worked well enough considering that I felt forced to use it due to my lifestyle. I look forward to getting back to the bullet/common place journaling style.
I really like how you describe a method for logically thinking through a planner decision. I have tried so many planners in the past…even the hobonichi. I think i just prefer 100% freedom.
I wish I was a bullet journal person I totally envy you 😭 I’m excited for you to get back into it, thank you for being here!
yes, we want your flip through 🎉
Such a great video! It made me realize I was thinking too much when it came to my planner. I was overwhelming myself and not sticking to anything. This really helped me set myself up for consistency.
Thank you so much for your feedback! I’m so glad this was helpful for you, I’m happy you’re here!
Really enjoyed how you broke your process down and love your handwriting. Hope you do more videos
Thank you so much, I’m glad it was helpful. Happy you’re here! ❤️
I’m so glad YT recommended this video to me. Very helpful! Now that the year is about it to end, I’ve been contemplating a lot on the foundation part and I think my decision prior to watching this video pointed that I’m heading to the right direction. Thank you for sharing! This gave me more clarity 😊
I’m so glad you are here! Thank you so much for the feedback 💕 it’s definitely that time of year when it seems like there is SO many directions to go when it comes to planning. I’m so glad this helped!
This video gave me so much insight in PLANNER PEACE!!!! Have a great day as well☺️
I’m so glad for you! Thank you for being here 💕

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT!!!
You’re too kind, thank you! Happy you’re here 💕
Love this video!
I’m so glad! Thank you for being here 💕
so everyone has these thoughts "now it looks ugly", I always thought I was the only one
I think we definitely all have these thoughts which is actually really reassuring, but i know how it feels like you are the only one 😂
Happy Wednesday 🤗 Great ideas & video 💚🍁❤🍂
Happy Wednesday! 💕 thanks so much for being here
Thank you for sharing!! I hope you'll make more videos
I am so excited to make more videos, thank you for being here! 💕
Fantastic video.. thank you so much for sharing, this makes so much sense!! And would love to see an in depth flip of your Cousin.
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed, thank you for being here ❤️
Solid tips. I love seeing the evolution of people’s planners, it’s so interesting. When you described the person who wants all the structure and little creative space that’s me, and my 2024 lineup is a couple of Weeks and an A6 original😂 Nailed it. People that can fill a Cousin fascinate me, I could never lol
It is so fascinating! My favorite part is seeing other people’s processes. I’m glad I got your planners right 😭
I’ve watched a lot of planner videos but I’ve never seen someone describe the method of journaling/planning like this. It makes so much sense though! We have our journals to use in whatever way makes our lives easier or brings us peace so why not throw all our passions and ideas at a book?
I’m so glad you’re here! I definitely feel like we are all a little bit timid when it comes to trying new things or getting outside our routine in our planners. I hope this was helpful for you, thanks so much for the feedback!
Your drawings are beautiful, I thought they are stickers
Thank you so much! Definitely have been practicing. Thank you for being here 💕
"planner vomit" is such a perfect phrase 🤣 Thanks for the vid - great content!
I’m glad someone appreciates 😂 thank you for being here 💕
This is so insightful ✨✨✨ New subbie😊
Thank you so much! Thank you for being here💕
New subbie here, I came out with the same thing you did. I need creativity and journaling. I would say that I probably had the right idea in the weeks mega but this year I got the weeks “Cats and me” because I’m a cat lady lol. I have decided to use hobonichi plain notebooks with my covers -all a6 size. You did make me think about something though…I have never tried a day free and that might solve a problem for me. Hmmmmm, you have a great day too!
Thank you so much for sharing I think the cats and me covers are SO CUTE. I also grabbed some plain notebooks this year so I think those are a great option. You’ll have to let me know if you try the day free!
This is my 3rd year with the cousin and 2nd with the weeks. I love the idea that there is room to change your mind from one page to the next and you showed it perfectly. I would love to see a more in depth look at your planner if you would be willing to do a flip through. Also, would you mind sharing what pen you used in your journaling? Thank you so much.
I’m so glad you liked it! I would love to do a flip through, I use the Zebra Sarasa dry drift grip .5 it’s my favorite of all time!
