    13:32 I know you have a deep appreciation for just being who you are, but I feel like I hear you worry about this idea of being ‘too much’ for your potential audience more than you deserve to. There is always going to be a small but very vocal group of people who are offended by practically anything. Sometimes they’re in the right, but this is one of those times where I suspect you are giving that crowd far more credit than they deserve. I suspect most folks out in the world aren’t really offended by the way you talk, and particularly if they know you and understand your reasoning which makes perfect sense.
    The people who are offended are simply not your audience. I run a marijuana themed sticker store and I would never go up in the hobby lobby worrying about what any of those people thought of me. They are not my audience, they are not people whose opinions matter to me. And therefore I just don’t care what they think or about impressing them. But to regular average people out in the real world, I actually really enjoy showing off who I am and what I stand for now, because I feel (or at least hope) that it demonstrates the positive side of something that somebody might find offensive. Rather than just letting people think all stoners are lazy dipshits, I enjoy going out and declaring how much I love weed and how productive I am and how hard-core I’m working on my business and my friendships and relationships and worldly things that matter in life.
    When I hear you talk and I hear you swear... sure people could just go along being offended. But hearing you declare how swearing isn’t bad as long as you’re not trying to hurt people, and demonstrating How are you are such a cool fucking person and yet swear at the same time... I think it helps demonstrate to people that it’s not a big deal and that you can both be awesome and say the words that are in your head at the same time. 😉
    If I could offer you any comments for the start of the new decade, it’s that you are absolutely fucking amazing in so many ways, and I really would like to put it on your spirit to consider leaning in on that instead of feeling self conscious about it . 💗💗💗💗
    Lots and lots and lots of love and well wishes from the CannaPlanning household!!

      @@CindyGuentertBaldo I can't tell you how hard I feel you. I'm very much the same and actually had a difficult transition at first, but eventually, i just started pleasing a different crowd and it turned out to be way more rewarding cause I was happier too :D Just as long as you know how great you are!

      Mari W it’s funny you say that, I subscribed for this exact reason! I love the way her personality comes through in her choice of words. It doesn’t feel fake or rehearsed, or scripted. I love the genuine personality and her swearing doesn’t keep me away in the least, in fact it made me feel more excited to see her content and come back to this channel. I get such a badass boss woman from her and I love it!

    Thank you for sharing this sometimes deeply personal information.. I wish you all the very best with all of your goals next year. I am 55 and I have never really had goals.. everytime someone says to me “make goals” my mind goes completely blank and I kind of shrink into myself... some of the self analysis stuff that has been put in front of me before seems so daunting. and yes a little woohoo too! So I have ended up saying that this isn’t for me and dismissing it, meaning I am never any further on.. Seeing someone else fill this kind of thing out has been really helpful. you have made me realise that a “goal” doesn’t have to be some super duper big thing, that working towards an emergency fund, having a meaningful routine (and actually DOING it!) or wanting to learn a specific skill can actually be goals... so get me, I have now have three for 2020! And I think now my mind is kind of on that track I am sure I will come up with a few more... why has it taken me so frickin long to realise this?? Aggghhh! So already you are inspiring people.. thank you xx

    I feel like you are starting 2020 in a really clear headed place -- you have some really good reflections and zeroed in on awareness and really narrowed in on the what's and whys.
    I think it's amazing that you kept up with power sheets all of 2019 and you've really really come so far!! I'm really excited to follow along for 2020!

    Thank you for going through the power sheets. I am almost done with mine, but struggle in a few areas. I love the way yours seem to flow together. I will be rewatching this as
    I review what I have written and to help me in the areas that I am struggling with.

    I have been really busy getting ready for the holidays, so I need to sit down and finish my prep.
    Edited to add: I have never questioned society's notion that in order to be happy you have to be healthy, so it's really important to me that you are having this conversation about being happy despite a chronic illness. It gives me hope for my own happiness.

