Scientist here - love this quiz! So accurate!! I’m realizing that the search for “planner peace” may be a ‘scientist’ thing 😂 and we’ll never find it because we keep changing the finish line as we change! 😂 But actually - for me - the peace is found in being ok with changing things and not having to have one thing that works forever. 💖
@theskyway168 Жыл бұрын
Right!! I think planner peace is a myth, at least for me, and thats why bullet journals were so great for me for so long. I can change it every week, no problem, and its ok it the system only works for a month. There are hundreds of ways to set up a planner, so I'll never be bored!

I think if there was a z axis, it’d be something along the lines of journaling/memory keeping v planning or past-facing v future-facing. I feel like some people view their books more as documents for posterity/places to reflect and others see them as a purely forward-facing tool with to-dos, goals, scheduling etc. and then I guess morning pages/stream of consciousness stuff would be right in the middle lol. You could say this is similar to the functionality axis, but I think it’s a slightly different (but important!) vector to get clear on when starting a planner or journaling system. I think there’s so much value in both approaches! Loved this video, got me thinking clearly haha

It's funny though, because I love looking at minimalist spreads and ideas because they make my eyes so happy, but in reality, I'm a chaotic, messy, receipt-collaging train wreck of a planner :p I've fully embraced the imperfection side of things with my messy-ass planners.

I'm a scientist! And I have never seen a graph illustrate my personality so well. I got 42% scientist and 42% artist- because, I am an artist. At the beginning of my planner journey I really struggled to have both functionality and pretty handmade drawings. I'm primarily a bullet journaler but a minimalist with no decorative elements and that's because I was zapping my creativity dry. All of it went to experimentation and drawings in my bullet journal. I basically had to sit down with myself and have a nice long talk about my priorities. What was more important to me? A pretty planner? Or a functional one? I had to switch up my planning style and layouts almost yearly due to various changes in my life. I had to keep detailed trackers and notes that I had to change as my life changed. That's the scientist in me. Super fun quiz! Thanks for making it!

I’m a scientist - crossed with a minimalist. I have yet to find a planner - paper or digital - that does everything I want it to. So now I make my own digital “planner” so I can add extra pages whenever and wherever I need them. Sometimes I use the same layouts for months - but more often I have some layouts that stay the same (like the month layout) and others that can change wildly from one day to the next (like the daily and weekly layouts). I also like to write - a lot - so I tend to need LOTS of space for daily pages as I typically use up several pages per day. Hence the difficulty with paper planners as they are rarely designed to accommodate that sort of thing. Have tried a paper bullet journal but didn’t necessarily love the visual chaos that ensued when I changed everything every other day. And I use basically zero art. No artistic skills whatsoever and it is not something that interests me. I do love looking at (and buying) all sorts of planners to see if I pick up anything else that might work for me.

I'm 75% Scientist, 58% Maximalist, and 42% each Artist and Minimalist. Definitely agree with this assessment. I have ADHD, so consistency is impossible for me. I have to keep experimenting to make sure my planning system stays functional, otherwise I'll eventually just stop planning altogether. The maximalist side of me LOVES having several different sets of pens, markers, highlighters, washi tapes, stickers, etc. However, I have whittled down my collection somewhat, and now I'm currently keeping most of my decorative stuff and pen sets at home to avoid lugging so much around (I used to try to carry as much with me as possible!). I consistently gravitate toward systems that are flexible lol. I almost always have a traveler's notebook in my lineup, as well as a simple spiral notebook or journal. I hop in and out of disc-bound and ring-bound planners quite a lot, and without Google Calendar and other apps, my appointments and reminders would get lost in the shuffle. Finally, Frixion pens, markers, and highlighters are a must-have in this household. I don't know how I ever lived without them! The newest addition to my lineup is the Rocketbook Panda Planner. I love the ability to erase and reuse the pages. However, it doesn't work well for on-the-go planning because you have to use water to erase the Frixion ink, and I'm so used to using the erasers with Frixion on regular paper that I'm afraid I might forget and damage the Rocketbook paper! So, I've decided to use it for goal planning, since many of the pages are designed for that specifically. Right now, I have my lineup set for 2023, but I don't expect it to stay the same throughout the year. The only thing that will probably stay the same will be my color code, which I've managed to keep mostly the same for several years. And even that could change at some point! lol Happy holidays, everyone! 🎄✨🎊

I got the scientist and I would say that's correct. I'm huge on tweaking small things until I've made something super functional, and then making more small changes as the need arises in my life. I'm overly detail-oriented to the fault. I really like that you had sliders and such, and the percentages of the types. The only question I didn't care for was "It’s important to me that my spreads are easy to replicate week to week and month to month, because my decoration style changes so much." because it felt unclear. For example, it's important to me that my spreads are relatively easy to replicate because I have very severe ADHD, but I don't base my layouts on potential decor at all. I selected the spot around 25% but felt unsure at which half of the question was more important.

75% scientist, 42% minimalist, 17% artist and maximalist. This is very accurate and it's one that often surprises people because I am art director/design. I make my living as a creative. It perplexed more than a few to know I keep a simple system. I've learned too much decor hurts my creative processes and since every project is different, my way of keeping track often needs to flex to accommodate the projects at hand. That approach also served me well parenting a neurodivergent child because it the need always changed. I do enjoy pretty planning accounts, and I do have a little pretty in mine, but an embellished planner takes away from other areas of my life and I need that energy used in places other than my planner.

I take copious note on everything and my planners always chunk up, and carrying them, putting them in and taking them out of my bag becomes a feat.

I like to see how my time is spread out between work, school, family, finance, and personal-related items. I've spent a lot of time trying different styles and sizes, but my setup has to be plain if I'm going to use it.

