journaling is done with my twisbi diamond 580 in extra fine inked with kobe 52 vintage sepia

Never ever apologize or hesitate to post a long video. You’re basically the friend I plan with so stay chatty and keep me company 😊

Same! Feels like planning with a friend 😊
i caved and got a filofax after seeing megan rhiannon's common placing in it. i thought i'd give it a crack and realised i want to move in here out of my bullet journal. i've never had a ring planner so your videos have been so helpful for me to see how my dream system is actually possible
A ring planner is always the best organizer and screams productivity 😅

Does anyone ever have problems with weight? I have a ton of ring personal size I've collected in the last 20 yrs. I've been using filofax, day timer, dayrunner, kikki k. I have to be highly functional, I hate happy planner, I thought strings were messy so I keep going back to ring. But in my purse with phone, 2 pair of glasses (sun and reading) my purse gets so heavy my back hurts. I was thinking maybe a soft cover. I've even tried canvas covers. Too heavy. Please suggest something. I don't even carry a whole year of weekly. I carry a year of months and several tabs. Thanks 👍

@@loisbeyer5336 filofax clipbook is the last heavy because it's not leather. You could also buy plastic rings instead of the metal and instead of the any covers use just plastic flyleaves on rings.
As someone who mostly uses A5 books I feel about personal the same way you feel about pocket size, I find it so cute✨

aww, that's fun to think of it that way. I just love tiny planner so much, but personal has been great to have a bit more room than I'm used to!
I'm in some bound notebooks but I love watching the ring planner content. honestly has me thinking about rings for 2025
I’m a ring planner user. I was introduced to your channel from Stationery Cafe. I love how clean and practical your systems are and that you go back and revisit things to assess their effectiveness.
I am in rings as well, and I am kind of kicking myself for not doing this years ago. Having 3 to 4 journals in ONE system is such a game changer! Love your flips, I'm in A6 but am so tempted to try personal!
I always love seeing how other people plan their days 🥰

So first off, I am absolutely changing my nail polish to a green now! 😊 I bought a rings binder in 2021 and abandoned it in March when I discovered Hobonichi Weeks Spring Start. Seeing how you are staying organized in the rings is so inspiring and as my life starts going off the rails (some good things and some not so pleasant things) managing multiple books is just not in the cards for me. I love being on this journey with you! Congratulations on 90 days!
I love watching you talk about your planners, even though it wouldn't work for me. And I just wanted to let you know that there was something really inspiring and motivating about this video, that got me to sit down, write some stuff down that I needed to figure out - so you have really helped me, thanks for that! 😊
Even if your actually planning style doesn 't change, hearing about the little nuances in a new format is always interesting to hear. Mostly, I just like to hear you talk lol

filofax was my first point of contact with the planner community. Then everybody started using hobonichis and other non-ring planners!
i love how fluid your thoughts are and how concise your explanations are as well!!! loved this.

i was resisting moving to a ring planner because i don't like the rings being in the way. I bit the bullet and now I get why you feel so at peace with having everything all in one place!
I would be interested in seeing how your archive or plan to archive your personal rings planner pages...
Ahh this was a joy to watch, I was inspired but I hardly could pull this out in this stage of life I am in, but it was so much fun to watch! Thank you
Looove long videos! Seeing you have so much fun in rings is really inspiring, and I love how you're able to keep everything in one book ✨
Yaaasss! I've been waiting for this! Yay for 90 days! I love that you're also journaling in your personal rings.😍

I was wondering if you would stay in passport. Lol I have moments where I think about using something else but it never lasts long lol I have also been using an all in one system and I lovvveee it. It is so freeing to have everything in one and not have to worry about what information is in what book. I love having everything at my fingertips. I downsized from using an a5 to an a6. And I bought the sterling ink commonplanner and notebook, cut it up and punched it to put in my planner and it’s planner peace. I’m also a lover of grid lol

Wow you jumped from A5 to A6!! I keep going back and forth about halfletter to mini. I too love grid though. I would have loved to watch your journey and planner switch up. Happy planning!!
I’m obsessed with your rings setup lol everything in it looks so good
Love this video!!! It was the perfect thing to watch on a cozy, rainy Saturday. Your ring system looks amazing, and I really enjoyed hearing your thought process and intention behind it. I've been memory keeping on my daily pages for years now and it really is a winning combo. Happy to hear it's working for you! P.S. I'm 100% with you on the cream paper love!
I love this video I found it while looking for Filofax videos. I recently found a Filofax at the thrift store and taken back to the 90s when I’d see my grandma use hers. I vividly remember she couldn’t remember anything unless it was written down in her Filofax! I use a passport TN and after seeing this video I definitely am going to test out the personal filofax! ❤
Love the long videos and flip thru explanations ❤ I’m all for the content!
Thanks so much Lindsey for your video post here. I just found you on Sunday and I’m not quite done with your video but you inspire me girl! anna
This video gave me so much inspiration to consolidate some of the individual planners I bounce around. I have planner peace with a personal ring for my work and would love to have a special personal ring for everything else. Thanks for sharing!
I just enjoy seeing any content from you! :).
Love the process throughout the year.
Thank you for this video. I was considering personal size planning(I’m a planner hopper), this video has inspired me to take the plunge. Finding inserts that work for me has been the hardest part, but I LOVE❤️the inserts you have designed. Your layout appeals to me and makes total sense. It’s your own inserts for me! Thanks again! 💐
I just ordered my first ever rings and supplies - can’t wait :)
Love your green nails!

