@@CindyGuentertBaldo I'm sure if I find the right one it will magically do all the things for me when I write them down. Like write down goals wake up fit, healthy, rich... there has to be a planner like that somewhere right?
The perforation is probably meant for ring binder planners, kind of brilliant. I'm really uncomfortable with Faith-based businesses but I bought a Powersheets this year anyway because I didn't need a planner and both systems were similar to the system I developed on my own. Now Maskelife has The Thing! The Thing I Really Wanted! Looking forward to moving to Maskelife from EC and PS next year.
I have recently found your channel and I seriously adore you! I laugh out loud at least 2-3 times every video! You’ve got great goal and planner content and I seriously love your humor!
A few ideas: You could bullet journal or draw a weekly layout on the weekly dot grid. I think they are perforated so you can take them out, punch them, and put them on your rings or discs, or tip them in your bujo. These were great design choices. 😊
I started wanting a goal setting planner last year after seeing videos about Power Sheets and MakseLife planners. I couldn’t bring myself to buy another planner though since I had a system that worked for me. I have awful anxiety and my current planner setup works so well for me. So, when these came out in November, I had to buy it. I *love* this system. Love it to the point I’m questioning if I might switch to them for 2022. Two weeks in and I’m considering that already. I love the perforated paper. Did one pen/highlighter test and now I can just move that from book to book. Seriously love it. 💜
This is *exactly* what I want in a goal planner. In “normal” times (if I even remember what that once meant), I travel for extended periods of time and am gone more than I’m home. It would be a lot easier to travel with 1 or 2 of these little booklets than with the bulky PowerSheets planner. I haven’t purchased these (yet) because a) I bought my first-ever PowerSheets right before I learned that these exist and didn’t want to drop another $50 on a second goal planner and b) I wanted to use them at the start of 2021, not a third of the way through the first quarter. However, it seems that 2020 is determined leave a big long skidmark over the first few weeks of 2021 so I might be ready for a New Years do-over in February!
Ohhhh the strength to not scream about companies who don’t listen.... lol. I’m hoping Makse keeps going with what she’s doing-and keep listening to her customers. They are so into something!
I like this...the Powersheets prep work is awesome for helping you figure out what your goals really are, but I feel they drop the ball when it comes time to actually map out all the steps you'll need to do to achieve the goal. This, with its 5 weekly spreads for you to put your action steps and carry them out throughout the year, seems way better in that regard.
I used the free printables from the website for my goal planning this year. I'm LOVING these notesbooks! I may have to buy them, like, right now. Just don't tell my husband. 🤫 I've been flipping between planners this past year, I blame COVID. I do like having a separate notebook for the goals so it's always there, no matter what!
YESSSSSS! I have been waiting to watch a review on these! These are perfect for those of us that don’t want to be about the multi-planner life or who only need to goal set for season.
This is brilliant! I wish Powersheets would do something like this, I only really use the prep work, monthly pages don’t work with my overall planner system so they end up neglected.
Thanks for the review. I agree, the pen test is not really the issue in a goal planner. I am looking at them now because they are on sale for $30 right now! I have not used this brand so I thought I would give it a try as part of my Traveler's Notebook. Thanks again!
Oh! I like this! I am horrible at using Powersheets. I like that it’s undated, so if I miss a month, or a few months, I can just jump back in and use the next month. And it’s a full year, unlike the undated powersheets. I like that Mäksēlife has reflections for each week. I might get these instead of PS this year.
Thanks for this video. I was on the fence since I already have a planner. But you convinced me. I liked the format too but didn't want a whole new planner. Just ordered it.
Just bought some of these. Thank you for sharing! They’ll go perfect inside the cover housing my Cousin Avec. Now I just need to figure out what I’m going to do with my 2021 Powersheets. 😑
I love the idea of these because the Powersheets are a chonk, especially if you're using a different planner. But it's also just 2021 and I am still at a real One Day At A Time place. Who knows, maybe I can scoop them up at a discount starting Q2.
Those are definitely tempting for me - I think I would use the perforated pages and post each week's weekly actions somewhere where I can see it when I set up each day in my bullet journal...
