    Bonne et Heureuse Année! As a teacher, I've always known about the power of writing things down, using our hand, fingers and a pen to understand better, learn faster and remember longer what is important to us. Thank you so much for mentioning this and the article. It is a fact, taking notes on a tablet or any kind of screen can be helpful but will never have the same results as handwriting, at least for a vast number of people. It was so devastating to see many schools banning books and notebooks at some point, to replace them with screens - and fortunately this trend had a short life :)

  • @happycommuter3523
    @happycommuter3523 Před 2 lety +31

    Never share a positive goal, something you’re doing to enrich your life, with a chronic Debbie Downer. I find the first thing they say is, “You’re making me feel so guilty.” You might need to quietly pursue your goal and only share the great results with people you know will be encouraging, positive, and affirming-even if those people are part of an online community. Don’t allow negative people’s brain weasels to derail your dreams!

    • @racheldossantos6148
      @racheldossantos6148 Před 2 lety +1

      Yes! Even when my husband and I are doing something like exercising in our front yard, I can think of a couple people who if they walk past and see us (we live on a property with 20 other families) they'll comment something like, "stop showing off..." or "trying to show up the rest of us?!" or "you guys are so good, it makes me feel guilty." I don't like getting those responses! We started inviting them to join us in exercise and they always refuse!

    • @happycommuter3523
      @happycommuter3523 Před 2 lety +3

      My experience is people react this way mostly when I talk about weight loss/ fitness, decluttering, and paying off debt/ saving money. I guess those are areas where people feel the most insecure.

    Thanks, Jennifer! I’m looking forward to my new planner arriving in the mail any day now. I’m trying a new planner this year from Glory Days, which is designed specifically for moms of special needs children. Our best laid plans can take sharp turns, unexpected detours, and even come to screeching halts; however having a written down plan in place has been so helpful for me in getting back on course time and again. 💕
    May your new year be blessed of the Lord. 🙏🏻 ~ Cara

    I bought a planner 10 months ago and it's really changed how I live everyday.
    1. I set realistic weekly goals
    2. I work on business, personal and relationship goals.
    3. I just try to tick off 1 thing a day. That's it.
    4. When I'm working on a goal I put a timer on for 30 mins with 5 mins breaks.
    Somehow I always achieve more 🥰☺️💞

    Hi Jennifer, great reminders in your video. I am in my fifties but still love learning. I am currently working on language acquisition. I am an intermediate /advanced in French and my goal is to pass the DELF B2 or C1 test. I went 13 years to a German School. I love German and so regret that in the years I was taking care of my children (I am almost an empty nester now) I let go of it. Now I am also trying to recover it. I am a Spanish native speaker and when I first came to the US, I focused on improving my English and neglected my other languages. Now I have the time to study again. I love reading and another of my goals is to read books in their original languages. Other goals are to find a book club, exercise to gain strength, eat more fruit and veggies, limit shopping to eliminate waste, live a more frugal life. Thank you for your lovely video.

That’s how I paid off my car early by putting it on paper and budgeting in advance to see how much money I could apply to the car payment from each paycheck to get to my goal date. Once I put my goal in writing with an action plan that was doable for me, it motivated me even more to reach my goal sooner (which I did)!

This video of yours is the technique and know-how that I needed, the mentor-ship that I desired before putting pen to page. Thank you for your guidance and wisdom! I feel much more confident in using my planner now. I’ve begun the habit of reading before bed and I want to utilize that time to read some classics, so it was cool that you mentioned that as an example:)

    So, my word this year is Perseverance. This year I am getting a new planner so I can do this as well as use a bullet journal. I am using a planner to map out the goals and the bullet journal to gauge how far I have come with the goals. My goals this year are running a half marathon and reading 75 books for the year. I have not run in two years due to a hip injury and I am just now feeling good about putting my body through the training for it. I know that it will be a challenge hence the word of the year. Just thought I would share the goals for the year with this community. I know that you all are encouraging and motivating. By the way the marathon will be done doing intervals of 1 minute run 1 minute walk the first half and 2 minute run 1 minute walk the second half.

    Happy New Year Jennifer, and everyone else.
    I’ve been doing this for about five years using the bullet journal method, sort of anyway… While I find writing things down helpful there is something else… I realised that it doesn’t necessarily follow that I will do what I intended to do. It’s been easy to write down detailed plans but not so easy to get on with the doing. I have either ignored them or been distracted by little things or major things that shook my confidence and belief or caused a real problem that stopped things from happening. I could say, come on, do it anyway! I don’t have that kind of personality though. Because of that I carry over goals from one year to the next and it all gets very tiring.
    I can definitely see the downside of looking at what I haven’t achieved but I don’t know if it would be even worse if I couldn’t see it. Journaling, as in off-loading thoughts onto paper, in my case writing not typing, is a very useful tool even so.

