NEW 2020 Power Sheets Goal Planner and Accessories | Cultivate What Matters

hello welcome back to my channel thank you so much for joining me today today I am going to share with you the brand new 2020 cultivate what matters power sheets I was going to kick off this video with a front facing intro talking about how much I love the power sheets and how much they've changed my life and I'm going to do a little bit of that but we have so much to get through today I thought I would just go ahead and start top down so quick background the power sheets are a goal setting planner they are not a weekly or daily planner they are specifically meant to help you figure out what your goals should be what's important to you in your life and help you create goals around those things I told the story of my background with the power sheets in last year's video so if you want to hear a little bit more about when I first tried the power sheets years ago you can go check out that video in this video I'm just gonna talk about this past year in 2019 and how much the power sheets have absolutely changed the way that I approach goal-setting of course I've always had goals I mean who hasn't I feel like every year I set a bunch of resolutions on January 1st but the biggest thing that has changed for me is that I've understood that I can't get it all done in January I can't even get it all done in the first quarter I probably won't even get it all done in the entire year but the power sheets have helped me figure out which goals are most important and create baby steps and action plans to actually make progress on those goals over the entire year so this year I have read more books than I probably read my entire adult life like my entire post college life I cleaned my Tupperware cabinet and kept it clean there are just so many things that I've done this year that I've tried to do in prior years and had very little success with so that is all I'm gonna say about the power sheets themselves if you want a little bit more insight on how I use them I do post a monthly check-in video every single month where I share how my goals went for the prior month and all the goals that I have set up for the upcoming month and you can see a little bit more about how they play into my everyday life but for this video we're talking about the new ones and I'm gonna talk about all the changes from last year we're gonna do some product comparisons I'm going to show you all the sides like not every single page I'm not gonna flip through every month because the months all look the same but I'll show you a lot of the inside pages and then at the end we'll talk through some of the new accessories they have a lot of new accessories available on launch day this year and then I will share some of the discounts that they have available for a launch day so this is gonna be a super long video we're gonna get right into it and start by talking about the outside changes of the power sheets this year and the biggest one that a lot of people are so excited about a me included is the hard cover so the cover last year was somewhat of a it was like a thick cardstock it's smooth it's like a coated thick cardstock and it is pretty durable I mean they did a test last year where they ran over it with a car and I mean it is durable I have thrown this in like my backpack and it has definitely like stood up to some wear and tear but I just think that this beautiful hard cover is gonna just make a huge difference this year you can see the other major difference is the coil so last year they had a plastic coil and now they are doing it this I think it's called wire bound coil it is gold you don't get to pick a different color if you've been around gold is not my favorite of the foil metal options but I like the upgrade in the coil and then there are some metal corner covers on the hardbound cover which is really helpful because if you are like traveling with this at all if you're putting it in a bag if you're carrying it anywhere now don't get me wrong it is big and heavy it's a large planner so it's not something that I carry around all the time at all but sometimes I would take it places because I'm traveling and I want to work on them or because I'm going to a coffee shop to work on them and having those corners is super nice from a size perspective they're about the same width as last year's they're a little bit taller I guess I can do it this way for you to actually see that they're a little bit taller than last year's planners as you can see because of the I I don't that's just the nature are the hard bounder they just wanted the pages in sight to be a little bit more protected I also you know I hope that it protects the tap a little bit more because my some of my tabs did get a little bit ruined when it was in about so we'll see if the hard bomb cover makes a difference there so as you can see here I chose this confetti cover that's what it's called confetti it is just all the colors multicolored this gorgeous pattern they've had this pattern for a while this is one of the signature patterns of the company and last year as you could see all the covers have that same pattern but they were different like color schemes so I got the pink and orange one they had a teal one a yellow one and then a multicolored one which I didn't get last year so I was really excited to get that this year they do have four different cover options so this is just a little like product pamphlet that they included in my PR box I know that some people got these in the mail if you've ordered from the company before I don't know if they're including this in every order that goes out with the brand new power sheets but I am really excited to have this to show you a bunch of the new products so there are four different covers so they have this really pretty flower print which I absolutely love - I'm not a big floral person but these big bold flowers are just really speak to me and then they have two solid colored ones that have a different feel to the cover like the the material is different so mine is super smooth but these apparently are much more linen texture so there's a teal and a pink and I chose mine based on aesthetics alone I didn't see any of these like word theories when I picked mine I got an email that said here are the options which one would you like us to send you and I chose the confetti based on aesthetics alone once I saw the release of the words I really was like oh I kind of feel like I want to