Hi! I know this is an older video, but would be able to tell me how thick of a notebook you could put in there without any overhang? I’m wanting to buy a full size 520 page Common Planner, but not if it won’t fit in one of these covers. Also, thanks for your videos! I always love your channel. 😊

Sylvia, your style of planning is everything I’ve been looking/striving for, TFS!

I just love your videos ! “11 boxes here and then I wrote down there are 4 more boxes [in the bigger book]” - but WHY?? How do you know to use the smaller book or the bigger book? I watched your week 15/16 video last night 3 times and you NEVER noticed it was marked 15 instead of 16 plus when you made a mess of “April” and then Tried to erase it and then washi over it - gosh you are truly funny

We can’t really be sure we are pronouncing it correctly either. So we just say (phonetically) Lehgh-ssssssTURMMM Yes we hold the s that long

I just dropped in after a few years! Life is busy! Have you finished your book yet? 🩷🩷. I’ll have to tune in more often! Love your ideas!

I also write in broken cursive when planning. But oddly enough, if I am journaling, it’ll be in full cursive. Also my 2s are weird too. But it’s my 8 that are wild… I stack two circles instead of doing a loopy loop 8. I don’t know what that says about me but my writing is definitely a hot mess 😅

For me having the pen loop on the inside is a deal killer. You can see that it doesn't settle well inside the cover when you have a notebook inserted.

Not me crying (and trying not to wake up my partner next to me 😂)

I realize im late to the party here, but looking at options orher than my happy planner! On a side note: i use those nesh pouches for everything! I have the coun purse size on my lanyard for lip balms and my inhaler. Makeup bag keeping lip products from getting lost at bottom, as well as eye pencils, tools, etc! In my Go bag to keep like items/essentials organized!

because of mcdonald's here in America we've been spoiled ,, I died that was too funny! just ordered my first a6 journal! I think its gong to help me with the fear of not filling a page lol

This is so good, what stunning work 😊😊

Idk why but the second you mentioned New York I KNEW you were going to talk about rainbow cookies 😂 aka the raspberry jam Italian flag color ones

What notebook fit in the moterm?

Where did you get the cool dates stickers? 💜

I write in broken cursive too and I can't claim to understand why my brain chooses certain letters. i always loop my F like a cursive but i dont always loop my Ls haha. never really heard anyone else talk about it

To be so for real, more than 3 tasks a day is too much for me. So the fact that you had to roll over a lot of them day to day is super understandable.

Oo I liked the MD memo blocks you used I think it was called. I'm always on the lookout on how to use my large sticky notes I accidentally bought, too, so if you have any ideas on how to use those really big ones, I'm all ears. As an aside, I am so happy to be writerly friends with you too. I wouldn't have been writing half as much if you didn't hold me accountable lol.

never occurred to me that I should try placing my pocket notebook on it's side for a larger "page." Simple, genius, and a great gimmick for Bullet Journal to adopt.

Oh, this sounds like a new planner layout someone could design. Thirds is totally a genius way.

I totally get the "this paper is too nice to actually make messy notes on" type of situation!

“Planner Peek!”!!

Great video Sylvia :) I really like the column for signifiers and more. I am going back to your videos explaining your setup, because I'm starting my next bujo (new Leuchtturm woot!) for Monday.

That vellum is beautiful

Girl don't need a pocket journal, she needs Adderall.

This video was such an Aha! moment for me. I don't think I could use this system for daily planning (tasks, meetings, etc.) but definitely vibes with me for project planning.

Cream-out 😂😂 I love that term and think we should all adopt it 😅

Oooooh interesting (also I just had to put that Nolty in my shopping cart, I had it once before and it is such a beautiful planner❤). I like this idea of splitting a month into three sections! Will watch the video that inspired this and also v excited to see sll your following videos too x

I have been using this 10 day planning since I saw your first video on this. It has been a game changer for me.❤

You ramble too much

Consider me confused. Do those really have 46 (A6) *pages* (= 23 sheets), or do they have 46 A5 "pages" (= two-A6-page spreads)? Leuchtturm seems to call the latter "pages" in this case (which would result in 92 A6 pages). At least that's what some information on their website seems to indicate (there seems to be a mention of a whole month of two-page spreads in one journal). Honestly, 23 A6 sheets would be a bit ridiculous.

Thanks for the vid! Where do you get this Nolty/other notebooks?

