I love my full focus planner in Leather. When I first started using them five years ago, they had a mix of colors you could order for the year. They were beautiful - red, eggplant, turquoise and i forgot the other color - really vibrant. I do still use the more muted color planners, but I miss the pop of color they used to add to my day. The muted colors just are not as fun.
I have tried tons of planners over the past 10 years, and this is the best. It is jammed packed with everything I need. I especially like that there is a section for goals and a separate section for projects. Planning my life by quarters has always worked best for me so this planner was a perfect fit. I love these planners.
I LOVE the size of this planner and get a lot of compliments- I just wish it came in other colors!!!!!!!
Having been a Full Focus user for 7-8yrs, I was so happy to find the Minimalist. I needed something more concise, clean, and this is PERFECT. Combined it with the page magnets and pen sleeve, and it fits my needs perfectly.
When i was working i used the regular FFP, when i retired i switched to the minimalist planner and it is absolutely perfect for my needs and lifestyle in retirement.
More is crazier for my busy nonstop mind. Committing thoughts to paper is tantamount for me to be efficient. So many options out there that I get lost in details of details. I was overjoyed to see this format that reflects my exact needs. I echo prior reviews about wanting a comeback and clicked to be notified when it’s back in stock.
Great planner design, love being able to keep info sheets constantly in planner and update pages when and how I need to.
I have been using the Full Focus Planner ever since it came out. It is my go to tool for keeping my life in order. I have recommended to many and regularly encourage my coaching clients to subscribe.
Thank goodness its back! I was lost for a few months... Purchased!!!! But Please bring the coil back if you can :)
Hi Mary, we're so glad you're happy it's back! Thanks for your feedback on the coil and we'll for sure pass it along to the team. Happy planning!
I have used practically all formats of the Full Focus Planner. As a new format has been released, I have given it a try to find the right fit. I am now a committed fan of the Minimalist, coil version. The size is perfect for a briefcase and has all the basics of the Full Focus system. I may sometimes need more space, but compensate by using either the day before or the day after. Well done, Full Focus team!
Hi Davis, we're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the Minimalist Planner! Thank you for your continued support and detailed feedback. We're glad it fits your needs perfectly. Happy planning!
So glad this is back, i was using it for a number of years then it disappeared! I like the size, allows for extra planning. i love how you all added an "other tasks section" on the daily pages, i dont recall it having that last time i used it which forced me to go back to the standard size (which i still love). i ordered 2 today to get back on track. SO HAPPY!
Hi David, we're so happy to hear you're pleased with the return of the planner! Thank you for your continued support and for sharing your feedback. Enjoy your new planners and happy planning!
Best planner for uour whole life . I think in will go with tje loose leaf next time so i can move my oages around to my preference
Love this thinner planner ! I had used the standard Full Focus Planner for years and find this new compact format so user friendly while keeping all if the great features of the standard one.
I have used the regular Full Focus Planner and found I was not using all the pages. I also felt a bit overwhelmed by that fact. I ordered the Full Focus Minimalist to see if it was a better fit. I love the streamlined page layout. I am using it daily and sticking to a routine. That's a big win for me and I love the system. It speaks to me unlike any other type of planner I have used. I'm more efficient and less stressed overall. I would love to see more color options but otherwise, I think it's perfect.
Hi there! We're thrilled to hear that the Minimalist Planner is helping you stay organized and reduce stress. Thanks for your kind words and feedback on color options — we'll pass that along. Keep enjoying your routine!
This is, by far, the best planner I've found for daily use. It has two pages per day, roundups/reflections at the beginning of each weak, a weekly overview page, and a timeline for listing meetings. The way it's organized is great, too. All of the pages you use are in order (instead of how some planners have all weekly roundups at the beginning then daily spreads in another section) so you never have to go crazy flipping through pages. very easy to use.