My problem is that NO ONE has an example of what I need so I’m having to figure out what to set up, along with figuring out what I need.
Yeah I can totally understand this! Maybe just start of with a couple different layouts each week and see which ones you gravitate towards or which elements of layouts you like more than others
I love this so much! Many people focus on flip throughs and it can be intimidating to see, how did you get to this final result? I have tried many different approaches and layouts and given up sometimes or gotten frustrated due to feeling discouraged and discombobulated. Thanks for such a nice, gentle, step by step walk through to show us how you did it. Beautiful journal, btw! and it makes a lot of sense. I am between cat 2 and 3. I tried the Day Free but I ran out of pages in 2 months 😅 (I write a lot, sometimes up to 4 pages a day). I now toggle between a Cousin and a blank Hobonichi notebook, but I’d rather carry just one notebook. I like to use the Days in the Cousin to have some level of consistency, so I might experiment with gluing blank pages into a Cousin in between the days. If you have any other suggestions I would love to know! Thanks again for this soothing video!
Thank you so much for sharing! I really really appreciate your feedback and have felt very similar to you when seeing other peoples flip throughs. That's awesome that you write so much! I definitely am a 1 book girlie too but this year I think I am going to try a weeks in tandem with my cousin. I think gluing pages is a brilliant option, and I will try and think of some others!
i’m getting my hobonichi weeks in a couple days and as the day of it arriving approaches i get sceptical if i’ve made the right decision. this video showed up at the best possible time for me. thank you for such a good video. letting go of the fear of it being messy and the urge of buying new things just for the sake of buying something and making what you have work, is also something i’ve been wanting to cultivate a while. this has inspired me on that front too. sorry for the rant haha i’m wishing you good days 🩷
Oh my gosh I’m so glad this was able to help you! I’ve felt very similarly to you as well and can be really tough. Letting go of that fear is definitely very freeing, I wish you the best of luck! Thank you for being here ❤️
Interesting! My thought with the cousin and techo original was that the cousin was more structured with the addition of the weekly layout. I’ve never used either though so I’m curious to hear your thoughts 😊
Yeah I can definitely agree with that! I think since the original is so small compared to the cousin it feels a lot more limiting. The weekly spreads definitely add more structure but they also give sooo many more possibilities compared to an A6 that doesn’t include them. I can totally see where you are coming from though! Thanks for being here 💕
@@torionpaper that makes a lot of sense too =] thanks for explaining 😊 I’m a person who uses an 8.5x11” planner and a 8.5x5.5” memory keeping journal so my A6 experience is limited
Bit random - what did you tihnk of The Freedom Clause? Read it for book club and love it!
I actually really liked it! I think I gave it a 4 on Goodreads. I thought it was a super unique and refreshing storyline. I’m glad you liked it too!
At 9:14 as you flip through your journal you have some small pictures that appear to be the covers of books you printed out. Can I ask how you printed them? Regular desk top printer or do you have a mini printer like a selphy square?
I just printed them from a regular desktop printer! I adjusted the size to 3x5.5” i believe and just taped them in :)
what pen is that? I love chunky pens lol
Oh my gosh me too, it’s the Zebra Sarasa dry drift grip .5. I’ve never been able to find it on Amazon but I got mine from Cloth and Paper and I think Stationary Pal sells them for cheaper
You might think about your sound. Even with the volume on my phone all the way up i could barely hear you.
Thank you for the advice! It’s definitely something I am trying to improve. Thank you for being here ❤️
@@torionpaper I could hear you perfectly! Love the video! xoxo
I wish I could use the Weeks, but I have such big handwriting that it doesn't work for me.
Darn! The grid is definitely small. What do you use now?
I’m using a Cousin.
@@helenachibas4920 ah I hope it goes well for you!
This is random, what kind of pen you used in this vid ❤
I use the Zebra sarasa dry drift grip in .5 :) it is my FAV!
@@torionpaper awsome thanks! Im a pen lover
@@MrsLopez1 me too!! I'm a sucker for a nice thicc pen lol
4:27 hobonichi is the worst, they either have very big planners or very small, no average planners
I definitely wish they would come out with a B6 size. I think that would be a good option for a lot of people!
@@torionpaper yes, B6 is the right size
