Comparison is the thief of joy. So true.
It's my favorite quote!
This was so, so helpful !
I'm new to the planner community (didnt even know it was a thing!) and this video has been really helpful. I work at a startup business and things are ALWAYS changing. The sticky notes were such a great idea for use in the planner. I use sticky notes at work all the time, they're my go to, and never thought of keeping them in my planner. Love it!
"Write it down, and in 6 months when you're upset, I want you to come back here" (not exact quote but I was dying laughing) 😂
I just want to say THANK YOU🤗 THANK YOU🤗 THANK YOU🤗. You have become my go to person for ALL things Happy Planner.
Thanks. I am not new to Happy Planners. I am just one of those that doesn't stick to it. I always had the classic one but this year switched to the big happy planner. Having more room to write will be a key for me to keep it up. I am determined to do it this year! I am excited to watch more of your newbie videos to get ideas to keep me planning all year.
The Pilot Frixion erasable pen is a MUST HAVE for me. I'm not afraid of messing up in my planner because I can always erase a mistake or any changes.
I am SO PICKY about my pens and I just hate the way those write! But it's a great suggestion for people who aren't as picky as me!
Heather Kell I'll admit they write better on the slick paper of a Plum Paper Planner than they do on a HP
Great quote...Comparison is the thief of joy. So true. Great ideas
I love that quote Kelly! It is so true! I have been using a happy planner for 2 or 3 years now and I use to always want mine to look like others but could not do that because it didn't work for me! I had to find a way to plan for me and quit worrying about if it looked as good as everyone else's and when I did that and started posting my photos on Instagram I found out that people liked mine too. They may be different but we all are different and that's how God made us! If everyone was the same and did everything the same, made everything the same then life would be very boring!
OMG! I didn't even think of using the sticky notes in my planner. I've been trying to figure that issue out and thought of using pencils instead but your idea is soooooo much better! Thank you for saving my sanity!!!
Heather, you were right. I didn't see the point in sticky notes, UNTIL this week. I sat down to do some planning and had already written in my planner so of course I was shattered coz I used a crappy pen and hadn't decorated. My whole spread went to poo coz then I had to try to cover things. Lesson learnt
I love your emphasis on making sure your planner is working for you. Decorating and buying all the goodies is a lot of fun but it is still a planner/calendar that should be helping keep you organized.
As a newbie, I must say your channel has been my most viewed. I really like your vibe and personality. Its so nice to find a community on social media you can relate and connect to!
Your advice about sticky notes instead of writing all your events down is so accurate. This year has been such a harsh lesson in that
I have been researching planners for about a week or so and I am SO grateful that I found your channel ... AND I just ordered my first Happy Planner!! I’m so excited!!! My goal for 2019 is to become more organized and to PLAN my life instead of letting my life plan me. I can’t wait for my planner to get here and get started on setting it up. Between now and then, I will be binge watching your videos for insight and inspiration! Thank you so much for all of the help and information!
This was a great video. 2019 will be my first time using the Happy Planner and I'm soooo excited and your videos ha been so great to watch. Thank you for all the time you put into this community.
My eyes got so round at your flip through of the transformer planner 😍😍😍
Oh the don’t write everything immediately down is the best advice I need! I don’t like my handwriting so I’m always a bit anxious to start. And than I just stop using it. So this is perfect. I’m going to start post it’s first.
"Comparison is the thief of joy" this is something I really must remember as I start my planning journey, especially as the first few months will be mostly pen only and I have neither pretty handwriting nor any artistic ability 😅 Thanks for taking the time to make such an informative and helpful video!
You can also use erasable pens....love mine...and they come in so many colors!
Heather you were right! Lol
Dont write in your planner cause it does make you sad and mad about it if it does change. Thank you for the sticky note list. 💜
“DON’T DO THIS EVER!” 🤣 Honestly, that’s exactly what I would have done.....filled in the whole dang month. lol Thanks for the tip!
