WOW! This video was exceptional and extremely thorough. Back story: I’ve used a FP for years at work - then got caught up in the contemporary planners available. Probably haven’t used a FP for 20 years. I never used it the way you have described. I just learned SO MUCH from this video. You explained EVERYTHING about this system and why you plan the way that you do. THANK YOU TONYA - so glad I found you. I’m thinking of going back to FP - you really opened my eyes on how I could use this in my personal life as a fantastic resource to keep everything together. My take away and what I remembered is that you can roll over a lot of those sections from year to year. What a professional production you’ve produced here 💕💕💕
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave feedback. You left this comment 3 weeks ago, I'm not sure how I missed it and sorry about that. Have a great day.
agree, this is an exceptional video. i've strayed, as well, but i always seem to come back to franklin. even when using other planners, i am mindful of the comprehensive franklin approach
Thank you! Her videos are fantastic. My generation is into storing things on our devices and our computers, but when they’re not charged or become damaged, we’re lost. Her videos have given me the instruction and clarity I needed. Most of the vids on here fall flat, but this channel helps take professionalism to the next level. I’m so happy I found it.
I haven't used FP since the 80's. It was required by my employer and they paid for it each year. I too was distracted by all the other options. I've just discovered this video in 2022, but I'm going to check out FP again for 2023 supplies.
Thanks so much for the "big rocks" reminder. Sometimes productivity makes us blind, and we forget about real life. Love from Spain, planner sister 🖤
Hello in Spain! Thanks for watching!
I just got my new planner after not using one for 15 years. My biggest problem with planners in general are consistently using them.Ive started getting into the habit of every night bringing my planner into my bed with my pens and markers and working on it before bed which lessens my anxiety as everything is there and planned out for the next day.
Hey. You are doing the right thing by trying to open your planner daily. That solves half the battle of being consistent with your planner. I actually try to open my planner in the morning while I'm getting dressed and at night. Thanks for watching. 🌻
Tonya, I absolutely love your videos! I just ordered my first franklin covey planner. And I found an awesome shop on Etsy...dear planner that has all the main inserys for the compact size! JACKPOT! Thanks for all your videos, I'm going to binge them all today! Have a blessed day♡
Hey hi! Thanks for watching!
Years ago I was introduced to FP and used it religiously. (That's a good thing - I was a pastor! LOL) I also brought in Joe Smith, Hyrum Smith's brother, to train my whole staff, and bought FPs for every staff person and spouse. They were terrific! Then came Palm Pilots, etc., and slowly but surely people started migrating to digital formats. Nobody kept notes as carefully as when they had a Franklin! After I retired, I tried a few other planners, but came back to Franklin. Not only is it "old shoe comfortable," but your fabulous video came me some great ideas on setting it up afresh. Love your presentations!
Oh wow! Hello! What an honor to be taught by Hyrum Smith’s brother! Thank you for watching. 🤗
This is the best video on the Franklin Planner that I've seen! I have never used the FP and have been curious for some time but haven't felt like I could find a good explanation of everything. Thank you so much for such a detailed video - really helped give me a clear picture of it.
Hi Katie. Sorry for late response. I don't know how I missed it. Thanks for watching!
Hi Tonya, thank you so much for this video. Very thorough and a wonderful video for those new to the FC system. I’m just researching the FC planner system as I’m considering using it for next year. I found this video to be a great help. I’ve liked and subscribed! Off to watch some more of your videos now! 🖊🌟
Thank you for being so professional and informative! You do a great job of explaining why you do things without taking a lot of time. Thank you!!!!
Thank you for watching. I appreciate your feedback.
Thanks for another great video, Tonya! I learn something new to do with my planner every time I watch one of your videos!
Cheryl Yunker 🌼 Hi Cheryl. Thanks for watching my friend.
I love your videos! They always inspire me when I am working in my planner! I would love more info on your planner routine. My routine is always changing and I would love some fresh ideas. Thanks again for the great content!
Hi Shannon! Thanks for the suggestion and thanks for watching.
Another great video Tonya ❤️ You have such a clear and informative way of explaining how to use different parts of the planner and how each person can make it work for them. I’ve just ordered those daily essentials stickers after seeing your video review and can’t wait to start using them in my Blooms planner.
Hey Jeanette! Those every day stickers are the bomb dot com!
I just have to thank you so much for this video! Your planner is so practical and organized and easy to understand! I have such trouble figuring out my planner. I am going to use some of your ideas for my own planning system! I just subscribed!! You are amazing!!! 😊
Oh wow hi! Sorry the delayed response. Thanks for watching and thanks for subscribing. I appreciate you! 🌹
Love that I found you! I’m new to franklin planners and I felt like I was missing a lot in my setup! Thank you so much for sharing all these amazing tips!! ❤️
Oh yay! Glad you found it helpful, Amanda!
