This was such a great video! I hope it finds a lot of people. If people approached their planners this way there would be a lot less planner hopping. I did the same thing in my cousin weekly for the first few months of last year- I’d change layouts and try it for a few weeks etc. I ended up liking the layout of a Nolty planner. It’s really easy to draw into the cousin (I think I draw in 5 lines) and I really don’t mind doing it so I can continue to have the daily pages. I’m not sure if you’ve heard of her but there’s a UA-camr who used to post videos about uses for the various Hobonichi planners. She highlights how flexible they are. I think it’s Yokiko sakamura (I could be off). I think you would like her. Her videos are dense with possibilities.
My brain tend to think vertically as well; however, I too am easily bored and need interest to keep me coming back . In music, I tend to love variations upon a theme (can you tell that I grew up around lots of jazz and blues - originally from New Orleans) - but I now know that that’s what works for me in a planner. The ability to change it up and experiment. My favorite is usually a variation of the “dashboard layout” which does combine the best of both vertical and horizontally- no matter what my needs are that week. My on absolute in my spreads is incorporating the small monthly calendar at all times - great for reference, etc. I typically frame or highlight it. As usual, my friend Johanna has made an excellent video with lots of great ideas 😊
I like that the lines are visible but very subtle. The only things that I cover when using an alternate layout are the dates but I always keep the small monthly calendar - it is ver handy to me
I’d forgotten about the FESS method, I’m not a video maker I can use this for the steps needed to be done, e.g., when at the hospital, a clinic, etc. excellent. You do the FESY method (film, edit, schedule, UA-cam
Loved your suggestions. I always draw a 7 day horizontal because something about vertical planning. Even when I used ECLP I would draw some blocks. I want to try the Weeks imitation and a couple of the dashboards. I use for traditional future planning of meetings and tasks in a business setting.
Thank you for these ideas! I will try the one where you have the week on one side and blank page on the opposite. Might be just what I've been looking for!
Aloha Jennifer. Thanks for the lovely comments! I have some ideas in the works for the daily pages but due to work, haven't had a chance to get that filmed. I'm hoping to do another video regarding weekly ideas as well as monthly and daily in the next few months. Thank you for watching!
BTW, isn’t it great that there is variety - I really dislike Moleskin and love Hobonichi because of the paper and that it lays open and comes in a variety of colors.

Still watching but love the word of the day page, the foreign words/elvish page, and the book review spread!❤🎉
Love the Elvish name thing!! 👍🤓🖖👽
Please make a part two for this with more ideas 💗
I love a gator mouth journal😊 I’m so torn between a full cousin or an avec.
I'm going to use a Cousin Avec for 2024. It will be my first. I do like that dashboard layout in the weeklie. great idea!

I just found your channel and LOVE the weekly ideas! Thank you 🙏
Great layouts! I need to bring back the fess method. Maybe i will actually post something 😂
You helped me solve my hate of the weeklies and am using some of these ideas now but I was wondering do you have any layout ideas for the dailies?
Aloha Jennifer. Thanks for the lovely comments! I have some ideas in the works for the daily pages but due to work, haven't had a chance to get that filmed. I'm hoping to do another video regarding weekly ideas as well as monthly and daily in the next few months. Thank you for watching!
@@JojozaHannaHawaii I look forward to them when you're able to get them done.
What do you use as a blotter for ink play?
Funny, smite and smitten mean the same to me, that’s the traditional use in literature, I love word origin but I totally missed that one
BTW, isn’t it great that there is variety - I really dislike Moleskin and love Hobonichi because of the paper and that it lays open and comes in a variety of colors.