The sticky notes is the best tip!!! This is my 3rd year of planning and the first year I’m going to use sticky notes! I ALWAYS catch myself planning ahead and then plans will change or I’ll be mad I didn’t utilize a cute sticker for it! Also when I go ahead and write a bunch of stuff, I get to that week and don’t have any room to add stuff or “plan my week” and use stickers. So this year I’ve told myself I am not allowed to write in my planner more than a week ahead unless I just use a sticky note! Lol
Thank you. Newbie here. It’s nice to have a starting point.
I just ordered my first planner I'm so excited I'll be watching all of your videos
Thanks for the tips! I got a planner that is not much more than a calendar. I plan to remove and set aside the second six months, then add journal sheets as needed. This will keep my planner at a reasonable size.
Sticky notes are awesome but if you dont have sticky notes using a pencil and writing lightly could work to.
That's a good suggestion, too!
Frixon erasable pens are awesome too...
Fran Lynch - yes!! I use those & their highlighters. Love them!
that's what I do and it works fine
Fran Lynch less paper waste, too!! 💚🌎🌱
I just want to say thank you for your videos I have watched them and enjoyed them so much that me and my family all have planners and have a planner party once a week and have a blast planning and seeing one of your videos so again thank you for the videos :)
On a sticky note! I love it! Thanks for sharing. You make me smile! Sticky note!
Oh my GOODNESS! I NEVER would have thought to put the covers on each of the sections. I was over here trying to figure out how in the world to divide my mini planner because I don't really like the mini dashboards I have. SUCH a good idea. THANK YOU HEATHER!
Grabbed a planner today and decided to CZcams planners and 🤯 a whole little community! New subbie 👋🏽
Ditto! 😊
Thanks Heather! I'm not new to planning, but these were very helpful tips. I will definitely be using more sticky notes.
Yay! I'm glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!
That’s why I love erasable color pens. Sticky notes are super cute but I try to avoid anything that would make my already bulky planner, bulky. Your planner looks so fun and creative!
Thank you Heather. What a wonderful video for us newbies. I appreciate all time you have put into your videos.
Great tips, Heather! Any newbies watching are in great company. Creative Planner Blessings!
"Heather, you were right." Lol!!! #LoveThis #YouWereRight I wish I had that insight years ago. Thanks!
The year at a glance page you made is a great idea. I know EC has pages designed like that. 👍🏻
HEather I just wanted to share with you how much I enjoyed this video. This will be year 2 for me in the Happy Planner and all the comments you made in this video still apply to me. You were the first planner babe I starting watching a year ago and I'm still learning from you. So excited for the new year and "my" planner set up that i have learned for myself over the past year.

This will be my second year as well. I think I went overboard on planners because they’re all so pretty. But I don’t have great uses for all of them. Currently sitting watching this video with all the planners around me trying to decide what to do...
If you write in your planner & need to change something, you can use your sticky notes to cover up what you wrote & then rewrite or just leave blank until you have an event to add on that date.
I am loving your bangles you’re wearing. They are super cute! I love bangles!! Great video idea!
Thank you. Although I am not new to planning, I am new to using the happy planner AND to using a vertical layout (I was a EC horizontal girl before). Excited to use my glam girl when it gets here
TY for all your great advice very helpful❤😊
Hi ! Thank you so ever much for your video ! I'd my first planners (one for teacher, one classic.. and a LOT of mambi stickers books !!!) for christmas, and your video is helping even if I don't understand all of what you say/write (i'm a french girl). So THANKS !!!
YAY! Welcome to Happy Planner!
"You're gonna come back here and say Heather... you were right" LOL 😆
i just got my first happy planner "create a happy life " planner for christmas :) i love it ,,, and i love your videos thank you for sharing them with us and helping us newbies :) Merry Christmas and Happy New Year 2019..
cherokeecowgirl78 that’s the one I got
This was just what I needed, I've got sticky notes but had no idea what to use them for, thanks Heather. First time planner😊
If you mess up, cover it up. That’s the fun of stickers. I made that exact mistake before I discovered the stickers. Still waiting for my fun sticky note to arrive
Thank you for sharing! I started my first Happy Planner a couple years ago but beyond decorating I wasn't sure how to really use it! You have given me a better insight into the planner world! Thank you!
Thank you so much Heather. You help me very much.