Scientist. Honestly, the strugle to find what works is never ending. Sometimes it feels like I don't actually understand planning at all. My favorite thing about the hobonichi community, especially the weeks, is I've seen a lot of examples of how people Actually plan, and have gotten a lot of fresh inspiration. I like elelments of the happy planner, but its so hard to find actual planning inspiration. Its seems like a lot blank pages that happen to be decorated get the most traction online. I do like decorating, but I've learned that it has to be the last thing I do. Decorating before planning, before I know what goes in the boxes or how much space I'll want to use is just 🤯. I decorate as I go and towards the end of the week. Maybe I'll add some washi and small stickers out of the way in the beginning of the week, but nothing big until I know what I have to work with and what I want to highlight/commemorate. Also, I actually am a scientist, though I think my planner experimentation has a lot more to do with adhd and not having consistently structued days from flexible work hours.

I got minimalist and I wasn't surprised! It fits me perfectly, although I suspect if people knew that I bullet journal and *don't* do gorgeous, highly decorated spreads, many would be surprised because of how often I draw. The whole purpose of my bullet journal is to help me keep me on track with my tasks and I can't think of anything more distracting than highly, intricate layouts...not to mention, annoying! I just bring around a small pack of Mildliners, 2 of the same pen (just in case one runs out of ink), and my bullet journal. Although, I am experimenting with other supplies (like mini post-it notes) and things to help me achieve whatever I'm looking to do. I don't really do too many layouts at the moment because I haven't had a use for them until recently. The most artsy I get with my bullet journal is that I hand-make them. 🤣 Because I found that's the only way I'd actually use it. (And no, decorating the covers of a store bought one is *not* the same thing to me lol I will say, making them is fun.)

I prefer to build my planner from the ground up in a stalogy (because thin paper!). I explore all the things i think ill need. They ill play and play and play and play and play until i find a system of layouts that gives me enough room to do what i want in the order i want while reducing the risk of wasting pages. Because i function best in one planner, designed exactly to my specifications that ive drawn out myself. After its drawn up and ready to go, i decorate the whole thing. With water colours and one pen... And then, i dont decorate for the rest of the year. Then im a one pen, one book, minimalist type of planner. When the year is underway im too stressed to actually play in it too much. I save that for the next year!

I mainly use a black pen and highlighter for planning with minimal decorative supplies. Washi tape is one of my most favorite supplies because of its simplicity and versatility. This was such a fun quiz. Thank you for creating it!

WOW I think 92% has to be the highest score in one category I’ve seen 🤩

Same here - 92% 😁. I don't use stickers at all, will only occasionally use very thin washi to mark off 'structural' things like holidays, and although I avoid colour-coding because it just confuses me, I change things up a little just by swapping my covers around and using a different pen with matching tombo highlighter once in a while. Useful quiz - thank you!

Also a minimalist. Sometimes I will try new planners but they usually fall short of my go-to/fav - the Hobonichi Weeks ( or A6 Original). This year I got a couple of others too but I’ve already relegated to my “unused” pile - and it’s not even Jan 1 yet! Thanks for your great content and fresh look at planning.

I got minimalist as the top but with maximalist as a close second! Interesting. I use more than one book but each book is used for a particular purpose. I choose a set of five mildliners that I use throughout the year although I use lots of different coloured pens (not usually black or blue). My work planner is very simple with just the day/date and bullet lists of tasks. I use a printed planner for personal tasks and appointments/events and I use a few very small stickers in here. Then I also have a happy planner (vertical) which I use for memory keeping and so this has a lot more decoration in it. I doodle and use lots more stickers.

I got the Artist! It's true i was in a happy planner vertical for years and then they started getting all these different layouts and i had a hard time finding what i liked. So i switched to a hobonichi A6 weekly supplement and a6 day free for work. the weekly supplement works super great to map out my work projects and i love decorating it. The a6dayfree is plain and i just use it to write down meeting notes, random to do stuff and its my ugly planner lolol. I also got a hobo weeks mega this year to use as a personal planner for home life and grad school. I'm still getting the hang of it but i'm loving the duo.

I'm a minimalist. I tried paper planners again and again. Finally moved to a digital planner in an app. And I'm so happy. I use the same spreads over and over and I used to find decoration tiring. I have a serious health condition that affects my energy levels. Lately in my journal I have included a bit more decoration in the form of stickers and washi tape but it is still very consistent and minimal in style. I like to watch other people make pretty spreads. But I cannot do it myself lol

Was not able to take the quiz unfortunately, however I am a Chemist by trade . . . . and by your descriptions of planner styles - I am a scientist. I change the layout based on how my life is going at the time. Different layouts work for different time periods of my life. Vacation, summer, tax season, etc.

Happy holidays. Took the quiz 2x. The first time it stated I was a maximalist which was incorrect because my planner is far from covered in stickers. The second time was more accurate as a Scientist. This describes me to the T. I enjoyed taking this quiz. Thank you for offering it.

Thanks a lot for making this quiz; it was really fun to take! I scored 67% Minimalist and 58% Maximalist. Assuming that‘s because while I‘m fairly minimalist and very consistent in my actual planning, I love using different pens and inks and stickers and washi and ephemera - you name it - in my creative journal … which I also use very consistently. I do have a journal/diary in which I use only pen and paper to record my day, but for my creative journal, I love using ALL. THE. THINGS. 💙

I am scientist, but for a bit of a different reason! I've accepted that I HAVE to switch up my planning style week to week, otherwise my brain gets bored and I stop being organized. I'm not searching for the perfect system, because I know I will never get one 😄 I'm just changing it up often to stay interested
