I'd been wanting to share some of my perspectives on structuring life in support of productivity and creativity, but it's been a January. (Are we officially saying that now?) And now that it's February, I can happily say I've found a bit of a groove.In this episode I share my 2025 goals, routines, planning approach, and thoughts on how we (both I and you) can get things done. I don't claim to have it all figured out, but I can say that understanding my strengths and preferences helped me start building new systems that work even better.I can't wait to hear your thoughts and curiosities after you listen. The comments are open for further discussion! I'd particularly love to know if you are also using multiple planners.Links MentionedA6 Hobonichi Techo Original English (*)A5 Sterling Ink Compact Common PlannerA5 Wonderland222 All-in-One UnstackedSimple Scrapper Membership💬 Visit simplescrapper.com/syw291 to comment on this episode.🧐 Get the Focus Finder tool at simplescrapper.com/focus