I'm a newbie so far I have liked ever videos I have seen .......you're very inspiring
You guys in America are so lucky to have so many shops that sell sticky notes apart from the standard boring yellow post it notes with an occasional variation from our version of Michaels Joannes etc being Officeworks... They don’t sell things like this.. So off to Etsy, eBay, and Google I go... although your video is about the happy planner, I’ve just got my dream Filofax! Already using it, but with my boring sticky notes that I am trying to make interesting. Are used to be really arty, but then due to a neurological condition my hands have started to fail me. But I can still right enough to plan.. Thank God!
If you’re like me and you’re not a huge fan of sticky notes- use the frixion eraseable pens! I LOVE them!! Come in tons of colors and erase very well
Great alternative choice! I love those pens too
I love how you set it up! I've added a couple of different sections to my Happy Planner before too. Just didn't work for me at the time. I had my regular weekly and monthly, a budget section, a work section, and a groceries section. 💜
Kell... Thanks so much for all of your videos!! This year (2019) I plan on using a classic transformer planner for my household / family stuff & the mini planner for my personal life & wellness. It's a lil overwhelming and your video helps me to get clear on how to use them to work for me. So excited to get organized and make my goals come to fruition!! I'll be watching so keep the good information coming!!
Love the covers you showed, thank you for the video
You are so right about Dont wright into your planner first thing when getting it. I'm a newbie planner and I have learned that as I've had a few things cancelled and had to cross them out and move to another day, so putting it onto a sticky note is a very valuable lesson. TFS some great advice xx
This is a fantastic idea!!! Great job, Heather. Thank you for sharing.
I just got mine for first time ever and also 1 for my daughter. Thank you you helped me decide to get it 🌷
Hi! You're phrase, "Comparison is the thief of joy" really hit home with me. It's a phrase I will commit to memory and use often until such time as I'm no longer comparing myself to others in a detrimental way. Thank you so much!!!
Thanks for the tip of highlighting birthdays,holidays and ect
I love the sticky note book idea. I must try that this week. Thank you.
Using sticky notes is great for a monthly task that needs to be done. Just move the sticky note every month!
Hi, new to your channel, love the sticky notes idea, and your right, cute is better.
I have birthdays. Angel dates and school days (when off school) written in my monthly. I have never been a sticky girl but you have me wanting to try them again!
Awesome video!! So many useful tips!!! :)
Thanks for the video. I’m new to the planner community, got my first Big Happy Planner and I’m excited! But a little bit overwhelmed. I’m in the Atlanta,GA area and ready to connect for some meet ups too 😊
I'm so excited to begin! I received my first planner for Christmas-big sized. Purchased stickers,washi tape, and hourly pages today. Your videos are soooo helpful. Just subscribed. Looking forward to more! Blessings.
I love that quote. Never heard it before. Thank you for sharing and leaving it engraved in my mind so I can actually enjoy my planner!
Thank you for this video. I’m new to planning, and literally opened my planner yesterday, and stared at it blankly, thinking “What do I do now?!!!” This was extremely helpful in giving me ideas on how to start!❤️
I wrote ahead!!! 😢 I plan to use white out and cute stickers to cover the ugly when I get there but I also got an extension pack on sale and I may redo some if I have to. They should add your tips on every planner, most of the things I wrote down are diagonal. I’m trying to figure out how to use the planner for myself. So far I’m just buying things and I don’t even know what I’m doing with these things, but they were on sale!! I’m turning this ship around this weekend and getting my planner functional. Taking out the future months seems so simple, it never crossed my mind at first. I’m still trying to figure out a layout I like for the weekly view. I thought I would do kids on the top line, me on the 2nd, and misc. on the third. But that’s not working so I’m in search of functional planning. When I look at my last two weeks it just looks like chaos. My monthly view looks like chaos! I need a system and I believe that’s the hard part for most of us. I like the stickers and cute stuff but I need to figure out a system first. I don’t see how people use multiple planners and my plan at the moment is like what you did. I ordered dividers to separate my needs for lists, worship, goals, work, and budget. I plan to put them all together because keeping up with more than one sounds like a horrible idea. I need one item to “go to” for them all. I need less stress and more structure.
