Love this 👍🤩

[@squairdplans]

Thanks girl! Trying to set myself up for a successful year in 2020! Hoping that others will benefit from these ideas, too!

[@Thepaperandpengirl]

@@squairdplans I am sure they will and you will rock 2020 👍😀

[@cristydillard5854]

First of all.....I LOVE your channel. You are a channel that actually uses their planner for things other than decoration! Can you make a video showing how you would utilize a calorie tracker without the use of a phone app? I am struggling with my healthy hero set up. I have watched your other videos, but I would like to see more of your food tracker videos.

[@squairdplans]

Thanks for the idea! So you basically want to see how I would set up a weekly spread or insert sheet to track calories by each food, yes? Almost like a spreadsheet or chart with the ability to total at day’s end?

[@cristydillard5854]

@@squairdplans YES!!!! That would be amazing! Can you also track your exercise on the same sheet?

[@squairdplans]

I’ll add it to the idea list! 👍🏼

[@kissesincharleston]

Out-Squaird-Tacular!! Well done!

[@squairdplans]

Thank you kindly!

[@terribeaverson2997]

You are quite the goal getter! 🤗 Looks great 😊

[@squairdplans]

Thanks! I’m trying...😁👍🏼

[@d.m.campano5672]

Great ideas! Your previous video got me thinking about life beyond the empty nest, and post family business phase of life. Yikes! I've had life well planned out, detailed goals up to, and including the kiddos leaving the nest, and life beyond the business we built. Time to do serious thinking about living a purposeful, and fun life, now that much of life's heavy lifting is over. You've given me several good ideas about how to go about orchestrating those goals!

[@squairdplans]

Glad to hear it! Happy Goal Making!

[@reneebarrette4514]

I'M PROUD OF YOU AND I KNOW YOU CAN DO IT!!!

[@squairdplans]

Aww, thanks girl! The struggle is real so I appreciate the encouragement! ☺️💜

[@wendyhoward2699]

This is so impressive. I’ve always had trouble making goals.

[@squairdplans]

Thanks! I’m trying to get things together.

[@TangieHenry]

I really like the idea of creating a separate sheet for each of your goals. 👍🏽

[@squairdplans]

Thanks! 😁👍🏼

[@WithlovedanelizBlogspotxo]

I am so glad to have found your channel. I find all of your series to be well thought out, explained and executed. You always present a wealth of information and explain everything very well. Thank you for taking pride in your content.

[@squairdplans]

Thank you so much for watching and for the helpful feedback! I really appreciate it! ☺️💕

[@rmortiz66]

I’m loving this series! I need to go back to setting up goals regularly and having a framework like this helps. My goals are more personal than professional, but certainly deserve this kind of attention.

[@squairdplans]

Thanks! So glad you are getting some useful info from this series! ☺️👍🏼

[@katrinacole6741]

Great job explaining the SMART system. And I really like the project sheet. I will definitely coming back to this video.

[@squairdplans]

Thanks! 😁 Happy planning! 👍🏼

[@lindaepstein7736]

Wow. I'm really impressed with how you're working out your goals in your HP. I don't think I've ever seen anything quite this detailed for setting up goals, i.e. Smart goals and Project Time Math. I definitely need to look into this more, and I'm looking forward to seeing more of your videos. I am subscribing today. Thank you for what you're sharing here.

[@squairdplans]

Glad you are enjoying this series! Thanks for the feedback and for subbing! ☺️💕

[@ShelleensCreativityRoom]

I'm using so many ideas in unused, expired planners and this is another great way. Thank you.

[@squairdplans]

Nice! Happy planning! 😁👍🏼

[@yolandamitchellwilliams9025]

I am a productivity coach and I love how you listing your goals in your HP. You gave really great information about goals and the time breakdown was excellent. I enjoy your channel and I can't wait for the rest of the series!

[@squairdplans]

Thanks so much! 😁💜

[@tammysegarra2379]

Fantastic idea. Thank you for sharing. I was looking for productive ways to use the happy planner in order to achieve my goals.

[@squairdplans]

Glad you found the info useful! Happy planning! 😁👍🏼

[@katiebosio3439]

Thanks for the example!

[@squairdplans]

Happy to share! 😁👍🏼

[@lildea06]

Can I just say that I love you so much! Next week, I will be teaching my college students about goal setting, setting smart goals, and things like that. It's so amazing how you're talking about this this week. I may have to give them a link to this plan with me, so they can see a different way of planning and setting goals.