order the pink one because those words really feel like that's how I feel right now that's what I feel like I need at least when I saw this release I feel like I needed all of these things however I think now that the majority of my 2020 is gonna be focused on wedding planning I think that these words are exactly what I need I think that this is it's gonna be perfect I think that it was meant to be my cover choice for 2020 so I'm really excited about it and here are the other options the other big change from like a design aspect this year is this pocket that's on the inside this is now it is a paper pocket so it definitely like could rip if you pull on it too hard it is very tight though like you're not gonna fit a whole lot in there and it I don't know I don't know if it's gonna stretch out over time but it is super super tight like I don't even know if you could fit like a notebook in there maybe a really skinny notebook but it is a super tight pocket it's very interesting a couple things that come inside there's always this like protecting cardstock sheet there's always this little card that says you know all those things you've wanted to go do you should go do them there is a card for you to write your word of the year this looks the same as it did last year and then there's a card that says 2020 let's do this I have my 2019 one actually on my desk like so I can see it when I sit at my desk all right let's get to the insides so the paper this year is the same paper as last year I did a pen test last year so I'm not gonna do that again this year since it's the same paper you can go watch that video if you want to see the pen test I ended up using a papermate Flair all year and I'm gonna do the same thing again this year because I loved using the papermate Flair in this planner it just it wrote really nicely on the paper and I love the way that it looked I actually ordered a brand new pack for this year before I dive in so I'm gonna flip through page by page and I'm gonna comment on whether this was in the 2019 version has it changed has it moved around some of the pages are in there but they're in a different order than they were last year I think that a lot of the changes that they made I think are going to be very helpful when it comes to goal-setting I'll share with you the one change that I feel like my it feels a little bit out of order to me but I do trust their method when it comes to this process so I trust that they did what they did for a reason so let's go ahead and start flipping at this page it's always kind of the same just sort of like advertisement and then sort of an overview of like what you're about to get into I'm not gonna lie I'm having a little bit of trouble turning the pages just keeps getting stuck a little bit I don't know what that is hopefully that loosens up like I literally just got this in the mail today so hopefully as I you know mess with the pages and start using it it it'll loosen up a little bit so I really like this page it says like maybe you're afraid to start writing because it's so perfect and pretty and I think that that was also a struggle I had in 2019 I always felt like it had to be perfect and pretty and this year I'm gonna try and get a little bit Messier with it and to the point where I'm gonna add things in or I'm gonna just um I want to use it more and I want I want it to look used I wanted to look like I used it my one this year probably does it look like I use it all that much so then we have the first page where you write your name this looks very similar to last year and then a quote page and then the stickers this is all in the exact same order was last year the stickers do look very similar to last year the biggest difference or these flowers because that is a new design for this year will talk a little bit more about stickers when we get to the sticker book that's part of the accessories so then it starts with just a 2020 whole ideas page just like a brain dump of all the ideas you have for 2020 this is exactly not exactly the same some of the words are different but visit this page was in last year's version as well I actually did like a mind map where I would write something in the middle and then like draw little bubbles coming off of it I might do the same thing this year we'll see alright this is sort of the first page that I think is a little bit different and is a theme that we're gonna see is we sort of flip through the prep work there is a lot more I feel like guidance in this year's power sheets I feel like there are a lot more words that are like trying to help you through this process instead of just a question with a blank space there are like paragraphs that are trying to help you work through everything there's just a lot more of that in this set then there were last year which I think can be really helpful I think it's gonna be helpful for everybody especially if it's your first time but I also think it's gonna be really helpful for anybody setting goals so if this page was actually not in last year's version I mean the quote was but all this extra stuff was not now I haven't read through all of it yet so maybe it was like sprinkled throughout but I just I really like that there is a little bit more to sort of guide you through the process so then you have this page where it's got like questions about yourself you know things that describe you and what you value there's a very similar page and last year's version page 10 again more words like this this page telling you like what to do and how to work through this and what to think about because I do think goal-setting is just a lot of it's mine and I think that's where something like this a tool like this really comes in handy so this page is new from last year this page is not new but it is way earlier than it was it used to be way further down the line and now it is very close to the front which you know I think that that's really valuable I think talking about what gets you excited and what what makes you happy I think is something that's really important to to identify early on because that should really be part of your goals I think I looked at this page last year as a rewards page like these are the things that are gonna be rewards for what I achieve my goals when in reality if these things fire me up shouldn't those be my goals now things like eating my vegetables doesn't fire me up but it probably should be part of my goals so there's a balance all right these two pages very similar