I agree social media always makes me want to switch out my system. I now limit how much I watch. I have had planner burnout for sure, when I do I have to simplify.
I am having this same problem... I have used A5 for 6 years for my work planner. I got a sterling ink A6 to see if I could get into a personal planner. Than I got a papertess weeks planner for fitness...then I got notebooks to help organize notes separately... then I got the Midori Hibino as a journal though I have not journaled EVER. Now, there's so much stuff - I just don't like to do any of it anymore. I am deciding I need to just stay with 1, and then stop. I want the weeks to work so much. Loved the papertess weeks design - however, I just can't get it to work... I don't carry my planners around and I have to use a lot of items at my desk for work... PLANNER BURNOUT IS REAL!
Tell me about it😂😂 You excite yourself into complete paralysis and then you feel so stuck! I could write a book,lol. Will I ever stop though????? Doubtful 🤣
I am a planner lover. Each and every year I buy Jibun Techo A5 (work) A5 rings (home management) pocket rings (quick random notes and appointments) Hobonichi Weeks (EDC and wallet) and Hobonichi A6 Original (memory keeping) I love them all, I use them all. And I also buy A6 rings and Personal inserts just in case I feel like leaving pocket size for a while. Life sometimes brings surprises and I need to change my planner system in busy/quiet moments.
Thank you for validating my current feelings. I have the beautiful Journey planner and thought it would perfect. It is, I just don't feel like planning. I thought it must just be me and what's wrong with me anyway. I have a huge investment in stickers and beautiful covers, etc. and truly all I want to do is make a list. LOL! I'm so glad I came upon your video. Burnout is real.
I started out 2024 with the Weeks and the A6 Techo....I got them all set up during December and then couldn't get into using either of them 😢 I was so frustrated! So I decided to go back to what I had used at the beginning of my planner journey in 2017-2018, which is the narrow/ standard. I got a new cover not that I needed it lol, the CS Bella cascade pockets in narrow, cut down a stalogy and made my own weekly spread and all the things, got the TNC 2024 monthly.... and now I'm back to enjoying planning and journaling again. I know what worked for years still works for me and I'm sticking with it. FOMO is real and what sidetracked me at the beginning of the year. If y'all need to start over in a totally different size, just do it, you'll be happier in the long run.
I had planner burnout so bad by the end of 2023. I don’t think I have made a CZcams video since October. I bought ALL the things for 2024 and by the time the new year rolled around I was sick of EVERY. SINGLE. THING. I’m not even into my Hobonichi Weeks this year after using it faithfully for the last 5 years.

I can be somewhat similar at times. Glad you found what works best for you!
2023 was a planner dumpster fire for me! 😂 This year is better, with only mild struggles. Thanks for keeping it real!
Haha. Glad you got that fire out! It is such a good feeling to land on what works💜
I had planner burnout but then I got my new TN system. Now I’m back to the joy of planning ❤
It’s always a nice feeling to be back on track!
I use mine as a journal in the back and planner but as of last year, I use the front as a journal and the back, I use for Bible Studies I’m in.
I keep saying I need the paper Tess planner and that will be what makes me happy 😆. I missed out on that planner

Great perspective thank you!

Hugs to you! Hoping you are able to get out of the funk soon and get back into it. Just keep it simple for now while you decompress.

I don't have a planner burnout. I just want an A5 planner that is too big to carry 😣😣😣😣
That’s a planner conundrum….it’s a different video😂 Hope you figure it out.
