today’s video is all about my new digital planning and organization system. I quit bullet journaling about a year ago, so i’ve been trying a variety of digital tools, paper planners, and other methods. this is what i’ve found works best for me. as i give a tour of my planning methods, i’ll also be giving some tips and tricks on using notion and calendar more effectively! hopefully this is helpful to those of you looking to plan with me for 2022. happy new year and i’ll see you all next year!

Notion has definitely been a super helpful website for me! Only issue is that there’s a lot of tools to learn when you start using it. If it didn’t exist though, I’d think I wouldn’t be as organized

i do value notion alot but i think that after playing with the feature for some time you get a hang of it. it is also important to note that notion doesn't offer end to end encryption (because the search feature would be complete disabled) which allows third parties or hackers to access your data easily. I'm not hating on notion or anything (in fact I use it myself pretty much everyday) I just want to make others aware too :))

I tried so hard with digital planning systems like Notion/Google Cal but I always end up spending so much longer fiddling with the settings and setting up each event, etc. than I ever did just writing it down in my bullet journal so I think I'm going to switch back for now but stick to a more minimal system without all the trackers and doodles and stuff that I never really used to begin with

Analog planner teach us to develop our spatial intelligence. We train ourselves to become more efficient and effective using time. Write it once and we remember it unconsciously without the help of reminders. But yeah, everyone has their own limitations m. So use which system that help you the most. Anyway, Bujo is really easy to use nowadays. You need time blocking like Hobonichi? There's sticky notes that you can buy. You need digital reminder for Bujo? Ryder has it in the store for you. Bujo is fun when we stripped it down to barebones. And also in professional field of work, you can't use laptop or tablet when you're meeting with your clients. Using them will make your interactions cold, that's why a notebook and pen is irreplaceable as tools for creating warm and open interactions.

@isabellebarrett1318 2 жыл бұрын

@@arapaimagold8088 I'm not sure if you meant to put this as a reply to my comment specifically, but actually the idea that analogue systems promote spatial intelligence or memory recall compared to digital methods isn't really backed by the literature in that area. In some cases, studies have even suggested the opposite is true for people who don't have great note‐taking skills because digital systems are often more structured and have built‐in reminder systems. It's a myth perpetuated by educators and not based on the science I'm afraid. Analogue planners can be great for some people and difficult/less useful for others, the same way digital planners can. Unfortunately the same can be applied to your claim about professionalism and client relations, it's just not backed by any meaningful evidence. That said, if you personally find that using an analogue system like bujo/sticky notes/etc. works for you and creates a better dynamic with your clients that's great, and you should absolutely keep using whichever system works best for you! As someone doing a PhD in this area though I can't help but try to correct the misinformation :)

I just can't get myself to use notion, nor could I get myself to use a bullet journal or a regular planner. The only thing that may work for me is an undated planner (has the structure of a planner, design of a bullet journal and is easy to use like notion). I haven't tried using it yet but I need it to work lol. I simply tried everything else.

Hi, I relate to these same struggles. For me: I haven’t taken the time for the learning curve of notion, bujo just took too much time and I was too much of a perfectionist with it and a reg planner is just easy to ditch and wastes paper. Currently using Google Calendar, but whenever I’m online I always default to KZfaq, so also planning on getting an undated planner. If you have any suggestions, continue in this thread plz

And i dont have the artistic capabilities to keep an aesthetically pleasing bullet journal. Never kept one for more than 2 weeks. Everyone says “notion is this, notion is that..” yet i just can’t seem to understand it no matter how many times i try. i just went to writing daily to dos

@no_peace 2 жыл бұрын

I know what you mean What i did was daily bullet journal with a weekly printable and a monthly pocket calendar (and Google calendar reminders). I can't find the right undated daily planner or I'd use one. Making your own printables is awesome (you can use Google slides). You can add and subtract things from them pretty easily. There are lots of drawbacks and requirements but I literally can't find even a marginally acceptable alternative. I'm autistic and have ADHD. I need a lot of structure and a LOT of room to plan, with very little effort involved most of the time. Since i have hyperfocus i can use it to make the printables, so they're there when i don't have hyperfocus on planning, or any energy at all One of the best things I've figured out is that i can cut in half a sheet of a4 or letter dot grid (like from a Walmart spiral notebook) and use repositionable tape/glue to make it a huge post it So i could probably use a dated weekly planner with a daily dot grid on the notes side, and switch to a new dot grid post it every day I've been making post its out of everything

i think most of the pressure of bullet journaling comes from social comparison alone. making your planner look better rather than function better is an unhealthy idea.. i've always used an amalgamation of tick tick/ google calendar and my journal for years now and i love that your system is similar to that one. also i have to try notion cz i'm hearing a lot about it i just can't quite understand it lol. :p
