Hi everyone. I'm rincey and this is rincey reads. So today obviously I'm doing
a little bit of a different video. I was actually planning on doing sort of like
a planner type video. For the past two vlogmases that I've done vlogmas, I've
done bullet journal related videos and a lot of you guys like love them. Like a
lot of you said that it's the first time that you had heard of bullet journaling
and since you saw those videos you try bullet journaling yourself and you
find it to be really really good for you guys in terms of organization. I'll have
links up in the cards, whichever side the cards are on, to my two bullet journaling
videos. So if you have no idea what I'm talking about, definitely go check
those out. Bullet journaling is still like the most I think organized way for
me personally, or at least that I found, to deal with tasks and everyday things.
But this year has been really, really different for me. As many of you know,
I started a new job in April of this year. And basically since that point I feel
like my life has been kind of all over the place/a mess. I've spent the
last like what is it six months, eight months trying to figure out like new
organization systems for me because my old methods weren't really working for
the way that my new job works. So I thought I would just kind of talk
through my year of planners and different planning methods and just
talking about where I'm at now. The reason why it's not a typical like walk
through my current planner is because I still feel like I don't have a great
system down. Like I'm still working at it but I kind of just wanted to share with
you guys what I'm currently doing. And then also like if you have suggestions
for me, I will happily take them. But part of it is just like figuring out what is
working for me, what I need from a planner. I feel like I'm still figuring
all of that stuff out. So this is my old bullet journal that I was using. It's the
one that was featured in my last bullet journal video. I used this one basically
through June of this year. And that was about the time I realized it just wasn't
using it the way that I used to and I needed different things from it and all
this different stuff. Like if you a look, this is the second to last page that
I have filled in and it's April 24th 25th. And then the next entry that I have
is Monday, June 19th. So that tells you how good I was doing with bullet
journaling. And look at how blank these pages are. Like this looks completely
different and so empty and clearly shows that I wasn't utilizing my bullet
journal very well. So then I started looking into different things that I
needed. And so what I was finding is that I was having a hard time with the whole
making the planner myself situation. Like I just didn't have time for it or didn't
have the energy for it. Like the one of the things I love about bullet
journaling is that it's completely customizable, you make the journal and
planner whatever you need it to be. But what I needed was for someone else to
basically make it for me. So I started looking into different ready-made
planners to figure out the best solution for me. I knew I wanted something that
provided hours in the day because one of my big things right now is that I
just have a lot of stuff scheduled on a day-to-day basis. And so I needed sort of
that hourly planner situation as well as tasks. So let me show you sort of what
I've moved on to and through over the past couple of months. So the next thing
I moved to was the day designer. And I think I made a day designer video last
year as well. And that was for like the daily one, which I didn't end up liking
because there was just so much space taken up for each day. I felt like I
wasn't utilizing it very well. Like it felt like the days were very wasteful.
There were so much stuff I didn't end up using and it was so thick because it was
a daily planner. So I looked at their weekly planners and I actually really
liked their weekly because it provided weekly time stamps. And let me show you
what these things look like on the inside. But this is what the day designer
that I got looks like on the outside and I really liked it for the most part. Okay
so this is what a monthly spread looks like. So I like, the boxes are
pretty big. They're lined. For people like me who don't know how to write straight,
it's really helpful. You have notes and to do here as well as the last month and
the next month. And then I would rip out the pages in here to make my planner
thinner after I was done using them. So I'm gonna just flip to you the last
page that I used. And let me take off the sticky note. A couple of things that I liked:
I like that they had a top three at the top. So it gave me a way to figure
out what I wanted to focus on for that day. And sometimes I would like fill
these out in advance. So I knew like Tuesday's were press day so I put that
ahead of time and I knew that I would have to
work on certain book riot things on certain days and stuff like that. So I'd
sometimes fill that out. I like the hours on here like it went from 6 a.m. but it
ended at 7 p.m. which I do not understand. Then they have a tonight section,
which again I don't understand why planners end at 7 p.m. because
definitely have things that are happening after 7 p.m.
Especially someone like me who like works until 9:00 sometimes. Like I wanted
those evening hours. So I would put in the tonight stuff and it would usually
be whatever my like to do was for that day. So here if you can read it it says
like Wednesday BR info, thumb like all that stuff. So it was like me working
on the Wednesday book riot video, and things like that. And so I would put
what I needed, tasks I needed to do that night. I didn't like that my Saturdays and
Sundays were just like this tiny section because sometimes for my weekends are
actually busier than my weekdays because I'm trying to accomplish all the tasks
that I don't have time for during the week. I wasn't crazy about the fact that
these were hourly. I like prefer like half hours. You don't sometimes utilize
the whole hour and so I would sometimes do this where I would like write on half.
This is like super cramped though as you're trying to write like half hours
stuff in. So yeah, I realized that I liked this, I didn't love it. And I also didn't
love the fact that there wasn't really a place to put a week overview of tasks I
wanted to accomplish. So I realized that it was time for me to move on to
something else and that something else was the passion planner. Okay so this is
my passion planner. I'm not going to do like a full passion planner walkthrough
because there are plenty of people on YouTube who do that. So you can
definitely look up one of those and they'll show you like a page-by-page
break down of like what the passion planner has to offer. One of the things I
really like about passion planner is that they actually give out PDFs for free.
