    Are you guys functional planners?

      The Organized Money I definitely am a functional planner! I actually purchased the hourly and weekly planner layouts for my home life planner as well as my work planner so that I can keep up with all my traveling and weekly meetings. Need to grab the colorful boxes stickers.

      @korkeshaarrington7223 5 років тому +1

      Yes ma'am I will say I'm a functional planner. And I like to color code or color block. It has to catch my attention without overload. But I like using stickers...only in my home planner though. TFS!!!

    • @GraceConyersDirtologist
      @GraceConyersDirtologist 5 років тому +1

      All functional all the time. To the point where some other planner people think I'm boring.

    FINAlly! I would love it if planner people would post more of these for us to get ideas On how to use the planner.
    And also how to actually decorate them.
    More of these types of videos pleaseeeee thank you!

    • @TheOrganizedMoney
      @TheOrganizedMoney  5 років тому +1

      crownjewels4 Thank you! I’ll work on one for decorating ideas also....😁

  • @jenlovesjesus
    @jenlovesjesus 4 роки тому +7

    Good, sensible advice. I like this better than the overly fussy, over-stickered planning that ends up looking like wallpaper, with barely any room to write. (Don't get me wrong, I like stickers. I just don't get crazy with them.)

  • @paulaloew3889
    @paulaloew3889 3 роки тому +2

    Alaina. Thank you! So difficult to find planners with good organizational tips and not only decoration (deco is great but the goal is to go through that list of tasks 💪🤸🤸). 😘😘

  • @PrettyRyanTravels
    @PrettyRyanTravels 5 років тому +20

    I haven't seen anybody do such a great job using the hourly format like yourself!! Great tips for hourly and great tips for any planner style. The colorful boxes really give you that pop of color and draw you in to the most important things for your day!

  • @jv_25_4eva
    @jv_25_4eva 5 років тому +13

    Yes! Yes! Yes! I am truly a functional planner. I tried to decorate heavy, but it honestly overwhelmed me and I couldn't really see what I had to do. I do like some stickers though.
    My favorite tip was #8. I write all these to-do's, at one time, with the hopes of getting them done, but then life happens. It honestly causes unnecessary stress. I am going to trying "planning as you go" next week and see what happens. I think it will help me get in the habit of preparing for the next day.

  • @PrettyRyanTravels
    @PrettyRyanTravels 5 років тому +8

    The bonus tip is perfect! I keep my planner open at work on my desk. I started doing that about a month ago and ive already seen an increase in productivity!!

  • @barbarad.517
    @barbarad.517 5 років тому +3

    Great functional tips! I use my planner for real life and not as an outlet for artistic expression. I love your practical, useful approach. Thank you!

  • @kimberlyvisionslife9980
    @kimberlyvisionslife9980 5 років тому +2

    I have stickers galore but I find I don’t use them as much. It’s like I need the perfect spread or I won’t plan anything. I love your tips, especially the bonus tip of keeping your planner open at all times. I will try that.

    I have the Otto 2019 Goals planner and it is set up really functional that it incorporates a lot of your tips. Especially side bars which has a 3 goals list, reminder and notes section, the top bar that has an inspiration of the week and a reflection column, and bottom goals and tracking. It has a section for goals, reminders, and gratitude. While in the main section it has 3 daily priorities and two smaller boxes beneath for extra notes or stickers. I loved this video. Gave me some ideas for how to use the sticker sheets inside. I like the idea of using arrows to signify how long a task takes and I think I might give that a shot since I used pomodoro to time estimate.

    I love that you use the Happy Planner system. This makes your channel much more relevant to me.

  • @snowleopard7952

    I too still write down my plans onto paper, and also use the calander on my I-phone. Good to see others are still doing this🌈🙂

    I just bought a happy planner and could not find anyone creating a functional planner! They just cover them in stickers. They are really pretty, but I want to actually accomplish something. Thank you for sharing your tips!

    Thank you for sharing function on planning - I've gotten away from the "pretty" planner with stickers as I no longer have time for that now, but this really works for me, especially for the planner I keep at work!

    Thanks for sharing this. I use a Big Happy Planner cover, but it's more like a frankenplanner inside. I've cobbled together various planner components & use bullet journal icons + some stickers. It seems to be working fairly well. I like the brain dump half page idea a lot & am going to incorporate it into my planner.

    Nice video. I guess great minds do think alike! I probably do all 10 of these! I've had an actual paper planner for over 3 years. And i love it! Soo far my favorite has been the franklin covey binder kind. I have a video on my channel how I have mine set up. Tho next year i wanna try a filofax kind and in a smaller size.

    Nice job! I'm a functional planner. I discovered Happy Planner and stickers, and was wondering how to merge it all. Thanks for the tips. Please, what bag(s) do you use to carry your planner everywhere, everyday???

  • @tidegirl6526
    @tidegirl6526 2 роки тому

    I would love to see if you have any tips specific to planning in a dashboard planner. I have switched to this as I have more "do it sometime this week" items than "do today" but I can't figure out what I want to use all the dashboard boxes for. The happy planner categories they preprint here suck! Lol

    I absolutely love how functional planning looks, but for some reason for me it never works. If there is nothing to draw my attention I’m not going to look at it or even remember it’s there. I also don’t think my life has gotten that functional yet 😂.
