Just changed positions & this is a very helpful video!

This is such a great video. Very helpful walkthrough of how to set up goals!

This is so helpful, thank you!

Thank you for making this video I did not have a clue how to fill it out xx

Very cute layout. Where is your travel notebook/n1 cover from?

Thank you so much for this! I often get intimidated by goal setting (especially the "someday" goals) and I love how you made this spread work for you. You have some awesome ideas in here that I'll definitely be using :) Happy New Year!

I ended up putting my Common Planner (TN) in an old Hobonichi Techo cover I had because I was afraid with it being so thick that a Traveller cover wouldn't close over it all the way.

Thanks for sharing this 😊. I use a similar approach but don’t use a title/topics as I use the first column for the vision and the someday column to say how I will know I have achieved my goal or what having reached the goal look like (the why you want to reach the goal, if you like). The rest of the columns I use as you do. I hope you don’t mind a suggestion - it helped me quite a bit when I started doing this - when writing your vision don’t write it as another to-do eg become debt free, instead write it as if you are there, so in this case it would be I am debt free. My next column would then be something like … Instead of paying off debts I can save to retire early, I travel, I can work part time, I can buy a new car etc. Thanks again - I’d be interested in following you through the trackers and quarterly pages as you follow through in 2024.

Thanks for sharing your process. It definitely assisted in my planning journey ❤

Thank you for this! You broke it down so clearly that I’m now excited to do mine! Love to see how everything’s transferred into your planner now

Debt Free! Praise God!

It was good to see the breakdown more clearly with this planner so thanks for sharing. I've created my own pages since I couldn't fit what I wanted into the planner but I've taken some notes from this to incorporate. I easily have more than one goal per category and I'm working to define what is actually a goal compared to projects or tasks. Being a blatant creative my little nudge question for you is where's your category for creativity/fun/recreation? 😉

Great video!!! Thanks for sharing your goal setting process.

I had to maximize your video bc your handwriting caught my attention as some fantasy elvish type of script HAHA then after some squinting I realized it was only cursive with a line drawn thru it. You have beautiful cursive handwriting and I love the simplicity of your planning style!!! Going to go watch your other videos now.

Loved your video and your style: very objective, sharp in what's important and with a positive and energetic vibe. Thank you so much for sharing the way you plan. I also cannot live with thousands of different planners, I need one and only one to make it work. Again, thank you. 🙂

Your style is no nonsense and I’m loving it. Great video👍🏾

hold up Mia, now you have gotten my attention. This is exactly what i feel into for work. And you are right, managing multiple planners is a whole lotta work. My focus for 2024 is getting things done and i found this video super helpful. Thank you for sharing.

This is not only helpful but simple to do, thank you so much for sharing this! 🙌

I like to add a box by using my highlighter coz I personally find them cool and aesthetically nice 😎

I started my planning journey using the monthly. Til this day, the monthly works well. And the weekly pages is a detail kind of (work) planning in order to get it done

This weeks is so perfect! But a bigger hobonichi weeks and 369 pages?? 😱 Edit: it lays flat too???! 😭

You got a new subscriber here! ❤

Congrats on graduating. Finally, I have a use for all of my sticky notes. I love the way you think outside of the box.

The absolute FUNCTION of this blows me away. I love the way you used the yearly spreads in particular - those are always hard for me but I'm appreciating how you take us through each type of spread with practical examples.

Can't wait for mine to arrive and to start using in 2024! Where did you find the cool grey page flags off to the left hand side of your screen? I love how neutral they are, they caught my functional planning eye :)

Please don’t go away! I have learned so much. I am a Mom, FT Student, Caring for an elderly parent and HR Professional and your videos are so informative.

I love your matrix prioritization using sticky notes. First time, I’m seeing someone ever doing this using sticky notes. Great idea!!!

You inspire me so much

I'm glad this video popped up for me. I really like the process before transferring to the planner, I found this really helpful and can't wait to try this for 2024.

Great video. So so useful, you have no idea how much I appreciate this video. Not sure why my brain couldn't come up with this, but so glad yours did!!! Thank you!!

Good tips thank you 🙏

Mia, Congratulations on graduating 🎊🎉 ♥️ and thank you for sharing these amazing tips/techniques with us. I’m curious to know, where would you fit “testing” in the Kanban Board if you had to? I think your approach is so straightforward and no nonsense-this is what I needed.

Thank you for the idea of the „Action-Priorisation-Matrix“! Gabriele from Germany is greeting you. 🍀

Awesome video Mia!! This actually opened my eyes to more efficient ways to organize my tasks for work!! Thank you! Also! What is that pink pen you're using with your TN?

In every effort to simplify my planning system, I just finished mapping this out with you as if it was realtime and I love it. Thank you Mia. I appreciate how this naturally eased me into the headspace to think about the tasks and deliverables I need to, want to, and get to track in my planner. I will definitely be incorporating this in my quarterly planning sessions. 💕

I just subscribed to your channel, you Nate the most like I thing of all I have watched. And our handwriting is even similar. You are the most amazing planner I have found. Thank you for being on and sharing this information.. I appreciate you.

Functional planning, great video !

Great video ! I struggle with how much I want to future plan vs record the past. I wonder if you (or other viewers) for example write down their exercise intentions before hand or wait and document what they did ? Is there a way to do both and if so, what’s the best way? I hate to have lines drawn through all over my planner ….

Thank you for this. I’m Going to try this I think it’s more realistic. I’ve tried so many love this!!!

STICKY NOTES FOREVER 😤😤😤 I do a very similar process for my planners and this gave me some great reminders and advice!! Thank you!

If you end up trying this method, please take a pic and tag me on IG: @papermemia so that I can repost you!

the only sensible guide on the internet 🙄🤦🏼‍♀👍🏼👍🏼

This was extremely helpful! I'm switching from a Cousin to a Common Planner so a little nervous. This was perfect timing! ❤

Gosh how long have I been using planners!?! I’ve never set it up this way…absolutely BRILLIANT and soooo helpful! Thank you 🙌🏻 I’ve been putting off getting into my 2024 planner … not anymore!

So functional! Thank you for showing this.

I'd watch this anyway because I love watching people plan, but I feel like this is the most useful tutorial on planning your planner layout. Very practical! Going to try for 2024 😊

🎉🎉🎉😂❤❤❤❤❤

This was SUPER helpful!! Wow!! Thank you for sharing this. I hit subscribe so fast. And now I’m going to watch all your videos! I got so much from your video!

Are you Charisma? You sound exactly like a KZbinr named Charisma! If you are, it's great hearing you in this forum. If you're not, look her up. She seems like an amazing person. She shares her and her husband's beautiful, typical/nontypical life and journey since they met and to this day.

I relate with this system. I use an astrological planner for my day to day and it has been a great upgrade from the simpler datebooks I was using before just listing appointments. The layout is different but my method is very similar to yours in how I use it as a daily/weekly planner. I also use a ring notebook for all my projects and longer term tasks that aren’t confined to specific time based anything. I love putting bullet points ahead on the calendar and just forgetting about it (tasks for certain days in the future, etc). I can plan out the steps of things in advance and already this orients me to the week before I get there. In the long term notebook I keep notes on things… work projects but also home stuff… like home repairs that eventually need to get done, or budgeting, etc. It’s all there whenever I need it and I don’t have to search around. It’s been such a godsend! And I designed the whole system just from what I knew I needed and made it really straight forward. When you’re busy you can’t be fussing around with the planner all the time... Haha! But it really does bring a lot more productivity and peace of mind as a “second brain.”
