I’m trying to be more organized so I bought the simplified planner yesterday at target. I went to start writing things down in it and I’m confused. This can’t be right?
Here is a video of it jumping from August back to June?

hi yall! as the caption states -- need some help from my adhd pals. I have been super hyperfixated (go figure) on finding a planner to start using. I know the best one for ADHD is one that I will use -- and need to just go with it. I love a smaller planner (i write tiny which is helpful) for the compactfullness and ease of bringing it places. I also am a big list/to do list person. i recently tried the trending index box and enjoyed the concept and cards and such, but did not like the bulkyness of the box and bringing it places. i need to be able to bring it with my easily, or it will sit on my desk and i won't use it. anyone have any recs? Prefer an A5/A6...ideally something with the option to be undated (ADHD lol) so that if I forget a few days or a week or two, I don't feel like there's wasted real estate.
Thanks yall!
- I'm homeschooled, so I dont need a lot of room for school stuff
- I do community theater (back stage work) almost every fall and spring
- I dont have a job atm, but I plan on getting one in 2027
- I'd like it to be relatively simple so I can decorate it myself
- Portability is very important to me
- Places for habit/mood trackers included
- Can handle a lot of ink
- Monthly calendar pages
- There doesn't need to be a ton of writing room in wrekly/daily spreads and I'd prefer if they were lined
Please help a girl out! I tried bullet journaling this year and last year, but drawing everything out every month got to be too overwhelming for me.
Hallo, ich habe mir den Leuchtturm1917-Wochenplaner gekauft und habe keinen Plan, wofür ich den Projektplan verwenden kann, da ich keine Projekte habe bzw. keinen Plan für dessen Verwendung habe.
Hey everyone!
I just started grad school. And I’m a very type B person. I’ve never had an actual calendar and I’m not even sure which is the way to set one up. Any recommendations? I got an actual planner but it’s not big enough to fit in everything. It’s mostly for big events. Please help!
Thank y’all!
I currently use the weekly pocket moleskin I love the layout it’s perfect but I want something slightly smaller. Vertical week all on one page is a must. I want to keep using this as my cover but hating that the planner doesn’t fit inside
I'm still pretty new to creating Notion templates, so this is honestly my first little Marketplace achievement. I never even thought about rankings before this, which made seeing #33 such a nice surprise. 🥺
A month ago I shared V2 here after rebuilding the template from scratch based on feedback from this community.
Since then:
→ 120+ downloads
→ 380+ views
→ now #33 in Personal Home
The template is intentionally lightweight and focuses on the boring-but-important parts of life 🚀:
→ Bills & subscriptions
→ Important documents
→ Health records
→ Home maintenance
→ Personal tasks
It's been really cool seeing something I originally built for myself actually get used by other people.
Just wanted to share the little win with the community that helped me improve it. ❤️
Free template for anyone who wants to try it:

Hi, I got a planner. It's not very detailed about the days and stuff, but it has a calendar and the days of the year to help with organization. But what do you usually write in yours? I already have a small notebook to write down my daily tasks, in another I write down goals, and in this one, I don't have anything to write in. Can you give me any suggestions?

Hello all! I start classes this month and my new job the first week of September but I have no planner to take me through to the end of the year and I need some recommendations that won’t break the bank, that are still available, and don’t feel too wasteful considering 2027 is only months away (looking for around $35 or less).
What I’m looking for:
A weekly spread of sorts that has enough space for me to write in due dates for assignments and priority tasks for work. (My writing is small enough that I had no issues with the day free).
Daily pages are not necessary but I’m willing to try it since I do journal on occasion
Blank pages in the back or a blank space in the weeks layout for lists.
Ideally an academic planner since it’s August and I am a teacher when I’m not in school. But I’m also in a pinch so I’ll take whatever.
Something that will fit in a medium purse.
I don’t really habit track and I don’t like wasting too much space in a planner but again, I’ll take whatever is available and affordable

