    ABOUT ME:
    I'm a fifty-something mom of two girls. I've loved planners, paper, and getting things done forever. I love Filofax, Hobonichi, Franklin Covey, Jibun Techo, Bullet Journaling in a Stalogy or Leuttchturm... all the planners! My favorite season used to be Back to School: notebooks, pens, paper, oh my! Join me as I share my journey through the world of planning.
    When I'm not playing in planners, I work full-time as a director of product marketing/management in the software industry and enjoy my free time with my husband, daughters, and pets and adventuring in the mountains around me.

    Thanks for the overview! I have an A5 on order and have no idea what I'm doing, but you've given me some great uses to try out. Also, love the "Surely not everyone was kung fu fighting" sticker. 😀

      I’m glad the video was helpful! I love the Jibun Techo line. And that sticker is so cute, isn’t it? 😆

    Thanks for this, mine is on its way to me and I’m so excited, transitioning from a Hobo Cousin to this book plus the Idea, I’m also in my 50s and just need to free myself from so much journaling commitment! Hoping to create more of a memory keeping/household data archive with this system.

    I wish I had seen this vid before ordering the A5 Slim. Just received it today and am slightly disappointed that the Weekly columns are only a few squares wider than the B6 Slim. I was hoping for a bit more room. So now I have both and not sure which to use! Such an amazingly comprehensive planner 😍

      I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I would suggest trying them both - even if you just photocopy a couple weeks and play around on paper with them. I am using the B6 this year and am finding I feel cramped where I hadn't before. Maybe because I'm used to the A5 from last year? I'm seriously considering going back to the A5 since it's a spring edition and I could use it from now until April. Decisions, decisions!! Let me know what you decide to do!

    Enjoyed your video! I’m in a Wonderland 222 B6 for 2024, which I have no complaints, but always interested in other options (I get bored). I’m 56, last child is a junior in college across the country so empty nester as well & retired - not much happening, but will always buy a planner. Subscribed to your channel ✅.

      Welcome! So glad you're here. I tried the Wonderland planner (I think I've tried them all) but I missed not having the weekly "to do" column and putting it at the bottom messed with my brain. LOL Thanks for stopping by and subscribing.

    I love the Jibun Techo! I found it in 2021 & have been using it since. I’m also trying the Hobonichi Cousin A5 Hon. I tried the Cousin a few years ago & the Daily pages overwhelmed me. But I wanted to try it again. But I think Jibun will continue to be my #1.

    • @ThoughtsAlongLifesHighway
      @ThoughtsAlongLifesHighway  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I agree that the daily pages in the Hobonichi is overwhelming! I love the planner but I just get stuck sometimes and feel like I can never catch up.

    Nice! At least I'm not the only one that keeps buying it every year no matter how many weeks I used my previous year's one 😅❤ I love it so much! But I haven't concluded on which size and inside color I prefer.... 🤔

    • @ThoughtsAlongLifesHighway
      @ThoughtsAlongLifesHighway  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I have used the B6 mostly, but I have to say I've really enjoyed the A5 this year. It's not that much bigger if I want to carry it around and it feels roomier to write in. The insides - I'm all about that MIO paper!! I'm a Biz girl forever.

    Just watching now, in April, and thank you for sharing! I'm driving myself self crazy and planner hopping from the Weeks to this one, the JT A5slim.... hoping it will help me be more productive with the daily timeline - kinda wish it had more grid pages in the back, but will supplement with the Idea books

    • @ThoughtsAlongLifesHighway
      @ThoughtsAlongLifesHighway  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The Jibun Techo are really great planners. Packed full of well thought out things. I love adding an idea book to give the free-from space I need for notes. Hope it works well for you!

  • @jennywilder2962
    @jennywilder2962 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Really helpful, thanks! I used B6 DAYS and thought the grid was a little small. But I really liked the paper compared to Tomoe River paper. I just bought an A5 weekly version, so this video is timely.

    @stationery.shenanigans 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Great video and explanation! I had the same beige on in B6 slim for 2022, I think I want to go for the A5 slim in 2024.

      I’m seriously torn between the two sizes!

    I’ve wanted to try Jibun Techo for a few years, but never have!!!

  • @rosanguyen7062
    @rosanguyen7062 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Tried it twice, in both sizes - no luck for me. I'm trying out Nolty Planners this year that has a similar layout, but the vertical time strip is minimalist like Sterling Ink's. Hoping I can stay in it longer than my other planners this year (1.5 - 2 months was the trend).

    • @ThoughtsAlongLifesHighway
      @ThoughtsAlongLifesHighway  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Maybe the vertical layout isn’t what you need? Have you tried other layouts?

  • @yvettecasey-hunter1504
    @yvettecasey-hunter1504 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Just curious. Do you like the Jibun Days version of their techno? Secondly, why do you prefer the Jibun Techo to the Hobonichi Cousin?

    • @ThoughtsAlongLifesHighway
      @ThoughtsAlongLifesHighway  2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I found the layout of the Jibun Days messed with my brain. The center column with the timeline just didn’t work for me. I know other people love it. I like the Jibun Techo for a few reasons - the Biz (Mio) paper is great, I love the well thought out pages in the front - less for me to set up manually, and I love not having to deal with the daily pages in the Hobo Cousin - It just felt like too much for me. Hope this helps