  • @shawniehendrix1656
    @shawniehendrix1656 Před 4 lety +1

    Thank you for all you do, Cindy. I wanted to encourage you with your health - my Dad is on dialysis and has been for many years, he has PKD - he was the poster child for PKD because (until a couple of years ago) he played tennis 🎾 three days a week opposite the dialysis days. He just turned 79 on December 25, 2019. His doctor says his attitude is everything. He believes it is his faith. I personally believe he’s doing so well because of BOTH. I’M SO GRATEFUL TO HAVE HIM & my Mama ALIVE AND LIVING SO CLOSE TO ME. (10 min away). SO - wow 🤩 you are a superstar and I have been drawn to your channel for about a year now - I will be honest, your fear of being a burden even if dialysis becomes a thing for you - let me tell you my Dad is the furthest thing from a burden for us. I am a new subscriber. I want to support you because I could easily hear my thoughts with your words! Girl, I’m gonna’ say this in love - I think the language issue is just something you can decide on what your priorities are- there will always be people who are offended by your colorful language, so if the numbers are your priority decide if maybe there are some words you can choose if you are interested in managing- if not F-it you do you and let the number of “Duuudes” fall in organically (people will be weeded out - but like the weed shop owner said before me “they’re not your people”) that said (and again I’m emphasizing the love here) if you do want to reach a larger audience and you feel your language might be an issue then cultivate what matters TO YOU. Back to the health issue: PKD ran through our family (my grandfather, my father and my brother) so I understand the fear factors around PKD, but be encouraged even with PKD your lifestyle choices (food choices etc) do actually have a lot of impact on your health (or so my Dad’s doctors have told us so). Prayers for you and your family to take it one day at a time.

    Man, I was not ready for this feels.
    I'm 30 and I'm afraid of losing my parents so much. I'm a solo daughter and I'm afraid of they both diyng or wanting to move to some far away place. I really loved how truly you were through the proccess, and I'm really thinking about answering those prompts, they're scary as fuck for me, but maybe it will help to better my life this year, a help to overcome depression and my impostor syndrome. Thank you for existing, Cindy.

    Cindy, this video helped me a lot. This is my first year with power sheets. I also want to let you know that I added you to my grateful list because I enjoy your videos so much and as someone who enjoys planning videos and also has a chronic illness, your realness keeps me on track where the wheat videos just can't lol. But seriously, you rock and I think you should know that you've actually helped keep me on track with my planning!

    Pausing as you talk about your fears. I have a 17 yr old son- just been me and him since I adopted him at six months. I know how scary it is to begin to let go. That said, I have watched enough of your videos to know that your kids adore you. They circle you. I love the pen test videos where you and Kat collaborate. And, I always remember a video way back when someone commented about a health issue they were having (can't remember what it was)- RJ must have asked you a hundred times to explain the diagnosis. It was just adorable. I promise you won't lose them (and this comes from someone who also lost their parents at a young age).

    I think your an amazing person Cindy! You have accomplished so much in this past year given the pain you have. I have the powersheets and I want to do them but my life is a wreck physically, mentally and financially. It is so overwhelming and I feel like I will end up disappointing myself if I can't find any success. Life is hard, much harder then I ever envisioned for myself. Watching your success is i inspirational. I'm hoping that 2020 will be better. Thank you for putting yourself out there.

    Hey, Cindy, both my Mom’s parents died in their 50s but she lived until 83. There’s good precedent for you surviving longer than your own folks. But I know the fear is a little animal that gnaws at us regardless of logic or optimism. We’ve all got to live with that little beast but it does give us the gift of motivation.

I'm not in pain everyday but I'm not doing the things I want to do because I'm afraid because I have cancer. I could be doing more and you inspire me to see that I can't stop living simply because I have to fight harder to live right now. Thank you for being here, I feel I am spending time with a friend when I watch your videos. See ya in the next video my dude!!!

    Thank you for sharing! I loved seeing your progress last year. Your video last year inspired me to look more into goal setting. I didn’t hit some of my goals but I achieved five big ones! I’m so excited to set my new goals and revisit why I dropped the ball on a few goals from this past year.

  • @craftingaplannedlifejoanna9291

    Girl...I love you and your honesty. I want you to know how hard it hits me when you were talking about your fears. I was literally CRYING because I so related to the same things. I too have been working on my Power Sheets prep and have written down very similar fears...I guess I thought I was the only person who feared rejections, etc. I look forward to watching you finish your goals & January Tending List. I'm in the process of relaunching my channel (I kinda fell off the band wagon--was feeling very vulnerable & it got the best of me). I've been struggling whether or not about doing a video on my prep or simply waiting to just do a recap of my final goals for 2020 & my January Tending List. I guess I fear what people would think. I hate feeling vulnerable.