Thank you this was so helpful and detailed. You answered all my questions
Lol! I will come back and say ‘Heather, you were right.’ Lol You make me smile. Love your videos.❤️❤️❤️
So many ideas! Love
Wow I’m not even finished with the video, I’m so excited!
Such a great video!
I totally agree “Sticky notes” are your friend! 💯💯
You made me order sticky notes with my new planner for 2019 that will be Modern Chic. Haven't used sticky notes, but love that tip.
This was so helpful! Especially sticky notes and transformer planning! I was frankenplanning but really missing all my cute covers. Thank you!
i am planning to do my very first planner this coming 2020, I was kindda lost because there's so much I can't absorb to everything I watch. But yours makes it super easy. will now watch you 101s. thank you for this.
I like the year at a glance. I'm an EC transplant and am still figuring out who I am.in a Happy Planner. (And you are at least partially tow credited with helping me make the switch)
Thank you!!!! I love your videos!!! They are always so helpful! 😍😍😍
I got my first happy planner for Christmas!!!! 💞🙌🏻🖤
I have learned so much from you! I was doing it all wrong! That’s all about to change starting this month! I need to plan this week, so I’ll be doing that in the morning! I feel like I’m a little late... but it’s all good! I’ve been binge watching your videos and just found this one and I wish I would have found it sooner! I feel like I wouldn’t have struggled so badly through February, when I started using my planner. Ugh! You live and learn!
I love you Heather... just love love love you!
Every year... and I mean every year... I get my new planner... and go... hmmmmm... now what?
I always want to make it better, more purposeful and useable! I buy a bigillion new stickers because yep... I need those to make it work better...
2 weeks into the new planner... I revert back to just writing and mismatched stickers. I’m a stay home mom to 2 teens and I watch my granddaughter. So in reality I don’t need it for anything but a few appointments each year.
I’ve learned from you to be real... to not stress over beautification. Get in the groove... then start adding decor!
While i’m in love with so many sticker shops... I have to say I grab my Happy Planner Sticker books most often.
This year, i’m down sizing my planner line up.
I chose not to transformer plan... but i’m running 3 in one book.
Lined vertical, standard vertical and budget... then I got the Krissyanne Design Desk calendar for the wall.
My lined will be my tasks... everyone’s work schedule, appointments
The vertical will be mor memory keeping, and beautiful layouts,
Budget... yep... just that
The desk one will hang on the wall for everyone to view daily and add to it as needed!
Aw thank you!
Great tips! I bought a Happy Planner for my sister-in-law. I will definitely direct her to this video. Also, I can't wait to transition to my new planner next week! I'm using Girl Gang as well!
Thank you for making this video! It was very helpful, great ideas! I look forward to seeing the rest of your videos. I bought My first Happy Planner a year ago after I bought the wedding planner, I very rarely used my planner because I had no idea on how to use it
I just purchased my first happy planner.. Not sure what to do.. But I'm excited to start using it. I need my life organized..
I very much appreciate your help with me being practical of my planning style for 2019!!!!
Your videos are so helpful! You are so creative!!! Thank you for the sticky note tip. I have already been using white out😕. On a side note, I love your nails!
VERY EXCITED new to planning and now working hARD ON my writing career i need to learn t plan and follow the plan so excited fir the information
Heather, this video was awesome, even for us old timers. I got some great ideas. And I learned about the preplanning with post it notes some time ago. Your videos are always awesome.
This is so helpful. I just ordered my first happy planner. I’m so excited.

Love, love, love your year at a glance! I always get so many great ideas from you! RTR
Can you please do a video on how to plan in a non-happy planner
I just bought a planner last week and I felt like this lol. Love the sticky note tip. Perfect example, I had class scheduled on Thursday, but it was moved to Friday (but I already wrote it in). Thanks for this video, it really helped me realize what all I can do with my planner.
Thank you so much for spelling it out for us newbies!!!
That is amazing!! I love love how you transform into different planners😍😍
Im loving the booklet with all your sticky notes, where did you get it?
TFS.. I'm a New planner looking for ideas to start my first planner..🙏💜
I wish I would have seen this sooner!
Newbie here ☺️ Just wanted you to know that I was lucky enough to find your channel and truly appreciate all of the info,
