You know how you get all excited about things… New (new to you) things, those “all the rage” things?
*hands up* (comment what your thing is)
Anyways…
I’ve been on this planner kick in almost any form; happy planner, Leuchturm, travelers notebooks, and basic non-ring planners. I now have several TNs and an extra fitness hp and many Leuchturms. Lets not even discuss the non planner books I have… Smashbook, sketchbooks & journals.
I’ve come to realize I cannot do it all and I need to simplify both my planning and my memory keeping. You might be asking “How?” Good question.
I feel like all my planning is just that… Planning. That I don’t get things done because I’m too busy planning. I need to get back to simplicity. My everyday cary (edc) 2018 planner is set with; a month view insert, two 3 month week on 2 pages inserts and another month insert for goal setting. This is in a B6 Wonder Woman TN from Paperflower Design Studio in Australia. I have yet figured out my journaling, which I want to get back to, either a TN or a Leuchturm.
So as much as I hate to part ways with some of my awesome books I really should. And probably some of my pens & art supplies.
Adding to this feeling of needing to simplify I want to create new habits of things I like to do and to break ones I don’t. I have been wanting to do more sketching & watercolors as well as creative writing and more reading. I’ve discovered that I need to schedule these things.
With that in mind I also bought Your Best Year 2018 that I learned about through Kara at Boho Berry. I hope that with a bit of guidance I can achieve goals I have been putting off. I want to work on my blog and website and create a cohesive online presence. I’ve been struggling with this for years and this isn’t the first I’ve talked about it.
Anyways… Back to simplifying. I will be listing many TNs this coming week, on the buy sell trade (BST) group. Most are pre loved and I’m second or third owner of. I take good care of my TNs and some have not been used at all.
I’m also having a giveaway of a classic fitness happy planner, it wasn’t my size and has never been written in. You can find that giveaway at my IG account.

Ta for now…
Maybe you can combine some things – i.e do on your blog what you’d do in some of the journals. Post watercolors and whatnot on your website and/or instagram. A friend of mine did a 100 days of watercolor challenge and posted each day’s work on Instagram.
Thank you Sue. That sounds like a good idea. I always start off good but dwindle off.