Tried to get into power sheets and wasn't a fan (repetitive from year to year, aesthetics, etc) but I got these companion notebooks this year to use alongside my GoldenCoil planner and I am loving it. My goal planning made so much more sense to me and I am having a lot of success with follow-through. Highly recommend :)
I wanted to try this system instead of PS this year because I already know in general what my goals are for the year and need daily accountability more than the prep work, but reeeeallly didn't want to get the whole planner (wire-O, hiss) so I was thrilled to see the separate notebooks. Yeah, they are a little pricey, but if it works it will have been a good investment.
I love the colors, but it’s too expensive for me. I think I would be ok with buying one at a time. I’m definitely going to check out the free printable. Thanks for pinning that comment!
Ooh, I'm liking these a lot! I especially like that they're quarterly, I just always feel weirdly intimidated by yearly project setups... I used to use a yearly planner back in like highschool, but after that I've more often than not switched layout or size halfway through the year (one set-up for the fall semester and one for spring, basically). I would genuinely get these if it weren't for the whole living-in-Sweden thing - non-EU purchases come with an additional 25% VAT and $9-ish post office handling fee, so $50 would end up at around $72 - plus international shipping, I'm assumingand - and honestly I don't care how good the quality is I do not have that kind of cash 😬 They do look really nice though... Just not, you know, quite THAT nice....
I bought the Powersheet and I regret buying it. I thought I was going to love it, It’s too much for me. Makselife companion looks like a simpler goal setting system. Thanks for your videos.
I was debating hard-core because of the same issue. So, I tried the free printouts that Makselife has on the website. I have to say that I really like the simplicity of it. The Powersheets seemed like too much.
@@CindyGuentertBaldo I do remember hearing about how they kept changing things up in the private FB group I started out in. I never got into them, but my friends who used them were constantly frustrated by the changes.
I'm thinking about making big changes to my planner systems for next year and I am seriously considering these notebooks. I have been using PowerSheets with an hourly EC Life Planner (which I bought before Plannergeddon and am using to get my money's worth). While I love the PowerSheets, the price this year from Canada with the exchange rate, shipping and extra customs charge is making me rethink that purchase in future. I'm trying to rethink what I need in a planner system, and I'm started to be really attracted to the Hobonichi Cousin. If I still think I can fit into a just weekly planner, I might get the regular Mäkse Life planner, but if I go for something that includes dailies, I think these notebooks could make a really good companion.
I just wish Makselife released these in an A5 unpunched insert. I'm debating between getting these and trying to get them cut and put on a coil or just paying for higher quality prints of the freebie printables. I want these, but I want everything in one book... preferably on a coil so I can use my EC covers.
I’ve got the planner and really like it, but I’ve been recommending these notebooks to friends who are intrigued but have other planning systems that work well for them.
I franken planned my own lol using a midori b6 slim calendar - i normally hate lined paper but the midori splits the spread into 8 sections so perfect for you to write each area of life and it has enough sheets to break it into 52 weeks plus 3 quarterly review pages if you wanted to update the goal and then it has blank pages in the back for you. You’d just have to print out the assessments and also questions to fill out in your other planner tho or use a blank page in the back
I literally said… “please stop doing that” right when you said “I probably just pissed some people off” 😂. Thanks for the video I’m trying to find the right goal setting system for me
I totally need Q&A )) I can't understand is "situation" some inside joke or it's my english is not enough to get why you use it like this )) but I like it!
Could you review any of the million Tombow dual brush pen knock-off sets on Amazon?? I have the TOOLI-ART 36 dual tip brush pen set coming from Amazon. 36 brush pens for $20! And they come in a spiffy looking case that would probably retail for around the same--at least $15. The fine tip is more of a fineliner than the Tombow's more 'bullet' tip, but that actually suits my purposes just fine. It means I don't have to go digging for my Staedtler Triplus fineliners all the dang time. I wanted to try brush lettering and had a gift card. Rainbow pen sets are my go to for cheering myself up and something I almost only indulge in when I have a gift card. :D

"why are they perforated... actually I'm gonna tear this out and put it in my planner" 🤣
That's why I thought they were perforated for. I would totally paste them into my planners so that I would never forget that I have a second notebook

This is cool!!!
Thanks for saving me $50!
Why are these pages perforated you ask, then rip a page out to stick in another planner. Yes, yes that's why they're perforated.
Your closed caption is so messed up. 😱
I am still waiting....
I saw a post on the FB group that they have cleared customs and should be arriving at the warehouse in the next few days for packing up and mailing.
i wonder if these notebooks or the content planner will arrive first? (as I've seen several people mention that one). I hope you get them soon!
