I dont know what I would do without you! Thanks! I want both but I think that would be too much! I should start with Makse, I think I will get the new ones without planner and maybe the 6 moths power sheets!
Your voice gives me peace. Lol since I have nowhere to go.. I’ve been using my daily day agenda to write down my short to dos but mainly to write down the things I’ve actually done. As I’m doing them. It’s helping me keep control of my mind so I don’t feel like I’ve done nothing and fall into a depressed state or get cabin fever.
Thank you:) And that is such a good idea for those that are stuck at home and very far from their normal routines. Thank you for sharing:) Keep it up! Journaling has helped me a lot through this time too.
You are great at explaining the things that really matter. Definitively tempted with both of them. Both look great. I am considering one of them for next year but don't know which. Love the colors in one and the details in the other. I will watch your link videos to make my final decision. Thank you so much for your hard work.
Aw, Maria Thank you! You made my day with your kind comment. I know it is a hard decision! I have them both in my hands....have used both...and can't decide:) LOL. If you have a planner you already love and don't want to switch I would go with PowerSheets. If you are open to using the MäksēLife planner than that is a very hard choice;) You can't go wrong though...I think you will love either one;)
I’m having a difficult time keeping up with my Power Sheets. Most of the prep work was good, but I find the monthly reflections to be rather burdensome.
Thanks for sharing that. I find the monthly reflection page in PowerSheets takes less time than the one page monthly reflection in Mäksēlife. If the Tending List and monthly pages aren't working for you maybe it's just not the right system for you in this season of your life? I bet as the year progresses you will figure out if it is really one you want to stick with or not;) Stay well!
Have you reviewed the Mäksēlife quarterly notebooks? I've been thinking about using that with my planner. I'm not interested in getting the planner, since I like using an academic planner. I've tried to use powersheets for 4 years, and I just can't seem to make it work for me. I do the prepwork and I start a few months, and then I forget about it until the next month comes around. The weekly reflections in makse appeals to me.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the ML Companion notebooks Angela. I have reviewed those but only in an IGTV...I will include them in my 2022 Makselife Planners review video when that comes out in November. Here is the IGTV link to that review for now: instagram.com/tv/CLZvwjGJ440/ Hope that helps;)
I don't know specifically for online teachers as I have never had experience with that myself. My favorite Teacher Planner is Erin Condren and Simplified has a great one too. Both will be coming out with new Teacher planners soon;) I hope that helps some. I do have a Teacher Planner Playlist with both of those and a few others too. Have a good weekend and stay well!
Hi Kat:) You will have to check their websites for current pricing. Powersheets yearly is sold out- until they re-launch in the fall (usually October)...There might be some Makselife left and be on sale until their launch in the fall. I have linked both their websites in the video description so you can go check out what they have right now in stock. Thanks for watching;)

That would be a good combination to give both a try;) Thanks for taking time to chat and share:)

I am really liking MakseLife and would never have looked at it until I watched this video, thanks Amanda
Oh, good! I love the MakseLife Planner and I love the owner Sierra too. She is making some little tweaks to make it even better for 2021!
Absolutely love that MakseLife has a habit tracker. I wish more offered that option:) thanks for the great comparison video XO.
I agree! Every weekly planner should have a habit tracker IMO:)
Great compare and contrast!
Thank you:) I am glad it was helpful.
Super helpful, Amanda! Thank you!
So happy to hear that it helped:)
Can you do an updated video for this? They’ve both changed so much and I can’t decide !!
I hear ya! I will put it on my ideas list for next year;) Thanks for letting me know that it would be helpful!
Yes, I will like that too
Makselife team:if you read this please offer shipping outside of the USA for 2021!! thank you!
Fingers crossed for you! I know it's hard for small companies starting right off to do that;)

Amanda's Favorites Thanks for the additional perspective. I really like the tending list; I’m thinking of foregoing some of the reflection questions.
I never hesitate to just use a planner the way it works for me....I have left out pages like that before myself;)
Thank you so much for side by side comparison. Very helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome awesome comparison Amanda! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Jen:)
Has anyone succeeded in using both at once? I've already got my lavender Powersheets but very tempted for the Makse launch next week!!
And I love that Powersheets cover! Wish they would bring that one back!
I have heard of people using both at once...but I can't remember who it was or where I heard it over the years.

Love your videos, what is a good planner for an online teacher?

Amanda’s, do you feel the same way about these planners now (Oct 2021)
The big basic feelings I shared here about each I feel still hold true for me:)
Its a shame they don't sell on amazon. Its easier for those outside US to buy on amazon.
I understand being outside the US makes it so hard and expensive to get these planners:( I am sorry!
How much they costs?