So you, I think it's like you have to share something a link or something
about the passion planner on your social media and then they'll give you the PDFs
for free I believe is how it works. They've changed it over the year so I'm
not completely sure anymore. And then if you buy a passion planner you get all
the PDFs for free. So you can actually play with different organizational
styles and see how the passion planner works for you before you actually get it
yourself and start implementing it. So if you are a really crazy organized person
like I am then to appreciate the fact that you can practice and they have like
practice pages so you can figure out what method and style you want to
utilize in your new passion planner. So I've actually kept some of
the printouts so that way I could show you guys sort of my own process in
figuring things out. I basically took the exact same week and then just like
rewrote it over and over again to see like which a version I like better. This
is a version where I wrote it in pen and then I would try like squaring it in the
color in a specific highlighter and this is like obviously highlighting the whole
thing. This is a version where I used my colored pens -- oh sorry -- and then I would
tried like just highlighting the side. I'd see people do that. I like this but I
didn't love this version. There's this version where again I wrote in the
different colored pens and then I like squared things off but it just looked
too messy because I'm not very good at drawing straight lines. And then this is the
version that I kind of basically ended up going down to where I wrote
everything in black pen and then I would use highlighters to highlight things. And
as you can see here, I was still testing out the square thing to see if I liked it.
But this was basically the version I ended up going with is like completely
highlighting the whole thing based on like what category of thing I was doing
during that time of day. Yeah I know this sounds crazy. I realize how crazy this
sounds. Oh and I also tried it out in colored pencil to see if I liked it
better in highlighter or colored pencil. I do like how it looks in colored pencil
but I ended up just liking highlighters better. Okay so now I'm gonna take
you inside my passion planner. I'm gonna show you one of my really organized
weeks. And then I'm going to show you what my life has been like recently.
Okay so here's basically one of my slightly more organized weeks. Generally
what I do is I write in the things that I know will be happening in advance.
So like worship team practice like I know that in advanced when those things are
happening. I had like certain calls and meetings so
I knew those would be happening ahead of time, like phone calls things like that.
So I would schedule those in when I knew that they were happening. Church, like I
always know what time church is at, things like that. Down at the bottom they have
personal to-do lists and work to-do lists.
So I would use this as like more like book riot as well as some work things.
But at work we use todoist, which is like an online/phone, tablet type
app. So I basically use that as my work to-do list because I have to anyway. So I
might as well just use it for all my work things. But I do write down some
tasks here, especially if I have specific thing that I need to like schedule in or
things I just want to make sure I remember once I leave work. But yeah,
I would always just use it like this. And then this was great because it has like
the focus at the top of the day. So if there's something specific
I need to make sure I do during that day, I can write it up top. But yeah this has
basically been the best version of planning for me because a lot of my
planning these days, or a lot of my tasks these days are repeating tasks.
So I always have to work on book riot videos and I always have to make sure I
have a video up for my channel. And I always have the podcast like twice a
month. Most of what I'm trying to figure out is when I'm going to do all of those
things. I don't necessarily need to remember to do them. It's more like I
need to figure out when in the day I'm going to actually get that stuff done.
So this has been such a lifesaver for me. But, I mean, I'm going to show you like
this most recent past week and you'll see like I haven't been using it
perfectly. This is by the way what a month spread looks like which I really
like because you can have like personal and work priorities for the month, as
well as they have like people to see places to go not to-do list. You can kind
of utilize those boxes however you want and they always have blank spaces so you
can write things in however you'd like. So this is what this past week looks
like. And this is sort of how things have been going lately. Like it's been half
filled in, half not. It kind of just depends on how my days are going and
especially at work it varies so much. So sometimes I just don't even fill these
this part out, sometimes I just write random to do is over here. but these are
like my specific weekend to dos. These days weren't filled out at all because I
was traveling for work so I had no reason to need to schedule things.
And this is what this current week looks like so you get a view of like what I do
with my planner before I sort of start my day. So I always put in like church,
I have to record Read or Dead this Tuesday, I have worship team practice and then I have
a graduation party on Friday. So I put all of that stuff in. Today is Sunday
when I'm recording this. So what I'm going to do is I'm going to sort of fill
out how things have been going and sort of plan for the rest of the night. And
then, every morning, I open up my planner and I sort of like plan my day. And I'll,
when I'm planning and I don't know for sure what's going on, I'll usually
write things in pencil and then later I'll go back in erase them and fill them
out with what I actually did. And then at the end of the day, if I remember, as you
can see I don't always do this, I'll go back in and I'll highlight according to
my plan. And I kind of like highlighting it just so that way I can see how I'm
utilizing my day or how I'm not utilizing my days. It lets me see sort of
like what my priorities were that week in terms of what I actually did as
opposed to what I say my priorities are. And as you can see, like I haven't filled
out my personal and work to do is for the week. I don't know if I will. We'll
see what happens. It's been working for the most part. Like the main problem I
just have right now is just I want to do sort of like the bullet journal thing in
here which I'm kind of doing but I don't know. There's like just little things
that I need to tweak and play around with to see what works for me.
But honestly right now, what I need right now is like a time management system more
than like a todoist system. So this is why passion planner is working for me
right now. I've basically combined passion planner with like bullet
journaling ideas. So it like works well for me. But yeah, that's basically all I
have. I know that this was a little bit all over the place. Feel free to leave a
comment down below letting me know if you use a passion planner or if you're
still a bullet journaling or whatever or if you have any questions on my method.
I know I went through this relatively quickly. But like I said, everything's
been sort of up in the air and like in flux right now so I don't have like a
really hard steady sort of method that I can walk you guys through because I feel
like I'm still sort of figuring things out. So yeah, again, leave any comments or
questions that you have down below. If you have any suggestions for me, I will
happily take those like I said in the beginning. But yeah that's all I have for
now and thanks for watching.
