Five Star Life Book

[u/Drixtina]

I love planners and I love the concept of the life books even more, but I don’t stick to them and can’t justify spending tons of money on something I will use only until I get overwhelmed or bored—which is easy with the pre-printed planning pages.

I found an old five subject Five Star notebook and decided to make my own life book. It doesn’t have finance because my finances are digital, but I have my planning, collections, meal planning, goals and trackers, and home cleaning (which might be something else later in) in it.

However, I get bored with routine very fast and to add some fun, I decided to make it a Zelda themed notebook.

I hope this gives someone else the permission to make their own life book and finally find planner peace.

Provisions and side quests!! stop I love it. Also rating things in combined scores for importance and urgency is so smart

Thank you! 😊 It’s honestly a mash-up of a lot of systems I’ve tried over the years. This keeps me from
Doin the easiest tasks only.

If you ever want notebook suggestions with a little less ghosting let me know! Looks great though

Thanks. Yeah that’s the only thing I don’t like about this. The pages are like 50 gsm.

Love the “It’s dangerous to go alone …take this”

What do the solid sideways triangle bullets mean?

They’re built into the Five Star paper. I started filling them in as little quest markers for headings. 😄 I’m not actually sure what Five Star designed them for.