This video was awesome Tonya! You left nothing out and as always you gave great ideas on how to make full use of your planner. Thanks again for sharing
londasereman Hello hi! Thank you for watching my planner flip through!
I want to say, thank you!! I just happened to find your videos and I actually put together my planner!!! It has been in the works since January 2017! I actually took Stephen Covey class three decades ago, but circumstances got me off track. Better late, than never is my moto. Blessings
I just purchased a Franklin Planner and was searching UA-cam for advice and explanations. I stumbled upon your channel and love your detailed videos. Just subscribed! Looking forward to going back and watching the older videos. xoxo, Swoozie
swoozebird Oh yay! Thank you for watching!
Thank you...I changed my planner around and added things to make it more functional and easier to use.This was a lot of fun.I would love to see more and you have a new subscriber.
Yay! Thank you for the feeback and thank you so much for subscribing! 🌻
I really appreciate your professional approach in producing your videos. I think it would be fair to dislike with comments. Thanks for keeping the pen-paper dialogue growing.
Hey Toc Town! Thank you for being the first to leave a comment my friend. I hope you have a great day.
agree, this is so professionally done, i love it!
Thanks for another great video Tonya! I recently got the Ivy binder in teal and I love it!
Karen Jaquish 🤗 Oh yay! I love the Ivy binder. Great quality.
Thank you Tonya. Looks like your FC Planner is keeping you super organized. I, too, plan to use a magnet now on my monthly calendar marking the current week. Great idea! Your home looks very pretty too. The stripes were a great, super creative idea and looks very nice! Good job, Tonya. Inspiring video including...............reading Bible verse, etc. I'm going to now watch another one you made. Thanks again. I love to learn more & become more inspired.
Hi Theresa! Thanks for watching. My husband was skeptical about the stripes on the wall idea at first, but then he liked how it turned out. I plan to do a similar thing in another room but instead of stripes, I want to use a damask stencil...we'll see how that turns out. :)
Very good video. You’ve given me a lot of good ideas on using my planner to really get things done!
Sewlimitless Hey my friend. I’m glad you found it helpful. 👍🏽
I love watching your videos and how thorough they are. I attended Franklin Quest time management training seminar in the early 90s and absolutely loved it. With the latest planning community that’s popped up over recent years, I started bouncing around to all these new trends, but I always find myself coming back to Franklin Covey. Thank you for also being an advocate and being so instrumental in training people how to properly use the Franklin system. Keep it up, love the videos! ❤️
Yay! Thank you for watching, Debi!
I love your videos! Thank you for putting them out here for us to view. I also love that Watermelon binder! I was going to get one but by the time I went back they were out that selection. The Foodie packet looks neat! I have been wanting to get that one as well. Very nice set up and nice video!
Susan Steele-Moore Hey Susan hi! Thanks for watching my planner flip through. The watermelon binder sold out quickly unfortunately. 😫. Take care and stay safe my friend.
Very informative and helpful! I love your foyer wall!
Valley Haven Family School Thank you! I love how the foyer turned out too!
I so enjoy your videos! You use the desk-sozed 7 hole half page arrangement like I do so I can relate better, plus you focus on the practical use of the planner. I mean that *is* the purpose of one after all! I got some new ideas so thanks again!
Hello! Thanks for watching!
Thank you & a big hug to you! Tonya, I recently returned to the original FC planner after using the 5 Choices for 18 months. I was searching UA-cam for FC tutorial & found your video, I watched it twice because it has many good ideas. You are a great instructor. Nice foyer. I pray you & your family have a Merry & Blessed Christmas.
Hello Suzanne. I’m so glad you found our little community! Happy holidays to you as well.
Your videos are so thorough! ThankYOU
Hey Helen! Thanks for watching!
Just found your channel and I'm going to binge watch all your videos now! I love functional planning and really like your style.
Vegan Organizer Hello! Thanks for leaving a comment because now I’ve discovered YOUR channel. I just subscribed. 😉
@@TonyaPlans Aww, thank you! I hope you enjoy the channel. I haven't managed to post anything in a while, but I'm hoping to make some new videos soon!
Just found your channel but I am LOVING your videos!!!!
2boysmom 🙂I’m so glad you found my channel. Thank you so much for watching. 🌼🌸
Thanks for the discount code! I just ordered my compact, day on 2pgs, original/green & white, planner pages for 2021 and a new storage binder (1 got stomped on when I was moving).
Karen Lebeter Hi Karen! I hope you love your new planner items!
I LOVE the monthly index idea!! Definitely gonna implement that one :)
Yay! The monthly index can be very helpful. Have a great day!
