    Love this. Nobody in my circle knows how obsessed I am with planners. I know they wouldn’t understand so I don’t even try to tell them. My husband knows somewhat because he sees all my planners and he hears me listening to all of you guys. I don’t have as many as you because my brain can’t function like that lol. I get overwhelmed. I’m new to this world but I love it. Thank you for making me feel like I’m not crazy and others feel the same way I do. “Because I want to!!!!!”

    Yes but why so many planners 😂 Love all these choices! It’s like I say to my sister when she asks why I need so many journals/notebooks/planners, why do you need so much makeup, or why do guys need so many tools, or cooks need so many kitchen tools.. . because, life! 💌

    I So love what you Said....“If you are not about this life, you do not understand this life” how true that is. No one in my family or friends circle understands my love for all things planners/journals ! I am happy I can go online and find my people Lol! Love your line up, great video!

    I've said it before but you make me better as I've quite a few notebooks and diaries on the go too. Your 10 books all makes sense to me!

    No judgment here! I’m using 12 for 2020 ! It is easier to compartmentalize different interests and uses in their own dedicated book;)

    Is it really about having so many planners or about having various notebooks, each used for its individual type of information/data? I can understand having an everyday carry calendar/planner with a desk planner at home for backup (and maybe a computer version of the same). Keeping more calendars would be sheer drudgery over time - and could lead to missed appointments or, Heaven forfend in my case, hearings - when something entered in one calendar gets missed in another.
    What you do is to keep a calendar or two and various analog journals and data keepers. It makes sense to me!

    I'm so glad you made this video. My husband kept asking me why I need so many planners and notebooks lol. I'm a writer too and with so much going on in my head, getting it sorted on paper gives me peace and a sense of order.

    OMG YES!! Apparently ‘because I want to’ isn’t the answer people are searching for when I give it to them! Haha I love having multiple journals and planners. My mood changes throughout the year and with it so does my choice is planner or journal. I have different journals and planners for different things and I am totally ok with that. I didn’t used to be but turns being yourself is the best!! Also, most recently my planner helped me get my new job. I am who I am :) loved this and your other videos!

      cindybin2001 I just can’t believe they found your details. Suppose it’s easy these days. I am a MUA so my details are everywhere really. But do need to be careful with where I provide them. Happy planning 😊😘

    @stellalima-nieves540 5 років тому +3

    Because you want to is perfectly acceptable. I’ve tried to keep everything in one notebook and have failed miserably. I also like to section out and compartmentalize all things. All in ones are great if you can do it, but I don’t seem to be one of them. And just like you, I just want to. Enjoy all your notebooks/planners!

  • @busymommat

    Why not? I don't think that you have to explain your choices to anybody. If you want to use 1 or 21 planners it's your choice. I love this time of the year with all the line ups. It's interesting for me to see how people use multiple planners and journals, even if I use just one planner

  • @martin7878

    No judgement here! I have so many notebooks and TNs and I’m NOT SORRY! LOL. I just go with it and have fun. I know it seems crazy or obsessive but I’m happy. Why do I have so many planners and journals? Because I can!! That’s why I don’t share my instagram with friends or family. I only share my instagram with those I know are as obsessed with planners and notebooks like I am. It’s not normal but who wants to be normal??? LOL. Love this video!! You go Sylvia!!!

      Haha! That’s so true! Although I try to ask people if they journal or plan! It’s a fun question to ask because you might learn something new! I recently asked a woman at church if she makes resolutions and she shared about choosing a word and a verse for the year! It was inspiring!

    I have a few planners, many notebooks and a few journals. I have hundreds of colored pencils as well as hundreds of pens and markers in EVERY color. Hundreds. When ever I am asked why I say because I like them and yeah I am an obsessive compulsive hoarder. Plain and simple. I like your collection ☺

    @mellbelle81 5 років тому +1

    So one thought I’ve had is the fact that I write things down in multiple calendars and somehow I still over book days or miss the info. That is something I’m not sure how to rectify. I was seriously wondering if all I need is a journal!
    I dunno! I only started using calendars like 5 years ago. It’s just so funny. I love the dates, love the calendar. But still can’t seem to make it work for me. Oh well.

    • @calisongbird
      @calisongbird 2 роки тому

      That’s your problem. You’re writing things in multiple calendars so it’s easy to miss stuff. Use just one calendar and I bet your problem will be solved.

    • @mellbelle81
      @mellbelle81 2 роки тому

      @@calisongbird yes, I think the hope was that if I write the events in each place then no matter which one I’m picking up I will have the info. I’m down to one calendar on paper and one on my phone. If I don’t have one with me then I have the other. But it still can be a problem that I double book but I also forget to look at my calendar before saying yes to soemthing. I’m def getting better at it, as this comment was from 3 years ago. Have a great day!

    Omg so funny. Dont feel bad about the reading. Ive read like 23 books. My goal was 100 but life got in the way. The Wheel of Time Books are really good. Ive only bread the first 4. I think Brandon Sanderson took over after Robert Jordan passed away.

    My question is not why do you have so many notebooks, but where do you find the time for so many and still get anything done? I struggle with a minimalist bujo and a bible verse a day journal. What's your secret? ❤🌅🌵

    Here’s your answer: For the same reason ppl have so many different apps, streaming services, social media log ins, e-mail addresses for business and personal...each provide what the person is looking for/trying to connect with depending on what they need 🤷🏾‍♀️
    Planners are simply a paper version of what we all do electronically 😂 I realized this earlier today 😂🤣
