This is the MOST ORGANIZED you’ll be for the hol This is the MOST ORGANIZED you’ll be for the holidays! 🎁  The Notion Christmas Planner helps you keep track of: 🗓️ Holiday activities and events (including the ones you host with a special hosting template!) 🗓️ Menu planning and recipes 🗓️ Gifts (of course!) 🗓️ Christmas cards 🗓️ Holiday decor 🗓️ Tasks 🗓️ Your budget for all your holiday purchases But the best part? You can keep track of gifts and spending from year to year! So you’ll always know what you bought grandma five years in a row (and how much you spent on her.) Drop “Notion Christmas” in the comments and I’ll shoot a link to your DM’s. I can’t wait for you to stay on top of everything this year! Let me know if there are any other parts of the planner you want to see and I’ll share them on Stories. 😊 #notiontemplate #christmasplanner #holidayplanner #gifttracking #christmasplannersetup

It’s no secret… …that I’ve tried almost e It’s no secret… …that I’ve tried almost every TYPE of planner out there! Here’s a look back at my “planning eras” ⤵️ 📔 TRADITIONAL PLANNER ERA: I started with simple @blueskyplanners during high school and upgraded to @thedaydesigner when I started blogging. 📔 BULLET JOURNAL ERA: I bullet journaled for about three years before writing a book about it (Brainbook) and then a few more years before moving toward a less time-intensive method. 📔 DISCBOUND PLANNING ERA: This notebook let me customize my own planner using printable planner inserts! I started designing planner pages for others and opened up @brainbooklibrary for those who wanted the entire collection. Meanwhile, I began dabbling in digital tools alongside my paper planner. 📔 NOTION ERA: Frustrated that I was using ALL THE TOOLS—a paper planner, Trello, Todoist, Google Calendar, Evernote, and Slack—I combined all the features of these tools by moving entirely into @notionhq. But paper kept calling me back so now I take a hybrid approach! ——————- → Google Calendar helps me future plan and time block my days → Notion organizes every part of my life and business → A blank notebook holds my daily task list and random notes/brain dumps (I call it bullet journal lite). ——————- It’s taken me a while to get to this point and find my groove, but this triple-tool method has finally given me planner peace. …or has it? 👉🏻 Follow to see how I switch it up in 2024! 💬 Since I’ve used so many planning tools in the past, I’m happy to answer any questions about how to choose what method might be best for you! . . . #plannerpeace #planningiskey #bulletjournals #discboundbujo #planneraddict #bulletjournalcommunity #plannercommunity #wildforplanners #bulletjournallove #discboundplanner #frankenplanner #frankenplanning #bulletjournaljunkies
BE HONEST ⤵️ How many tasks do you have in va BE HONEST ⤵️ How many tasks do you have in various notebooks, apps, and sticky notes right now? 🫣 I used to be that person… until I found Notion. Notion is the only tool that contains and organizes ALL my tasks (even future ones that I’m not even sure I’ll do yet!) in a way that makes sense for my brain. But I still love working from a paper list! So I use a system that gives me the best of both worlds: 1️⃣ Notion for my Master Task List 2️⃣ A blank notebook for my Daily Task List (pulled from Notion based on due dates, energy, and priority levels.) DM me the word “NOTIONTASKS” if you want to grab my free Master Task List Notion template! #notiontemplate #notionapp #productivitytips #plannernerd
CONTROVERSIAL OPINION ⤵️ Monday is the best d CONTROVERSIAL OPINION ⤵️ Monday is the best day of the week. 𝘐𝘧 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘢𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘦, 𝘴𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘧𝘢𝘷𝘰𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘦 𝘲𝘶𝘰𝘵𝘦 (👆🏻) 𝘴𝘰 𝘸𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘴𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘔𝘰𝘯𝘥𝘢𝘺 𝘭𝘰𝘷𝘦!

HERE ⤵️ At first, I liked this phrase. I hea HERE ⤵️ At first, I liked this phrase. I heard it listening to Matthew McConaughey’s book, Greenlights and nodded my head as he shared a string of wise sayings. Then, I wasn’t so sure. I mean, what’s so bad about working hard throughout the week so you can feel good about taking a break? 🙅‍♀️ Nothing. 🙅‍♀️ But EARNING rest? That verb changes the dynamic. If you identity as a type-A go-getter, then you’re used to striving for others approval just as much as your own. And when you view productive days as good and non-productive days as bad, then the whole concept of “earning” rest is just another performance-based measuring stick we use to define our worth. 👉🏼In case you need a reminder, you can work hard and rest hard without one requiring the other, and without either reflecting your value as a person. How does the phrase “Earn your Saturday’s” make you feel? #typeapersonality #gogetters #goalsetter #productivityboost #selfcaredaily