  • @fountainpenandpaper1379

    I subscribed a while ago and I've been watching all your videos from the year and finally got caught up. I appreciate your authenticity, honesty and overall fun personality. I'm so excited to continue to watch your content and hopefully catch a live 🤞🏾.
    I bought the 2020 powersheets and this will be my first time using them. Hopefully it will help me to make some good progress on my goals. One of those is to graduate my undergrad with a 3.0 or higher GPA after having such a rough time. For me GPA isn't everything but I also feel like having at least a 3.0 will make me feel like all of my effort was well worth it 😄

    @victoriav.6619 Před 4 lety

    I would love to see the planning process and quarterly breakdown BEFORE the new year starts if you have time. I'm going to be rewatching all you powersheets and reflecting on your bullet journal and all those end-of-the-year type vids at thevery end of December to give me a framework for my own planning and goal setting. I know once the new year actually starts ill be able to focus on my goals (rather than the wording and setup of them) if that's already done. Obviously I'll watch it whenever you do it though!

  • @lizarcher7143
    @lizarcher7143 Před 4 lety

    Cindy, you are doing a good job. I’m a new subscriber and I love your attitude and sass, your sprinkled “colorful” language makes me laugh, and, being over 40, I enjoy watching someone who isn’t in her 20’s, has kids, has the messy parts of life, and embraces it. Thank you.
    I struggle with my kids growing up and starting to move on as well, and I too have issues with my parents.

    New subbie! Thank you for your transparency and vulnerability. Reinforces my courage to open myself up to be the same way. 🙏🏽 oh yeah, I have a mouth like a sailor (not because I have a limited vocabulary, at all) but because it’s like seasoning on a yummy dish. Just a little something extra! Lol. But my point is, when you cursed at the very beginning, you drew me in to listen for more - because that meant you were at least willing to be honest & real, regardless of what others think. And I honor authenticity more than anything!

  • @freckledfiasco
    @freckledfiasco Před 4 lety

    I don’t do power sheets, but I definitely do a vision board & break down goals that way. This year is a big birthday, 30, and I’m adding things I want to accomplish before then - but with people. Things to do with my husband, my kids, etc. I’m grateful to be part of your community! You’ve been so encouraging, on more then just my planner journey. Thanks for what you do Cindy!

    I used Powersheets last year and really liked them, but I felt they were a little too expensive for me this year and I absolutely hate the new binding (I know this probably makes me ridiculously picky, but I just couldn't do it). I'm hoping to make time to do some of the prep work in just a notebook using last year's prompts, though! It was great to see how you work through this, and to be reminded to split it up and not feel like I have to get it done all at once.

    Thank you so much for making this video. Really. I am so grateful for your honesty and for sharing your kidney disease journey. I have a seizure disorder which means 3 to 4 full tonic-clonic “grand mal” seizures a week, chronic pain, a crap ton of injuries, etc... My point is that we share similar feelings like not wanting to be a burden, knowing that with time, things are going to get more difficult and yes, it will likely kill me in the end. However, like you, I try to live my life without letting these fears swallow me up. I have 3 children, they are 25, 23 and 12yrs old. My two cents on the transition between kids becoming teenagers and then adults is this: when your kids are young, you spend a lot of time managing their lives because you have to, they are kids! But as they grow up, your role changes from being a manager to being more of a coach because they have to manage their own lives, but you are there to give guidance and support. I hope I am making sense... Just that mind shift has helped me a lot. My two oldest are adults living their lives in a different city but we are so close emotionally, they are my favourite people to hang out with and I am so proud that they are awesome human beings who are happy (what more could I ask for?) As far as turning 40, it was a big scary year for me too... But somehow, a switch sort of flipped in my mind and instead of dreading it, I embraced it and every birthday since then has been a celebration, I fucking made it! I am 45 now and I’m still kicking! Anyway, thank you again for your videos, I watch them all. I bought the powersheets this year after seeing you use them. I’ve been scared to dive in, but after this video I am ready. If it weren’t for your video I am pretty sure that feeling overwhelmed, the powersheets would have just stayed on my desk gathering dust. So again, thank you so much, you rock.

    I’m not using the actual power sheet journal because I’m in the uk and funds are looooooow. However I picked up a dot journal the other day and whilst Bullet journaling didn’t work for me I’m going to make that dot journal into my own version of power sheets in a way that will work for me. I’m so excited to see your check ins throughout the year and do my own little check ins on my Instagram to hold myself accountable!

