How I Plan 2023 with an Index Card System (Functional Planner) – Sidetracked Home Executives

In this video I will show you how to organize your life using a 3×5 index card system, inspired by Sidetracked Home Executives. The discount mentioned in this video has since expired.

I’m so excited to share the card deck I have loved with others!! My 2023 plan with me videos look pretty similar to what I’ve done in the past, with a big exception to meal planning. I use digital way less than I ever have. Part of that is due to us being on a boat (see our family vlogs at http://youtube.com/thedonoghs).

However, the much larger reasoning behind it is that I am growing tired of always being called to my phone. I still use my Passion Planner and do Morning Pages. Most importantly, I still love using my cards consistently. There is something about the nostalgic feeling of index cards that I love. Plus, like I mention in the video, I’m able to clear a big chunk of what I used to always feel behind on out of my brain and even off of my planner. Score!

I keep high level goals in the Passion Planner, do a “brain dump” during morning pages, and automate the reminders and snooze with my card system. It’s been pretty great. I hope you’ll try out the card system. My shop features my card deck as a digital download. You download the pages that work best with how you’re printing. There is also an option to edit using Canva if you’re interested in customizing your card deck. Purchase, download, print, cut, and organize.