I am so glad to find another Franklin Covey planner person!!! I thought I was the only one in a sea of Hobonichi users!!! Loved your video so I am going to do some binge watching this weekend, I can tell. I am preparing to order for 2021 and already from this video I saw some forms that i was not aware of or had forgotten about. Gosh, I must have gotten my first Franklin planner back in the mid 1970s. But it wasn’t Franklin planner then. Don’t remember but it has been a long time. I am now retired for nearly 3 years and I still love using my planner but would like to feel more purpose in my retired life.
Hi Alice. I think planners are a must especially for retired people like yourself. 🙂 If you don’t make plans, the days can get away from you. Thank you for watching.
Hi Tonya. Thank you for this AMAZING video!! It is so good to watch a proper throughout video ♥️ Tonya, can you please share a list of things to do (planner routines) when we open our planner? I cannot read your list.
Super, thank you! Very interesting about using Planner to track cycle and tying into increased appetite. Not sure why anybody would down vote your videos, I think your videos are great!
Aww thanks Sola! Yes, I use my planner to track cycle. It's very helpful.
Thats gorgeous!
Thank you! 💞
I hadn’t thought of keeping my mos together and the planner pages in back.I like that idea.Im going through my FP with you.
Oh my goodness! How did I miss answering your comment? Anyway thanks for watching my friend.
No worries my friend
Great video! Lots of useful information.
Thank you my friend. 🙂
This was really helpful! Thank you.
Thank you for watching Melissa!
I love the binder! Beautiful!
Hi Kristin! Thank you!
@@TonyaPlans I use the FC compact size - I just went back to it in July after trying other types of planners - I love my FC daily pages! I use the Classic size The 5 Choices wirebound for work - I love the weekly layout for work. I might try keeping my monthly tabs together. So great to see someone planning more like I do! Thank you for sharing!
@@chatterboxbudgets The 5 Choices planner is a great planner. Thanks for watching. 🤗
Wow, what a great setup video! I have been retired since 2013, but I used an FP for many years and through a number of job changes. This has made me so nostalgic for the sheer functionality of these planners. It looks like they have added a ton of new forms since I retired and I kept seeing ways I could adapt it to my (very simple!) Bullet Journal setup. The only thing I disliked about the planner was that I needed to take sheets out of the binder to write on them. I'm left-handed and the rings were just too big. I'm going to go over to the website and see what else Franklin Covey has been up to in the last few years!
Hello Barbara...I hear that complaint a lot about ring bound planners---about the rings making it hard to write. Thanks for saying that because I'm going to do a video on that topic. Thanks for watching!
Hello Tonya, New Subbie #2.39K I just found your channel in my newsfeed. Great info and clear instructions... Your voice is very soothing and you are well spoken! TFS You Rock!!! BTW I will be doing some binge watching...
Hi Deborah, sorry for the delayed response. Thank you so much for subscribing. I'm glad you found it helpful my friend.
Another awesome video !! 😀(By the way, I saved 💰💰💰 $ 30 with your "TONYAPLANS" code) 👍👍👍
PS. The painted stripes in your foyer came out SUPER Awesome !! 😀😀
Casey Rose 💛 Hey Casey! Thank you for watching. I love how the stripes came out in my foyer. 🤗
really, really love this. I love the franklin system, and you've showcased its components, and discussed it in such a meaningful way - thorough, practical, personal and relevant. Thank you! i'm so sad they discontinued that gorgeous binder :(
Hi Tracy! Thank you for leaving a comment.
@@TonyaPlans thanks for reminding me of how great the Franklin system is...i think i'll be using your code soon :)
I really learned so much! Thank you!
Hello Kathy! Thanks for watching!
Great video!
Thank you my friend! 😀
I love planners!
Regina Crystal 👌🏾 Me too!
I’m Japanese.
Your English is very easy to understand for non-native English speakers.
Oh yay! Thank you so much for watching.
Merece estar no topo a cada curtida eu volto pra ouvir de novo .🙏🏽
A great video with lots of great tips!! Thank you!! Do you like the classic best?
Hi Monica! Thank you for watching and leaving a comment. I was in the compact size but I like the extra room that classic offers. What size do you use?
That's the one I wanted but too expensive for me so I decided on the pink hardcover happy planner.
Hi Taylor. Is the pink hardcover happy planner a ring bound binder? Or is it a disc-type cover? The watermelon binder shown in video is around $67 with the discount promo code.
I'm using the pink hardcover Happy Planner too! There don't seem to be many of us out there...
Sometime could you do a video focusing more on how you set up/organize your routines? Great video as usual, thank you.
Sure! Thank you for the video suggestion.
Thanks!
I just found your channel and I’m loving it!! Where did you buy the tabs in the back. For expense and different things?
Hi. Are you referring to these forms? amzn.to/34iFAtX
@@TonyaPlans it was the starter pack. I finally found them😊
@@chuckjen8 Oh okay!
