  1. This was an interesting episode!
    I'm making a conscious effort to not look too much at what other people post (set ups etc) because I notice that it gives me a 'the grass is greener' mentality. It's like I start looking for a solution to a problem I don't have. It is my belief that most people will do just fine with one single planner, but it's hard to stick with that when the planner community is overflowing with collections, and supplies and washi and new layouts and discounts.
    It's only recently that I have realised that I do not need all the inserts and planners. My wallet is thanking me!

    On another, more positive note: I absolutely agree planner needs change. That's the beauty of ring planners, I think, that you can tweak a solid system whenever you need it :-)