[@squairdplans]

Right on time! 😉 Glad you found the info helpful! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@micheleb6933]

Thank you! Another really helpful video.

[@squairdplans]

Happy to hear it! 😁👍🏼

[@sheilahhawk1343]

I just really like how you broke things down. I will definitely be using your method this week! Sometimes our goals can feel so daunting and watching you break it all down to attainable steps makes me feel less overwhelmed with mine now. THANK YOU!

[@squairdplans]

My thoughts exactly! My goals feel overwhelming so trying to break them down it doable tasks will hopefully help me tackle them with more ease. 😁👍🏼

[@jenniferrichard9644]

I really like how you explained the “math” . I have always struggled to figure out how long my goal/ project should or could take. Thank you!

[@squairdplans]

Happy to share! 😁👍🏼

[@rowinginfaith]

I love how you added realistic times for completing each step. Great idea!

[@squairdplans]

Trying to keep it realistic and attainable!

[@sonagray3176]

Great video

Thank you! 😁💜

[@dorotheawright2205]

Awesome video 🥰😇🙏thank you

[@squairdplans]

Glad to hear it! 😁

[@gardencoopgal1534]

Thank you- this is awesome. I am loving this series / concept.

[@squairdplans]

Thanks so much! Let’s go get those goals! 😁👍🏼

[@NdiNaija]

Love this! How did you estimate the amount of time each item would take?

[@squairdplans]

I really just estimated based on past experience. I could be off a bit but it is just a jumping off point. You can make adjustments later down the line once you see how your scheduling coincides with reality.

[@shellibass6599]

Can you show us how you place stickers from the books to the sheets you use to organize the stickers you have chosen to use?

[@squairdplans]

I did a video a while back showing my preplanning process. Here’s the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/f5C0iYWGidxnq8U

[@Candace.W]

Hi there! Any tutorials on how to resize pics for the Happy Planner Sheet Protector pages?

[@squairdplans]

I don’t have any on my channel but look for videos titled resizing images with (insert software you have). That should help you out. Good luck! ☺️👍🏼

[@beccaplans]

Love this page! What is an online portfolio? Like a website/blog? I was hoping you would explain that... 😀

[@squairdplans]

Sorry, I forget that not everyone knows about that designer life. 😜 I am a graphic designer so I have to showcase my past work to potential clients and employers to help secure new opportunities, know as a portfolio. However, I am my own worst client so it is taking me forever to get it together and set up my portfolio website. Really hoping that 2020 is my year to getter’ dun! 🤞#goals

[@beccaplans]

Squaird Plans I know you’ll get it done!! You got this girl! 💛

[@beccaplans]

Squaird Plans try a notebook for goal journaling and keep track of notes and plans/steps to get your portfolio set up. And everyday, write down at least 3 steps you’ve taken to reach that goal. I’ve been doing this and it really helps me stay focused on my short and long-term goals. Also I’ve learned that I needed to # the pages in my notebook and I also made a table of contents/index of what I focused on for each page or pages and just added that in to the front after the cover. But I would’ve just made a bujo style index in the beginning pages of the notebook instead of having to go back and add a few pages in the front.

[@deborahmurphey3829]

Hi, My goals are more of reading/studying, learning new projects are they considered something I want to develop in? Or giving myself time for cleaning? thanks.

[@squairdplans]

I would classify those goals as more of habits than projects. Check out these two videos in the goals series to help you formulate your action plan 👍🏼 kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5jVinaJrtiWh6c kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3mceY1rq6aJj7M

[@beccaplans]

Hey Steph, do you have some advice or tips for how I could specifically make this project sheet for a weight loss goal? Would that make sense to do in this format? “What would that look like?” is what I’m struggling with at the moment...

[@squairdplans]

So you can use this layout but you would need to figure out if you can create a “project” from your goal. For example, instead of lose weight maybe the goal is to become 100% vegetarian or run a half marathon...something with a concrete project end or finish line. If you can’t think of anything like this that will get you to your weight loss goal in the process, I would suggest trying the habit tracker goals sheets instead with maybe a body tracking sheet on the back? You could set your goal of losing XX lbs by (insert date) as your main goal, then define 3 habits you can do to get you there below, like exercise 5 days a week for 30 mins, meal plan/prep each week, no sugar, etc. and set up your habit trackers to support that. Make sense?

[@beccaplans]

Squaird Plans Yes! Thanks Steph!!

[@squairdplans]

Happy to help! 😁👍🏼
