My Planner Setup

Planner System Update | Filofax Setup

Here's a look at the planner inserts I made for my Filofax and how I’m using them to stay organized:

Monthly Calendar:

I added an extra page to my monthly section where I write down any important dates or events that need to be added to my Google Calendar. It acts as a catch-all space before I move everything digital, and it's helped so much with keeping track of everything in one spot.

Weekly Layout:

For my weekly pages, I have the full week on one side and a notes section on the other. This is the part of my planner I use the most. It keeps me organized while giving me a flex space that I can use however I need for that week — lists, reminders, random thoughts, anything.

Daily Pages:

I don’t use my daily pages all the time, only on days when I really need more structure or have a lot going on. They give me extra room to break down my schedule or brain dump when needed.

Overall:

I kept everything super simple and useful, and for the first time, I feel like I really have a system that works for me. Plus, making my own inserts just made it feel even more personal!

What’s your must-have section in your planner? I’m always looking for new ideas!

... Read moreCreating an effective planner system is essential for staying organized. In my Filofax setup, I've included unique inserts that cater to different timeframes: monthly calendars to capture key dates, flexible weekly layouts for ongoing tasks, and daily pages for structured days. Monthly calendars help consolidate events, acting as a bridge to digital tools like Google Calendar, ensuring nothing slips through the cracks. My weekly pages are designed to provide a comprehensive view of my week, allowing for notes and reminders that can be adjusted as needed. On busier days, my daily pages serve as an expanded space to outline schedules or jot down important thoughts, further enhancing mental clarity. Furthermore, this personalized setup not only enhances functionality but also brings joy to the planning process. By making my own inserts, I am able to customize my planner to reflect my personal style, making organization an enjoyable activity. Don't hesitate to add personal touches to your planner; it truly makes a difference! What’s your must-have section in a planner? I'm always on the lookout for fresh ideas!

An iPad displays a GoodNotes weekly planner with sections for tasks, schedule, meals, and notes. A white stylus rests on the screen. The image is titled 'steal my goodnotes setup' and includes 'TECH TIPS & TRICKS'.
This image details GoodNotes settings for handwritten notes, including 'Ball Pen' options and specific pen sizes (1.3mm, 0.7mm, 0.5mm) for titles, subtitles, and body text. Highlighter sizes (6mm, 3.5mm, 1.85mm) are also shown.
The image showcases three handwriting fonts: 'Chewy', 'Reach Story', and 'Winkle', each demonstrating 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog'. It also illustrates how to enable the 'Scribble' feature in iPad settings to convert handwriting to chosen fonts.