This is a quarterly planner, so if you use this every day, you'll go through it in 3 months. I've seen some complaints about this, but having it be quarterly is by far the best decision they could've made from a product perspective. if they had made this planner span a full year, it would've been literally one thousand pages long. They lean into the quarterly structure and build your goal-setting around it, which makes the planner feel very supportive. Also, for my workflow, it makes a lot more sense to set goals quarterly, so I like this layout/organization a lot.
Lastly, this planner feels pretty durable, and I'm pleased with the paper quality. I'm a big spiral-bound notebook person. I like being able to flip all of the pages back to focus on one page at once, then leave the notebook on my desk. The pages are definitely thick enough. I'm writing with ballpoint pen (muji .5 gel pen) and there's no bleed-through. The pages are a nice color too. They're not fluorescent white (thank god), but more of a nice cream color that's easy on the eyes. the spiral binding is really good quality too, the metal is very thick.
Needless to say, I'm glad I purchased this, and plan on re-purchasing again multiple times. If this brand every announces that they're discontinuing this planner, I will buy a box of 20 and hoard them in my basement. Highly recommend!
Hi Serena, thank you so much for your wonderful review! We're thrilled to hear how much you love the planner and appreciate the thoughtful details you've shared. Your enthusiasm means a lot to us, and we're glad it fits perfectly into your workflow. Looking forward to your continued support!
Love the format. Includes everything I need, without any extra. Big size allows for daily customization as needed.
Hi Dennis, we're delighted to hear you love the planner! Thanks for sharing your positive experience. Enjoy using it for your big days!
I blindly made this purchase after someone mentioned the Full Focus Planner on Reddit. I use a small binder and like to rearrange things, so I decided to start with the loose leaf inserts.
Wow, I'm glad I gave this a chance. I took a few weeks to "fade in" to using FF by watching the training videos and taking notes. But it wasn't actually that much to prep and learn. Everything makes total sense and there is a home for everything - your goals, your daily to-dos, your monthly and quarterly plans, your ongoing projects, and what I am loving most, the Ideal Week and Daily Rituals sections.
At the end of the year I might actually purchase the traditional bound planner going forward instead of the loose leaf inserts, though I'm glad I started with these either way. It's just that after learning how all-inclusive the pages are, I kind of like the idea of them being bound together. We'll see.
Anyway, highly recommend! :)
Hi Lauren,
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your journey with us! We absolutely love hearing how you 'faded in' to the Full Focus system by using the training videos. That is exactly the best way to set yourself up for success.
It's wonderful to hear that the Ideal Week and Daily Rituals sections are already making such a positive impact on your routine. The loose-leaf inserts are a fantastic, flexible way to test the waters, and whether you decide to stick with them or transition to a classic bound planner at the end of the year, we are just so glad to have you in the Full Focus community.
Welcome aboard, and here is to smashing your goals! :)
Hi Jessica, we're thrilled to hear you love the planner! We'll pass along your feedback about the coil portfolio planner to our team. Thanks for your support!
I am a recovering weekly planner, but I have been overwhelmed and unproductive lately. I tried out the focus planner after seeing so many ads and reading hte comments. I actually really enjoy this planner. It makes work feel manageable. I love that it is chunked into smaller focus areas quarterly instead of annually, and daily instead of weekly. I love the top 3 and teh weekly reflection. So far so good! I am about a month in and I have been consistently reflecting and planning. I love it.
Hi Jessie, we're thrilled to hear you're enjoying the Full Focus Planner! It's great that the focus on manageable chunks is helping you stay consistent. Thanks for sharing your experience!
The portfolio Full Focus planner has been my sidekick since its original release. I had used the original format for years but wanted something "larger" with more space for notes and something I could use essentially as a portfolio when going to meetings. This format of the FFP is perfect for me - plenty of room for notes (both on daily page and in the back), I can slide any needed agendas or other information for a meeting inside the back cover and I am ready! The portfolio planner slides easily into my messenger bag, looks sharp just sitting on my desk, and contains all of the information I need each day. Highly recommended!
Hi Mark, we're thrilled to hear how well the Full Focus Planner - Portfolio works for you! Thank you for sharing your experience and for the high recommendation. We love being part of your daily routine!
