Soo glad your video was on my for you page. I have been devouring your videos & I’m feeling more confident on how to proceed with my planner. Thank you for sharing! I just ordered my common planner in mist B6, so I am a little late into the year but better a little late than never😊

You are so welcome! I love to hear my my videos have a positive impact 🤗 And you are very right, better late than never! I hope you find a system that works for you!

Love!

The quarterly on the left is great for: book reading log, a sleep tracker bar chart (or other bar chart tracker) or quarterly goals at the top broken down by month in the monthly sections. For the right page trackers is common or indexing but it’s got so many uses. Gratitude and weather are two great options.

14:50 I found for running that listening to an audiobook helped keep my tempo and not go too fast. When listening to music I had issues with going to fast and not keeping a good pace. When I switched to audio books it helped so much 🏃‍♀️

Yes! I do that sometimes, but lately I have been running on a treadmill, so that helps 😆

TFS Dia. Sounds like your life has been eventful. Curious how often you clean your fountain pens since you're using archival/document ink & what your experience has been w/them as a whole? Also, a video on how you make your stickers would be awesome. I've printed mine but

With the Sketch Ink or you should clean your pen every month or month and a half. With the de atramentis archive and document inks (document just can’t be removed with bleach or solvents so it’s got fraud protection basically) don’t have that short window suggestion for cleaning. But I still go with around every 2 months or so if you don’t use it up faster than that. If you are using it up faster and changing your ink it’s less of an issue since you should flush your pen when you refill it just to get any impurities out. 💗

I will usually clean out my pen every other month, but mainly because I have been trying different inks. My husband is very patient and does an excellent job keeping our pens clean. Me on the other hand, will replace a pen if it starts to get backed up or dried out. But then again, the pens I usually use are under $15 😆 And I wish I could make a sticker video, but I am horrible at it 😂 TFW!

@@DiaMeraz Ah I see. Nice of your husband to keep them clean. Was wondering your experience see if I'm cleaning too frequently. OIS, no worries. Love stickers but prefer washi or transparent so they don't expand pages so much. Often use stamps too.

Do you explain in a video how you use (what you include in) your weekly as opposed to monthly and daily?

Any of my past flip throughs will show you how I use the weekly spread. But basically, I track what I do with my time throughout the day. I always have this open on my desk, and I am writing in it just about every hour to update it. Hope that helps!

I love having a separate journal but I find that I want to write everything in one book or I duplicate and that seems weird. Do you write the same things in the daily 5 year journal that you do in your sterling ink planner?

Because my 5 year is only an A6 size, I can't fit much. I will just write the highlight or main points of the day, and then I go into more detail in my Common Planner. This makes it easy to reference my past entries too!

15:59 what fountain pen did you use here? ❤❤❤

It's a Pilot Kakuno! amzn.to/3SaMHhm They come on other cute colors too. But I like the demonstrator best.

Is there a special program you used to create that beautiful vision board?