If you draw additional horizontal lines and use a darker pen, you can use the 'International Holidays' page spread as a habit tracker (or similar). Extra bonus: The months are already there. In this planner, you already have the 'Project Plan' pages which work that way, but an additional tracker might still come handy. Oh, and UTC (Universal Time Coordinated) is basically the same as GMT (Greenwich Mean Time), so the times are for England/UK (disregarding summer time). But that shouldn't affect moon phases in the same hemisphere.

honestly when it comes to writing goals I don't even count words, I mark how much time I want to spend on the project and track how many hours i spent on it. Thats how I'm gonna finish the book anyway, spending the hours working on it!

This was fun to watch. It's always facinating seeing how people talk out their plans on how they are implementing a system. Using google calender doesn't mean you are cheating on your analog systems. I also have that and my paper planner's monthy calender syncked just in case I need to know the plans but the paper calender is not at hand. They also work as backups for each other in case the paper planner is lost or google is shot down. I do appreciate you didn't have any background music going on this time. It's so much easier to consentrate when it's just talking. Thanks again for a lovely episode.

I am wondering if you track the amount of time needed for you to complete certain repetitive tasks, since you mark them by when you start and end. Also a lot of your tasks look to be procedural. How do you quickly identify which are the ongoing tasks? I know you use asterisks to make them completed which is good. I just use asterisks in general to mark them as tasks since I was in middle school. A few years back, I learned the circle-slash method used by the Navy nuke folks I work with, and I think it’s an excellent way to not lose track. I only do that when things get serious though. Google calendar is amazing :D I started using them when they came out years ago, and first thing I did was put in the birthdays of all the important people in my life, and make them recurring. Finally, love your pens! We have a lot of those, I bought a multicolor pack for coloring, but the 0.7mm Zento limited edition(found them at Target) is really nice! Sorry, I am a big pen geek.

I picked purple for August too! I am a month into my first bujo in over a year and I'm feeling refreshed and grounded. Always glad to watch a new upload from you Sylvia:)

I'm so stoked that this approach is still working for you! I've really enjoyed watching how you've taken it and have made it your own. Team Google Calendar for the win! I'll always have an analog calendar because I love the paper record, but for day/time specific stuff, there are just so many things that digital calendars offer. My school district uses Google for Education, so my entire life is synced up and I just find it so practical and functional. Since you mentioned it, the sticky notes I use are the MD grid. I also have the Traveler's Company sticky note insert. Lastly, I love that you have said, "and then and then and then!!!" in more than one video recently. Such a great movie. 😂

This is so good, a fantastic video ☺☺

It’s also A6 but not as wide” - then it’s not A6. The system works like this: A0 is the largest, A1 is half of an A0, A2 is half an A1, and so forth. An A6 has to be half the size of an A5, if it’s narrower then it’s a different system. Now, is this a gimmick? Yes, the same way the A5 BuJo-specific notebook also is. I do bullet journaling and don’t have to buy the specific Leuchturm 1917 notebook to practice it, all I need is paper!

Currently, I use Field Notes and have a wonderful leather cover that allows me to easily carry my Field Notes along with my cards, money and pen in my back pocket. It's essentially my wallet with a pocket notebook! I ordered these BuJo Pocket notebooks and they are SO nice. I like everything about them. The quality, the smart grid, the size for writing and the covers. Only problem, I cannot find leather cover that will fit these as they are wider than a Field Notes and other pocket notebooks. I've tried several. The BuJo pocket notebook by itself easily fits in my back pocket, but any cover that comes close to fitting this notebook makes it too large for the back pocket. As much as I love these BuJo pocket notebooks, not having a cover to use as a wallet it a deal breaker. Great review though. I may still use these as small dedicated pocket notebooks, just not as my EDC.

You might need a large fry if you are sharing with someone, you might buy an extra large drink and split it with someone - or maybe you just want an extra large drink You might need more pages if you incorporate more items in your planners - like reading log, motivational pages, notes - so the “super big gulp” journal may be better Our own personal ideas of what is needed isn’t someone else’s need or want

You have. snoopy pen !!!

Beautiful CK backpack 🎒🖤🖤

❤❤❤ What pen is this?

What does it mean to "activate" a task? Is that different than the day you wrote it down? Or is it the day you were hoping to get it done? Sorry if you said that in the video and I missed it...

Love this! I think I’m going to use this 10 day planning method for like cleaning tasks and maybe fitness, my regular day to day just isn’t busy enough for me to feel the need to group it in this method. Maybe in the future.

I like the idea of splitting the month into 3 like that. It feels less overwhelming than planning a whole month at a time. I also have been using frixion pens too for planning, because I am absolutely a smudger 😂

This looks so amazing ☺☺

Uni-Ball ONE is awesome!!! :D I need to get those Mildliners with brush tips now since I've been drawing with the chisel tips.... brush is always better :D Is it weird that I only care about the writing instruments?