All of the above.. I love ring planners and watching how others are using their systems. Fabulous video and information.
I'm in Hobonichi HON A5 for this year as a all-in-one-book (except for my work planner which lives on my desk at work), but it's still so lovely and so inspiring to hear you talk so passionate about the Rings and your current system. I'm so glad that it is working so well for you! Looking forward to next weeks video as I'm also thinking about doing a No buy/Low buy (at least for February 😅).

oh, there's something about an all in one hobonichi cousin setup that just feels right in my brain
I’ve moved a work section in to my standard tn setup after using a separate work planner for the past 18 years. It. Is. Amazing. (And thanks to your video!!)
I cannot convey how much i love your planner!! So functional, yet beautiful and not over the top with decor. And the horizontal weeklies, do you offer those in your shope!! Would love to get some!! What a fantastic and informative video! Thank you for sharing!! ❤
Loved hearing this update! I am jumping into rings soon,I’m excited and hope I feel the same way as you do. I adore the idea of having ONE planner for all, I think I would be much more consistent with journaling if I did that. Please record a video for how to index in rings that has been my biggest struggle with the move out of bound books. I’m moving into A5 but your personal looks so great!
My goodness, you speak so well. I love your planner. Now I may have to go back to rings lol.
I love this video. Thank you! I have recently begun to plan in a rings, but I plan on cards in the size of business cards. I’m not sure there are others using this system but I have to check hundreds of rings planner videos first. Have a great day 🌷
I loved seeing this! ☺️ It’s so fun to see how you’re organising stuff & also hear your thoughts about it & your pros & cons. I’m still fairly new to ring planners (started in sep/oct last year) & still figuring it out, but that’s a part of it, right? ☺️ I have the insert you talked about (can’t remember which one just now) & would love to be able to get the “on the line” version as well 😊 Lastly, I’ve been using your inserts for the last two weeks & I’m really enjoying them, so thank you! ✨
"she's so pretty" i cry as i see the filofax ranger.. "she's so pretty!" i scream as i look at all the inserts and spreads you keep inside 😅🤣 thanks for sharing, lindsey! i am going to be setting up my personal rings in the upcoming days. going to be soft-launching as a commonplace system instead of my planner cause it will be my first time in rings and im so excited! keep going back to your vids for inspiration and really enjoyed this one since it was a longer length
If I wasn't so attached to my Hobo Cousin, I could see myself in a system like this. I love all of the sections you have. And love the longer videos, too!
I love Atomic habits! Love habit stacking! I run a psy ward at a VA and teach this… soooooo brilliant!
I am definitely most productive in rings. I can do my devotional daily in a bound book, but they don’t work for my planning. TN’s are second for me, a little more similar to rings for customization. ❤. Thanks for sharing!
Great flip-through :)
You inspired me to move into a pocket rings from my passport and 'm so happy!
I started with the hobonichi weeks last year and fell in love with smaller planners! I haven’t tried rings yet, mostly because the price of the covers is intimidating, but part of me really thinks I’d enjoy using rings
Love it ❤
Very inspiring. Thanks for sharing
I prefer long videos ❤ and rings for the win yay !!!
Where did you get the monthly inserts? So cute! Thanks for sharing Lindsey, I've officially moved into personal rings!
Absolutely loved this video! I’m switching from passport TN to pocket rings, this weekend in fact. I really love how functional your setups are with just a touch of deco pieces. I’m now researching archival systems for pocket inserts so if you have any recommendations, please share. 😊

it's my guilty pleasure activity for sure
i would so be in rings if it wasn't uncomfortable to write in. i may have to try it more but ughhh. also the paper is something i'm a little worried about since i use larger nib sizes and wet ink.
That's what gets me. I have a great planner system in a7 rings yet what do I do with my sketchbook? Travelers don't work for me lol
Thank you for sharing! I’m really intrigued by rings, but I just don’t see them being comfortable to write in. Do you take your pages out to write on them and then put them back?
Be interested to know if you get a pocket system and, if so, how you get on with it. Like you, I struggle with the portability/handbag issue so my Personal Filofax stays at home. I carry an A6 lined notebook but I've had to put in a list of all future appointments so I know if I'm available to book anything plus I have this week plus the next 3 weeks plans (appts & tasks). It is mostly working but wonder if it could be cleaner/better. Toying with getting a pocket Filo but worried about double updating, what to keep once and what to duplicate.
such a nice and clean-looking planner. where did you purchase your paper?
Hey Lindsey, I'd love to print my own inserts as well. Do you trim and hole punch all of them yourself as well as printing them on a normal printer?
What insert are you using for your daily?
Hah u sound like me…I was 20, in nursing school, working full time, I had my two babies, time with friends….burning the candle at both ends. lol I’m in my 40s now… so tiring. I’m so much more organized I didn’t care then it was all about survival.
Isn’t there a super small rings that you can use for just monthlies, I know you said you don’t want to buy anything new but in case keeping the same size of paper is important.
Love seeing your system. But I'm left-handed so I don't see rings as an option for me.
Am I overlooking the information for the printable acetate?