to the pages from last year you have eight different categories and you're gonna evaluate them on a scale of one to ten they also encourage you to change the categories I know last year I changed the work category because truthfully I'm not using this for my work at all not that I don't have goals at work but I have a goal-setting system at work I don't need to use this for my work life the biggest difference here is there was a whole second page or third page rather where you talked about your top three from these categories and now they just want you to do a rate on this page which I thought was really interesting and that saved like a whole page in the prep work okay so these next two pages are very similar to pages that they had before but they were a little bit earlier they were sort of right after this like questionnaire about you they were right behind that so they're a little bit later now which i think is fair i don't know that that really makes a difference i understand from a a mindset and that achieving goals is believing that you can achieve them and that this page really helps you like get over that hump from actually setting my goals I don't know if these pages really help me with that but that's that's just a personal opinion and then you have a quote so there used to be another page here and this is the only page that I can't I don't see it anywhere else in the power sheets the only page that we seem to have lost so to speak from the 19 prep work which is fine it wasn't a page that was necessarily life-changing for me it was about things that you need to let go of it's very similar to the fears but we're talking about a missing page which I'm not gonna share with you because there are some things on my page that I don't want to share but that's the only one that seems to be missing and I again I think for me I'm okay that it's missing because I don't feel like it really had an impact on what I set my goals as but I can see from a mindset perspective the value that a page like that brings okay so then we have the fear page which this looks very similar to the page from last year okay and then we have the good things and challenges spread this is very similar to last year as well again some of these words are going to be different but the overall structure of the page is very very much the same I really love this page and I do think that after going through the power sheets in 2020 I'm gonna have a lot more to write on these pages alright and then these pages again very similar from last year all these same questions were part of last year's I also really like these pages let's keep flipping again this video is gonna be so long another page of like words and guidance I love having these I wish there were more of these because I do think a lot of it is like thinking through it and I really appreciate those then there's the big picture page now this page was in the power sheets last year but this year they split it up into two columns so last year it said like the big picture what will and what won't matter to you and and then it just had a bunch of space and I did notice on mine I went back and looked at it I mostly answered just this question and what will matter to me and I didn't really talk about what won't I thought that was interesting so now I'm glad that there's two columns so that really forces me to answer both pieces of the question then there's another beautiful quote and then this page is totally new there was nothing like this in the power sheets last year talking about your legacy and what you want to leave behind and I really appreciate this page because Sam and I actually just recently had a conversation very similar to this we actually we answered a bunch of questions that was in an article that the whole debate what matters team shared and we talked about them during our road trip and I just I really feel like this is an important page so I really really appreciate this edition now we get to the threads so they talk about this topic called threads and I'm not gonna go through all of it but it's just about finding commonalities between all your answers from thus far everything that you've answered what are some things that you keep seeing pop up and what I think is really interesting is that this is much earlier than it was last time so last time it started on page 35 and this time it's starting on page 26 which means there are like 10 pages of questions that you're not answering before you do this part and as we go through what's behind it I will say that some of it I feel like it is good that it's afterwards I can see the value in it some of it I I wish was before still but that's okay like I said I trust their process so this page is just much earlier than it was in the past this page is new this my cultivated your page and sort of these like another sort of vision page and just blank space and then we have a brainstorm page and like a big picture vision and just a place for you to write any goal ideas that you could possibly happen this is the same as last year this is what used to immediately follow the threads this is one of my all-time favorite pages and this is one of the ones that I really felt like I wish was before the threads so it's a column of things you're saying no to and a column of things that you're saying yes to this again was one of my favorite pages to fill out last year and to go back and look at especially when I was maybe struggling to come up with some of my action items each month but I do wish that this page came before the thread page but that's just me and then there's choosing your word of the year now this is one of the things I think is good to come behind the threads page so last year it was before so you actually picked your word of the year before you sort of went through all your questions no it still told you to like go through all your answers to try and find a theme to figure out your word of the year but I think it really it fits better after you you do the thread activity so I really like that it's after this piece of the word of the year is very similar as this page is new it's this beautiful floral print again it you write your word of the year and then you write why this piece in particular is new this year but I think that that's really valuable and then this page is also something that was before the threads and it's after now I'm a little indifferent to this page part of me kind of wishes it was before but part of me is kind of okay with