Got a few new ideas to try out for 2024. I appreciated that you said to make the planner work for you. And don’t get caught up in the “right way” to use it. My notebooks and planners are no longer treated as precious and that has helped me to just use them.
I'm really enjoying your videos, you explain the basics well without too much creativity (I'm not a creative person!). Your video about mental health was useful because I struggle with an unreasonable amount of "issues." Often I make lists, then don't look at them. Or just don't feel like moving. I'm trying to find something to use this year (ONE planner only) that would be more helpful than what I've been doing for the last too-many years. Unfortunately I've fallen down the planner rabbit hole and feel even more confused than when I started. I look forward to more videos from you. Sheri
Glad you found these videos helpful! 💛 Sending you strength and love with whatever you struggle with. One planner only is great, I get overwhelmed if I have too much to keep track of which is counter productive :)
I love the cousin because of its versatility. I know a lot of people feel the need to fill everything out, but that’s really not necessary. Fill out what’s needed for the day, week, or month. Sometimes that’ll be filling out the entire weekly or just sticking to the daily, yet because the cousin has it you have the option for versatility
I'm so happy to have discovered your channel! I also want to say a big thank you for editing the CC for all your videos, it makes such a difference. Even many big channels don't take the time to make their videos accessible, so I appreciate your work! Keep going ❤
The weekly is why I decided to leave the cousin because I felt like I was just using the daily pages to journal. I figured a Stalogy would be better than the cousin since it's cheaper. Now you've got me rethinking it all, lol.
Your ideas on the mock-up pages were excellent! I am using a bullet journal and want to set up a month to try the vertical weekly format, as you are showing in your planner. Your ideas have really helped me to gather ideas for my planner now! Have a nice day!
Just discovered your channel and I really appreciate this video in particular. It was very thoughtful and I think could be helpful for me on my low days. I gotta keep in mind the "what if everything works out" anti-anxiety mantra too 🤔
And just like that, I think I have finally fond the perfect layout for Me. I used to not like vertical layout, you proved me wrong. I really enjoy your videos ❤
Thank you for sharing not just what you do/have tried, but other ideas as well. Having all those ideas in one single video is going to be so helpful next time I'm inevitably bored of my current weekly thing and need to change it up a bit. Also thank you for the subtitles!
I came from the planner that came before common planner and wonderland 222, the Jibun Techo (JT), it is just a vertical weekly. It is why I switched to the Hobonichi Cousin instead of the A6. Where the JT outshines the Cousin is the built in Gantt Charts, or as a lot of users use them, as habit trackers. They have one already laid out for each month. It is pretty much the same after that without the daily pages. They do sell a daily, but carrying around two books where one book only, the cousin, was easier on my back for my university backpack.
Wow, this was helpful and totally doable for me! I’m moving into the spring cousin after realizing that I need more space than the weeks offers, and I’m saving this video. Thank you
Thanks so much for showing my weekly spread!! 🥺 And thanks for another great video! SO many great ideas - truly one to suit everyone, I think! I love how thoroughly you explain everything in all of your videos 🥰
No problem - I love how you break up your days and how you track your special interests. I’ve been inspired to do that myself to make sure I engage in them regularly. And Thank you so much 🥰
This is a great video. You have some unique ideas, I’m going back to a weekly layout paper planner this year which is my comfort zone and am excited to try some of them out.
Wow!! I got sooooo much out of this!! 🙌🏻🎉 Thank you! I’m excited to implement some of these ideas into my cousin right now and also get excited about my new one for 2024! I’m so glad I found your channel!
Great ideas, now I know what to do with the weekly section. I just got my first Hobonichi Cousin Avec this summer and have been changing up everything in it since then. It will be nice to have some "planner peace" for next year, thanks !
it was so helpful as a uni student trying to balance readings and CZcams vlogs, this was so helpful to get me started to get me organise so I can start having a more regular schedule for my CZcams channel
Got a Hobonichi Cousin for 2024. It's my first time using this type of planner, and it was a bit overwhelming at first, but videos like yours have given me tons of ideas and hope that my adhd brain will handle it well and not just...chuck it to the side because it's too much lol
Hey Lindsey….. love love love the video…. I had kinda given up on planning until I saw ur video…. It was rly helpful….. hope u do well with your mental health and have a great day ❤
Thank u so much for making this video, I got a common planer but I don't like vertical weeklies 😅 I was gonna force myself to do time tracking but I kinda had a feeling it wouldn't do much for me. Thank u again I'm feeling more excited now about the layout ^^ this video is my prayers answered lol
I use the long form yearly columns at the beginning of the avec to track my reading, I write the title of the books I read in each month. I like seeing it there, because I get to see all the books I've read as the 6 months continue...
It’s so funny to hear the general consensus about the vertical weekly, cuz for ME it’s the only part of the planner I actually use 😭😭 cuz it’s how I see time in my brain!! Kinda. Not exactly, but it’s close enough to where I never want to see another horizontal weekly again in my life. And I can’t function with a planner that’s just monthly and daily, I’d rather switch out the dailies for a vertical weekly (I don’t prefer monthlies, but I do need them for planning purposes, I think the yearly index is more so how I envision time within months, but there’s not enough room to write more than one thing down ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ). So sorry to the A6 hobonichi I bought cuz it was cheaper, I barely used you 😔 so this year I’m getting a common planner lol
My planners doesn't have the vertical weekly layout pages. But the sidebar ideas you mention in the video is good for sidebar in the monthly pages. Thank you for sharing 👏

I didn’t mean to read your entries but I also smiled at The Secret Society of Irregular Witches!
That’s okay! I’m OBSESSED with that book 🥰
BUT I WANT TO DO IT ALL! The mind of a planner/bujo addict 😩😅 thanks for the great ideas :)
I absolutely feel this pain 😭

Just bought my first Hobonichi Techo Cousin. I love the name "Notebook Overload." Subscribed! 🎉
this was very very very helpful for me - thank you

Thank you for this video!! So cool that u have so many ideas! I'm deciding between a A5 or a A6....!

Vertical weeklies can be so tricky and hard to keep up momentum. THANK YOU for this amazing video!!
I agree it very overwhelming. This the key reason why I choose Cousin. Btw what highlighter and pen you use. Thanks
I use the weekly for my time block planning.
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😮😮😮😮 thanks, it is very motivating
Great video, love the content on functional planning. But, how can I ignore the times on the weekly (lol).
Probably cover with white out or a thin washi tape or sticker
Brb you reminded me I need to order my groceries
Thanks from current me and big time thank you from future me!
Finished the video now. That was very helpful, thanks!
Lol, happy to help! 😁 glad you enjoyed the vid!
My planners doesn't have the vertical weekly layout pages. But the sidebar ideas you mention in the video is good for sidebar in the monthly pages. Thank you for sharing 👏