      You are not alone. I literally got nothing done this week except buy a new planner -- I was aiming to have my whole year organized on paper by now, ha ha. But it will happen. Self-recrimination is useless. "Believe it can happen and take the next step."

      I have a similar challenge, although I’m also very successful with some goals. I have to wonder if this means we’re trying to do too much or things that don’t necessarily align with our current stages in life. To solve for this, I’m trying to focus on managing my energy levels and finding ways to automate my goals and routines. Also, I took a course on mini habits several years ago (on Udemy or one of those similar platforms), and I’m trying to incorporate more of that approach. Best of luck!

    Excellent tips Jennifer! I found that once I started actually scheduling my action steps in my planner it made a huge difference. The combination of setting goals, writing out action steps and then scheduling those action steps in my planner improves productivity tenfold. I am much more productive than when just writing out a to-do list.

    I like it that you put psychology behind these steps presented. It helped me understand more about why we do what we do. In the past I thought it wasn’t useful to set a deadline because it was going to stress me out if I didn’t hit it but I found out if I put a range of pounds to lose of what I could actually do and what would be challenging this month then it would be more appealing to me. I enjoyed this video very much.

The holidays we wonderful but, in full disclosure, I have been eagerly anticipating their ending and the return of the Daily Connoisseur. 😃 I have missed your smiling face, wise counsel, and today's video is absolutely PERFECT! I was already planning on setting up my calendars and planners today (a relatively new concept for me to enjoy, being the spontaneous, creative type 😊), so your timely video was, truly, a God send for me. Thank you again, ever so much! I pray for you and your family often, and pray the presence of our dear Lord Jesus and the revelation of His Holy Spirit would be yours in a very special, profund way this year. God bless you and keep up the great work! 😃💖🙌

    Happy New Year Jennifer! This is so practical. I'm much better at using my work planner than I'm am with my home planner. I'm a crossing guard supervisor so my work planner is in my car and I use it religiously while I do my rounds. One of my first goals is to use my planner like I use the one for work. Secondly, I must lose weight. It's become a health issue at this point. I have about 35 pounds to lose. Nobody tells you that when you go through the change your fat moves to your tummy putting pressure on the heart. Since my metabolism is so slow, time goals can be discouraging. I will go with an average number per month and be patient and get this stuff off. I'll start with visiting my doctor and ask about intermittent fasting and exercise.

      Please consider seeing a functional doctor who will review all your medical tests monthly as needed. I've needed thyroid meds all my life and finally at 53 have found the correct doctor 5 states away that is helping me put all the puzzle pieces together for my health. He is the 30th doctor (conservative count) I've seen in my adult years and I pay out of pocket (ouch!) I've eaten whole foods in moderation all my adult life, exercised an hour a day 4 days a week and couldn't get the weight off. Menopause is a whole new challenge. Best wishes and all the best, Julie

    I had a moment of clarity while watching this video that I did not expect. I'm an online grad student, and I use most-if not all-of these tips for my studies. They definitely work! I'm also a 40-something divorcee who needs to finish decluttering/organizing my apartment. What often happens when you get divorced is that you end up living somewhere smaller than where you lived while you were married. That means you have a lot of stuff that you're trying to fit into less space. Emotionally, some of this stuff is difficult to go through as well. It's been a decade and a half+ for me, and I still sometimes put things off.
    That is much less often than in the past, thankfully. Now, I'm over being scared or procrastinating out of fear that I might find something upsetting. It has finally become more important and valuable to me to get it done. I try to do a little each day, but it is easy to put off especially with classes starting again.
    I think I'm going to try setting due dates for going through areas of my home and assigning more specific tasks to get things done. Starting at the due date for a paper and working my way back to the present time to plan out how to get the paper written step by step works for class. Being proactive and intentional in doing the same kind of planning and putting it on my actual calendar should do the trick.
    It seems so obvious, but it wasn't. In any case, I do have a motivation to help me stay on track. I'm halfway through my Master's work, so I should be jobhunting within the next year. I expect I will need to move for a job in my field, so having less stuff to move would be ideal. I know that these tips work in one area of my life, so they should translate easily to another. If you don't do planning like this, then I would give it a try. Good luck to all in achieving your goals and developing new habits in the new year! Thanks, @the Daily Connoisseur!

    I have not been able to stay consistent with my planners in the past...buying new ones and using it for a few weeks at the beginning... forgetting for a while and then going back to it.

    I read ‘Atomic Habits’ after viewing your video reviewing the book last year. When I began an exercise & weight loss program in July, I began keeping a record daily of time, distance, and steps on the treadmill, as well as weekly weigh-ins on Monday mornings. It helps immeasurably! I also started a planner in March, 2021 because I felt like I was drifting aimlessly during Covid lockdown and needed to actually See a daily plan/schedule to increase motivation. I have scheduled in the exercise time and it does help to see it written out. Thank-you for these terrific videos & please continue to provide inspiration to us alk.