I’ve been using the hobonichi days free this year because I was unemployed for a chunk of time and only needed to worry about my personal schedule. It was my first hobonichi and I love it but there is nowhere near enough pages for it to suffice once school starts.
I thought about the spring start techo but it doesn’t take me through to the end of the academic year (June), and it also appears to be unavailable everywhere. Despite this, I am willing to get a spring start weeks but I can’t find them anywhere but eBay and I just don’t trust eBay or PayPal and jetpens has been my only source since I started, and they’re sold out.
Open to any and all recommendations or solutions, hobonichi or otherwise. Thank you so much and sorry for the long post!
I got a binder planner from STIL a couple of months ago as a gift from a friend, and I really want to get into using it more, but I honestly don’t know how or where to start!
I’m a paralegal at a corporate law firm, so for work I currently use Microsoft To Do for my task list. For my personal life, I mainly use Google Calendar.
For those of you who use planners, how do you actually utilize them day-to-day? What do you keep in your planner versus your digital apps? I’d love to hear how you guys use yours and get some ideas!
I have recently become a big fan of Discbound notebooks and have made my regular planner from one. Levanter sent me a Discbound extra that I didn’t need so I thought about making it into a commonplace as it has lined pages and I can add or delete. Ae there any tips for using a commonplace Discbound? Any pros or cons?
I really like using an Alettone cover for my A6, because it keeps all my supplies secure, and it feels less bulky than the butterfly closure ones. I don’t see a lot of other folks mentioning them in the 2027 posts here, and was wondering if there was an aspect I was missing?
Hello everyone,
Almost two years since reading David Goggins book "Can't Hurt Me" I've decided to make one more attempt to change something in my life. I've tried lots and lots of different applications for tracking habits, but most of them require to have a phone and there are almost no applications for desktop or even web. Especially it become a problem when you try to avoid your phone as much as possible but you need to enter your habits.
One day opened Number (Excel alternative by Apple) and decided to make my own tracker. For me it's very important to not only track "boolean" habits like done or not but also some metrics such as: when I go to bed, wake-up time, number of calories eaten.
Basically instead of marking "slept 8hr" with done or not done I actually track my wake-up and bed time. Same for steps.
I have a bunch of formatting rules for each habit, for done/undone I use green and red. Gray means that I skipped this day for some reason.
After few month of tracking I realized that I'm not skipping tracking my habits. And here is why:
So this is my habit tracking system, I've attached older screenshot from previous year with some fake data because I'm not fully comfortable to share my current metrics right now, but the system itself didn't change at all.
I also building an application based on this approach for myself so I don't need to have a files so maybe somewhere in the future I will share with you.
After using this spreadsheet for year and a half I decided to finally build my own app which works in browser and ios - https://habitpocket.io/
UPDATE: Thanks so much for all the helpful replies! I managed to get approved to join the FC Facebook group and got the latest news.
She’s planning to release more 2027 planners at the end of September and then again in late October/early November.
Only the preorders come bundled with a pencil board and planner tabs, but she’s going to put up what she has left of each of these as separate listing for purchase in late September, too.
In the meantime, I’ve seen a few people post their preordered planners for sale - not a lot, but a few.
It’s definitely worth joining the Faded Chronicle Facebook group if you’re interested in their 2027 planners!
Hiya, planner friends! I don’t know how I missed it, but I just discovered that the Faded Chronicle A5 setup is exactly what I’ve been looking for in a planner for next year. I want one so much.
Alas, the preorder’s all sold out. Does anyone know how likely it is that I’ll be able to get my hands on one once they’ve finished shipping what’s already been ordered? Also, any sense of the timeline for ordering as part of that second round? I just want to make sure I don’t miss the remaining ones when they’re released.
All insights, including from last year, would be much appreciated!
Guys please help me find a dupe/ cheaper planner for the aura Estelle that I can order to deliver in the UK. For me to get a aura Estelle it would cost £60 and I don’t know that I am that committed to a planner.
What I particularly like about the planners are these pages. Maybe the one where at the start of the week there’s a week page followed by singular day pages.
I currently have the kinbor weeks but it does not work for what I need. And I order the kinbor techno and it would do the job but it is not the best set up.
Or would you recommend waiting until we start 2027 so the planners would be cheaper in the Aura Estelle website??? I don’t actually know.
I have added images of the pages that has me most interested in.
I love Cloth and Paper products, but their strategy with releases and marketing via Reddit does not work.
There are so many rules that it is not truly a community forum, every single post requires moderator approval. It’s so strict!! Goes to show that Reddit is not meant to be a marketing channel.
Would love to hear your opinion on this but I don’t understand why so many planner companies mainly use spiral bound planners. Softbounds are so much better but companies rarely offer them. Coils are so annoying to use when u start writing close to them! As a right handed person, one entire side of my planner is now hard to use bc my hand bumps into the coil when im trying to write.
Does anyone know a planner with this layout? I can't find anymore and now I dislike any other.
Need some help. I have a wonderful symptom journal but it’s only 1 month at a time. I don’t want 12 books to carry to the doctor with me. I’m looking for a symptom/medicine journal that is at least a year. I’m not looking so much for a habit journal, I want a symptom journal, medication journal. Possible food journal but more of a food vs trigger journal. What hurts, when does it hurt (time in the day), what did you take to relieve it, did it help, how do you feel overall today, what is the weather and how does it affect your pain/health, water intake, sleep, etc.
I can’t find anything with all these things or even close that is longer than a month or 6 weeks. I really don’t want to make my own however I’m not opposed to it. I do have stencils but that is just too much work. I’ve looked at stamps and that might be an option but I’d much rather have one already made or at least mostly made.
I’m fine with just having this separate from my regular planner.
Thank you in advance for any ideas. I’m desperate at this point. I have lupus and RA and I’m having to track many things and it’s almost impossible unless I get it all in one book.
Hello,
This may be an unpopular opinion and that’s ok!!! I’m not judging the people who like the extras and find them useful.
I am looking to vent but that doesn’t mean I don’t love that you love them. I just don’t love them for me and can’t seem to find a way to escape them. It’s why I used to like EC but EC is done.
I love that a lot of you use your planners as journals too. It’s just not for me. I am more interested in utility than whole of life.
I need a daily planner with a full page for each day but I do not need or want:
-Gratitude (Research shows that writing 1 to 2 times a week works better than daily entries and I don’t want my gratitude journal combined with my work schedule, academics, etc)
-any tracking
-goal setting
-reflecting
-fancy fonts and colours
I just want a day per page broken down by hours and space to write my to-do list, notes anything… whatever anyone wants.
I struggle because I need a bit bigger, A5 is challenging for me to see.
Basically I want the EC daily duo lay out with the ability to customize a bit
For me, including the rest is just too much. I wish I could be like a lot of you, it seems so fun, but I’m not.
