PAPER planning versus DIGITAL planning & things to consider before switching + FREE DIGITAL PLANNER! 

I’ve been a paper planner for years, but switched to digital planner recently. When I say game changer! I love that it’s easy to download any from Etsy, and everything is in one place…my iPad. I have my regular and faith planner together and it’s seamless.

You taking your time with the planner is like Rihanna taking her time with giving us music 😂😭Thank you soooo much for this planner, Shay, because I was one of the ones who wanted it. God bless you for your generosity 🙏🏽 These are great points in the digital versus paper planning debate. I'm a mesh of both but leaning more towards digital planning for the reasons your mentioned above especially being able to move things around.

Thanks for sharing! I’m ready to try digital planning.

Wow! This is exactly what I needed to hear. I have been using digital planning for about a month and am obsessed! I’ve been a paper planner for decades as well, and am amazed at how quickly I can plan and make changes throughout the week, if needed. Thank you for this video and looking forward to your digital planner. 😊

I'm definitely switching to digital planning for the new year. I waste so much paper, I have too many pens, highlighters, stickers, just all the bells and whistles that goes with paper planning. I'm just over it at this point.

I started with Happy Planner in 2019. Then got into Archer and Olive in 2020. I got my tablet in June this year and I'm so much happier. Now I have a bunch of Stationary stuff I want to sell. My only regret is not going straight to digital planning after HP.

Thank you for the free digital planner very helpful. I have been enjoying doing digital planning for pre planning and having an overview for the month.

Thanks for sharing. Since the end of 2020, I’ve created a few digital products for my personal use. Mainly daily journals and a work planner. (I’m in the process of making a pregnancy journal and hoping to need it soon.) I will be recreating my daily journal for 2023 bc it’s been working, but struggling with my work planner. I thought about creating a physical journal for work 2023, but after watching this video I’m leaning towards creating another digital one and tweaking some things to fit my needs for work. We will see!

Thanks for the planner. I wasn't expecting it to be hyperlinked. Have a great new year.

Thank you for sharing your digital planner. I joined the digital planning community this year and I’m staying put 😍

Yes!! Thank you so much for this! I've loved your channel for years and a digital planner from you is the best thing to start a new year with!

Every point you made in this video is spot on! I tried digital planning after seeing you give it a go. When you mentioned that you check in with your paper planner more than your digital planner (because you don’t want to waste your money on the paper planner), that really hit home. Thank you for sharing your digital planner. I can’t wait to check it out.

Thank you! I love the minimalistic look...looking forward to using it and sharing my spreads! :)

I am going to try out your digital planner but I do love my paper planner. I need to be able to decorate it in order to want to use it. Otherwise I would ignore it for months. But we’ll see after I try out the digital one.

Thank you so much for providing a digital planner. I prefer the simplicity and ease of anything digital. Currently I keep track of a lot of personal information in spreadsheets. This past few years I’ve been wanting to transfer over to digital planning. I enjoy streamlining my life and saving time even though I am retired.

You must use small planners. Most planners I've used were much harder to bring along than an ipad would be

I love paper planners for all the reasons you described. I'm going try your digital planner for budgeting and workouts/lifestyle wellness.

I really liked this video. I have been using a planner for years and am currently in an EC. I have tried digital planners and I actually felt overwhelmed, but am now thinking I just got a digital planner with way more than I needed. It feels clumsy to me, BUT I love the idea of just using my iPad, instead of lugging a big planner around. I may give it another shot, after all it is still on my iPad =)

You’re so awesome to give this away for free!!

I love me some paper 📜 & pen 🖋️ but I swear... When the ipads came out it was a major game changer. I love 💕 to be organized and all that paper 📜 frustrate me after some time. With the iPad, once I done ✅ with a year 📆 all I have to do is upload to the cloud ☁️ to save it and continue with the next year. More convenient

I thought about switching, but I dislike not knowing how to navigate digital planners lol. It’s quite frustrating trying actually which takes the fun out of it for me 😂 and I don’t have the patience. But the digitals always look so cute & fun.

I am thinking about trying the digital because I do love to hold my planner ,but I wanted to try it.

I love digital planning but I don’t like taking my iPad out with me to check my planner. I’ve been trying to find a way to use both

In US the tablet planner might be cheaper, because if the cheaper tablet prices, in other countries it's not, so I use notion and paper printables

Thank you so much!!❤

Thank you so much for the planner, I am new to this whole digital planner thing but really want to try it, how do I put it on my iPad ?

Will you be teaching how to create a digital planner?

Do you use notion? I'd like to watch the same video comparing this digital planning that you describe here vs Notion or whatever app

Do you mind sharing the font you used for the planner?

👍

....did you really say that digital planners are more accessible and more affordable? Except for that small detail of needing a $100-$1000 device by which to actually access the thing 🤣🤣

Yaaasssss Shay…. You know I’ve been waiting for this day! So yes, I am a digital planner chick. I started the beginning of this year and I absolutely love it. And because I use GoodNotes, my iPad is synced with my phone so my planner goes along with me wherever I go. Only downside to that, I can’t add anything to it via phone. But that’s minor. Thank you so much for the freebies. I’m going to download it now. And you already know that I will be looking out for any “updates “ you may have going on with the planner! 😝😉🫶🏽