Hi Tonya....I really like your videos. This one is especially good. Getting some good ideas. I checked the pen links. I’m wondering what kind of pen the silver pen is and where to get one.
Hi Amy. The silver pen is a Cross Edge pen. I think they sell them on the FP website and other places.
Thank you, Tonya. Does yours have an added grip at the bottom?
I notice you show a future yearly planning calendar. When can you get the next year's version of that, iow get 2022 as you are going in to 2021? Thanks in advance.
Hello. Sorry for the delayed response, I must have missed this comment. In my 2021 Carrara planner, I got future planner pages for 2022, 2023 and 2024.
Two questions I had about this specific video:
How did you construct the “DIY Notebook” Tab?
Where can I get the “Medical record info,” mentioned close to the end of the Video, right before the “Website Tracker” forms?
(seen about timestamp 32:45).
John V Johnson III 💚 Hey John hey! For the notebook tab, I used a tab divider from the FC Gingham Farm tab dividers pack and used one of the tab stickers provided in the pack. The Medical record info can be found in the Starter Pack. I hope you have a great day!
Great video! I used a Franklin Planner many years ago - I think I need to go back to this planner! What is the name of the silver pen?
vcjtx Hello! It’s a cross edge pen!
Tonya Plans Thanks! I thought it was Cross but wanted to make sure. I love big pens.
You may have already covered this elsewhere, but can you talk about why you use 2 pages per day as opposed to 1 page per day? I’m trying to decide if I should make the switch from 1 page per day to 2 pages per day.
Hey Alex hi! Sorry for the delayed response. I just saw this message. I choose the 2 pages per day because I thought I would have work notes, journaling or other notes to write each day. The reality is somedays I don't have time to write on the notes pages but I do try to at least write a couple of sentences about what happened that day. I'm into genealogy research and believe in the value of a person documenting their life. 🙂 Anyway, if you don't feel you will use the notes pages on the 2 pages were day, you can always stick with the 1 page per day and use the cut-away notes pages to insert notes as needed...I actually may try that in the future. Take care.
who gives you a thumbs down? u r amazing
Aww you are too sweet!
Good video
The paper and pen girl Thank you my friend. 🌸
Where can I find a pull out calendar that you are using for weight tracking, etc?
Hi. amzn.to/3oDWlaM
Do they carry the same inserts without the green border?
Hey Happy. Absoluety, there are planner inserts with the same format but in different themes and colors. 🌼
Does your hand hit the rings when you write in your planner? It;s the one thing that concerns me into getting one with rings
chronicfish 🏆🥉Hey there. Thank you for the question. Sometimes when I write in the appointment schedule section, my hand hits against the rings but it’s not a problem for me unless I’m trying to write neatly. If I want to write neatly, I simply remove the page from the planner, write on it and then put it back. Sometimes I try to write neatly if I know I will be taking a picture of the page for Instagram. But MOST of the time, I lift my hand up to avoid hitting the rings while writing, if that makes sense. My handwriting doesn’t look as neat when I do this but i don’t mind because my planner is for me and not other people. I have been asked this question before so I might do a video on it to demonstrate. Sometimes your concern deters people from wanting to get ring bound planners but personally, I don’t think that is a good enough reason to avoid ring bound planners. There are too many other advantages to having a ring bound planner like the ability to change inserts whenever you want. What type of planner do you have? I hope you have a great day. 🔆
Concerning bumping into rings when writing, a frequent problem for me. I am left-handed but my solution might work in reverse for right-handers? (I do not write with a hook.) On the left page I write normally, with a forward slant. On the right page, I angle the binder/book a bit and write with a backward slant, and then I do not bump into rings. I do this in bound journals and even Spiral notebooks as well.
What sections do you archive?
Amy Caasi 🤎Hmm. When you say archive, are you referring to keeping old planner pages in the storage case and sleeves? If yes, then my answer is that I archive everything especially since I journal on the daily notes pages. I want to be able to go back and look at what I wrote. Plus, I do genealogy research and understand the value of keeping records of life events incase someone wants to research me years from now. Thanks for watching, Amy!
Lady, you sure know how to do a LOOK.
💞
Hey. ??? Not sure what you mean. 🙂
New Subbie. Thank you!!!
Ms. Smith Oh yay! 🤗 Thank you so much!
I think I will use two different planners. There just isn't enough room in anyone planner lol
Linda Belardes Oh okay!
Serious question, why do you constantly rub the binders over and over at the beginning of your videos when talking?! It’s kinda odd and cringey. When speaking, we can still understand that you’re about to explain info on the binders/planners without rubbing up on the binders.
Hi Maria! I like the way the binders feel. Some are soft and some have texture. Have a great day!