    Ok Cindy, you have inspired me to jump in. I ordered my Powersheets today. I have never set goals for myself outside of school and work. Honest coming up: I have been too terrified to set goals for myself and not reach them. But then I also feel bad because what am I doing with myself? Maybe it is time to start working on me this year. Hopefully I will follow through. Thank you for always putting yourself out there and letting us see the real person that is you. 😘🤗😘🤗

I am confused about monthly vs. weekly goals and how to mark off the monthly. Everyone keeps saying to mark your progress...well I would like to see it in action and you seem like an action girl to me!

I have some definite opinions about how I made that work over the years. My parents were both abusive, and I worked hard to be different. I did it. Would love to talk with you about this.

Love everything about this video except the language.

    I haven’t started yet because of lack of energy from work but starting today I have almost 2 weeks off to spend with family and not worry about work, etc.
    I’m hoping to set aside an hour each day the rest of this week (maybe more the next 2-3 days) to fill this stuff out, and I think I may be using Laken’s approach for sure (8 major themes with a goal from each in each quarter).

    I struggle with being SMART about my goals (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, time-specific) and I also think I shy away from accountability. I can get uber competitive with others and myself, and then crash and burn because I push too hard/too much. There. I said it! On a public platform!

    I enjoyed this so much!
    Like you, one of my main goals is being better at communicating with friends/family. It’s just too easy to go on FB and scroll and see them- when what I really am missing is the phone conversations and real life bonding. So that is one of my priorities this year, to let the people I love know it... and to fucking show it 💕
    I feel you on this kiddos; I am a single mom and only one son. He is leaving for the Navy in January and it’ll be me and the dog. I’m storing here having a little selfish potty party of “ now wtf am i supposed to do with myself”...so I’m going to try to turn that negative thinking into positive spending time with myself, maybe jump back into the dating pool, spend more time on photography & get back to being creative.
    Financial peace and my health are also my top goals.
    I’m stuck where you left off, so I walked away and will come back to it after the holidays how to exactly envision the small steps I need to make. I might need to go back and re-evaluate how I listed my goals because I feel i was very simple.

    Hey Cindy, your video about hating your bullet journal came up in my recommendations the other day and I was intrigued. I’ve had issues with my bullet journals as well. I find your videos very nice to watch, your honesty and ‘no bullshittery’ style I really like, I’ve been watching several of your videos over the past few days. Today as I was watching this one and you mentioned about being better about not procrastinating I actually started on a few things I’ve been procrastinating on myself this week, some of which is actually in the category of relaxing me-time. I like the idea of the Powersheets, I’m not one to use a book like this but I’ve actually started up something similar in an app called Notion just last week to set goals for myself and explorer what is important to me. The stuff in this book is giving me some ideas to incorporate in my system. Normally when I see a video with this many comments I don’t bother adding my own since I figure it won’t matter (self confidence issues!) but since you mentioned how much the comments do for you I figured I would add this anyway. ❤️😄

    • @CindyGuentertBaldo
      @CindyGuentertBaldo  Před 4 lety +1

    • @CraftyKarin
      @CraftyKarin Před 4 lety

      Cindy Guentert-Baldo Thanks for you comment! I’ll remember that the next time I think I won’t bother commenting. By the way, the Notion App is just a system for keeping all different kinds of notes, task lists, and so on, it’s not specific to goals but being a bit of a nerd I like how in Notion you can set up all these linked tables, and then expand each item into a page where you can put just about anything you want. So I have a list of goals, a list of projects related to those goals, then tasks related to the projects and so on. I want to use it to catalog books, video’s, articles and so on I find inspiring. And it helps me tackle one of my big issues which is having all kinds of things I want to do in my head in my ‘free time’ and not really doing much of it, because I often suffer from something I’ve found the name for a while ago, perfectionism paralysis. Basically for me it’s just fear of failure that’s stopping me from getting started on things, so I have all these ideas running around in my head that seem great but when I sit down to actually do one of them I get scared and nothing comes out. Or I’m just sitting on the couch, not being able to pick which one I want to do, end up not doing any of them and flogging myself for time wasted. Oh and I also want to figure out how I can be more content with myself so I don’t have this constant need to do stuff to feel like I’m worthy. Ok, now I’m actually rambling. My apologies 😆 I think I’ll go check my task list and find something labelled ‘relaxation’ 🤣
