Amanda, your "here are some other ways to use this planner" has really helped me. I've been struggling to figure out whether to get the planner or just the notebooks because I use my household planner as a look ahead, more than a working document (like referenced every day). The idea that I could use it as a daily "how did I do on my goals" journal is an excellent one. I think I might actually use it that way! Oooh! Or because an A5 would sit on my bedside table, maybe pair the notebooks with a dot-grid notebook that I can use to do a quick daily journal. Decisions, decisions... (If I keep with it, maybe I'll reward myself with the folio. It is gorgeous.) Thanks for all that you do. Your thoroughness and lack of sales-iness really make your videos perfect for helping make decisions. THANK YOU!

Hey Anne;) First of all thanks for taking time to leave all your thoughts, and for your kind compliments. I love both your ideas...lots of options. I think it just comes down to which one you would enjoy using more since both of your ideas would work well:)

Thank you for all of the time you spent on this video! I am really excited about all of the new products. I love the bookmark and the folio with the intentions and refections, and plan on picking those up. And for my planner I'll be getting the Vertical Flagship with the Blackberry Fields cover.

@AmandasFavorites Жыл бұрын
Hey Cassie:) Thanks for watching and for using my links:) That is a good point about the corners not matching you planner corners. I think they offer unpunched in the a5- but printable would be a nice option too for your needs. I know they have it in digital, but I don't think it is offered in a printable PDF. I would go on their site when launch day goes up...or email them just to check.

thank you for showing all of this. I like the companion notebooks but they should offer that as inserts as well (nice touch that the pages are perforated though). They are very expensive but would fit in nicely with my a5 ring system. I will use your link if I decide to get them :)

I think they might be offering them as inserts this year...not sure. Did you check the website?

@@AmandasFavorites I did. They actually have a very slim insert selection. All they have as inserts is a daily layout for 1 quarter. The weekly layout is 7x9. They should really beef up the insert selection but I do think I will be using the system some way in 2023

Out of curiosity, do people actually find the goal planner part of planners useful?
@AmandasFavorites Жыл бұрын
I hear from a lot of people that really love the Makselife goal system...they have a lot of support in their FB group. And when staying accountable to it have a made progress on their goals/habits. But I understand a goal planner is not for everyone...or maybe not every season of your life. I have for the most part just done my own method of mapping out what I want to work on in a years time and been successful too:) I have talked about that in my Personal Planning update videos here (they have their own playlist). I also made a 2022 Goal Planning video here in which I show my system. I have used Makselife and Powersheets myself in the past too. I think different seasons and different personalities all have their own needs. It's really what serves you best, and what you enjoy in the season you are in. I do love the reflection part of this planner...it's something I definitely don't do weekly on my own- but I could in my journal. Just the prompts make me do it in a system.