it with it being after I do like this page I think it's a nice sort of summary page of what your year will look like what you want your life to look like so I do really like this page I wish I had gone back and looked at mine more in 2019 all right and then the last thing before you actually set your goals is a vision board and truthfully I never went back and looked at my vision board and I don't really have a feeling for whether I like it or I don't like it here I like I said I never went back and looked at it maybe now that it's right by the goals tab and this is somewhere that I will come back to I'll look at it more I ended up like actually making mine on the computer and then printing it out as like just one page and included in there not really sure this page in and of itself didn't necessarily make or break my process here so overall like all the questions like all the what they consider the prep work is the same number of pages it was 34 pages last year it's 34 pages this year now it's not actually 34 pages okay because it doesn't actually start until page five and that's just writing your name and there are a lot of quote pages and like guidance pages there's probably only like 20 ish pages of actual questions that you have to answer I will say it does take a decent amount of time to do that and you need to make sure if you are working on the power sheets this year that you give yourself enough time to get through all this prep work because we haven't even gotten to the actual setting of the goals this is just answering questions to figure out what's important so now we get to the actual goal setting so it's its own it's a new tab and just like last year the pages with the tab is a more of a thick cardstock the tabs are laminated and they're all the same color as they were last year Oh again with that beautiful floral print alright so then it talks about setting your goals and what goals mean and then it talks about how to choose your goals now these pages are very very different from last year I think the process might be the same but they have they've changed the way they have you do it so last year where was these like boxes or you had to to summarize things you had to put things into categories and then summarized them together and truthfully I didn't really get it I actually didn't like those pages and I felt like I was already trying to set my goals I wasn't it just wasn't helpful but these pages I haven't read through all of it yet but it does seem like it's very very helpful and a much more valuable process than the process from last year so I really like these pages and then the other big change for this year is there are only spots for eight goals that's it last year and I think for a lot of years prior there are space for 10 now I actually only ended up with 8 and a lot of people that I saw did not fill in all 10 spots but I found it very interesting that this year they only have space for 8 which i think is very cool I think you really probably shouldn't do more than eight goals anyways and the other big part of it is you're doing a refresh every three months and you're redoing these eight goals and some of them may stay the same and some of them may change either way though you can't have more than eight for that particular quarter and I think that that's really helpful the other big change to this goal section is you have your goals and then you have your action sheet so there's gonna be an action plan for each individual goal last year they were flipped around so you did all these individual action plans and then you went and summarized your goals now I see the value both ways so at first at first when it was that way I was like that's backwards I should do my goals and then go do my action plans but then I watched either one of Laura KC's videos or something on Instagram where what you want to summarize your goal as may come out of answering these questions on the action pages so then it made sense to me I was like okay you're right I might write something as my goal for this year and then you know I fill out all these things and my mini goals and then what I want to write here is gonna be a little bit different I see the value both ways I don't think it's that big of a deal that they switch places but it is something to know that's different if you did use them last year the other big change on this page is that they have you break it down into three mini holes and then each mini goal into three starting steps I can actually show you a blank one because like I said I only did eight and there were space for ten so I have a blank one that I can show you so this side is pretty similar these two pages are pretty similar but this side is very so it had just like a brain dump space for you to write a bunch of ideas and then you picked three starting step now you've picked three mini goals and then three starting steps for each and then there's a note suction I think that this is much better I think this is much more helpful than this we'll find out when I actually do it but I I really like the change to this page so again you have one of each of these for all of your eight goals and then you have a year at a glance I never used this page I started to use it at the beginning and then I never went back and referenced it because I wrote something that made no sense and well I mean it made sense but it didn't end up happening it didn't come to fruition and so I just like I just sort of didn't use these pages I still don't know if I'm gonna use these pages I might actually ask like the Facebook group if they have recommendations on how they use these pages better because I didn't use them and I mean I kind of want to I think that it could be valuable but who knows okay now let's get into the monthly sections these have changed quite a bit and in my opinion for the better all-around so I will be honest and start by saying I rarely fill out all the things on the monthly sections besides the tending list I just didn't do it I always felt and this is just gonna this is gonna sound awful but I always felt like my time was more valuable than filling out all these other sections and that I could create my tending list on my own without filling out these other sections and and that it was gonna be fine and I didn't need to do that I'm here to say that I was wrong and I know that everything that they put in the book is there for a reason and that there's a purpose for each of these steps and the reality is it doesn't take that long to do it and one of my goals I already I can already tell you for 2020 is going to be to actually do the whole monthly section every single month now it does help that they have simplified the monthly section which I really appreciate so again I can show you a blank one we can flip to November so basically what they did was they took these two pages so this one and this one and combined it to one and they kept some of the categories and they changed some of the categories and again I think having less categories is helpful I think it'll it's more likely to have people do it ie me and it's just less overwhelming I think the smaller sections are also less overwhelming like this is such a big section for fears I have every single month like fears I have every single month it's so big from this page it keeps I'm hopeful that it has what's stressing me out and then it eliminates the fears and then from this page it has I'm excited for and important to do's and then instead of this on my calendar category we have a monthly layout in my opinion is the biggest game-changer in the power sheets next year I think having a space in your power sheets to actually map out when you are going to do the things that you say you're going to do is game-changing I think that being able to say okay well here are the monthly action items here is when I can actually do them in the month and again I'm gonna try to be better about being okay with it being messy let me create a plan at the beginning of the month and if I have to cross it off and move it to another day that's okay but at least there's a plan in place that if it works out then it's there versus the way that I have been approaching it which is oh well when I find time in the month you know then I will go look at my monthly action item list and then do one of those like that's not gonna get everything done so I'm really excited about this layout again I think this is gonna make a huge difference for me and hopefully a lot of other people as well and it's gonna force me to actually use my cultivate what matters washi which I did not do a good job of this year then you have these two pages these are just in January it's just a tending list tip on creating your tending list and then a little quote but these pages are not in any of the other months so then we have the like goals idea page and what I like about this first off is that it's got a little bit of click category split like this one just wanted you to do a brain dump and this felt overwhelming to me and I didn't want to do that which is why I like never did it any other month it also felt a little bit repetitive to me to then transfer it to the tanning list now that's still true but at least there's two columns so I feel like there's a little bit more structure and it's guiding me a little bit more and then I like that it's next to the tunning list so you can see it like right there while you're working on it versus last year it was this weird flip where you had if you wrote it here like if I wrote all my ideas down then I was flipping back and forth to to this page one of the other things that I did last year was I would put sticky notes on my attending list like the month before and then I would write ideas as they came to me and now I'm gonna try and just write them actually on here like if I have an idea I'm just gonna write it on there and if I don't end up using it like what's the big deal so I'm really excited about this switch I think that that's a really I think it's a really good change to have them right next to each other and to have this one have these two separate categories the tending list itself has not changed at all the font got a little bit bigger but that's the only change from last year so this one has stayed exactly the same which i think is helpful the only thing I do wish they would change on this page I wish there was a place to write the dates for the weeks because as much as we all would like to the month never starts on a Monday I mean it did like once this year and that was really awesome but that is rare and so to know like well am I talking about the first full week of the month or the like week the month starts so but sometimes I was actually writing them the days like on top of it but I wish there was actually a space to write that but that's just a personal preference all right and then you have a blank page on the back because if you want to rip this out that you're not losing anything you can also add a wild-card sheet here we'll talk a little bit more about those later and then the last page and the month is the month in review I will show you a blank one it looks exactly the same from a category perspective but the design is different this one's got some color to it I do like the color better I will also admit though that I rarely ever did these two I don't know why I just felt like it wasn't worth my time but I'm gonna try to be better about that in 2020 so those are the monthly sections that's gonna be the exact same set up for every single month so this first page with the four categories the monthly layout the like ideas goals brain dump page the tending list and then the month in review then there are the quarterly check-ins and these also look very very similar to last year's so there's one page that is very specific to the quarter then there is a refresh on the eight categories in your life and then there is a refresh on eight I'm gonna be honest here to the only one of these I ever did was spring because in my head I was like why am I gonna change my goals my goals are the same for the whole year why I just went through 34 pages of prep work to come up with these eight goals why would I change them and when I look back on it I should have I should have refreshed them and should have done that so that's also gonna be a gold mine in 2020 is to also do all the quarterly refreshes and just know that I need to set aside more time at the end of each quarter to actually go through them but those all look the same as well even like the categories like the spring is a clutter clearing the clutter summer is having a fruitful summer fall is cultivating contentment and then oh there is no winter one because setting up for the year is really your winter one there's only three quarterly quarterly ones so that is the inside of the power sheets I can't recommend these enough I think that they are worth every penny the price of the power sheets is $60 again we'll talk about some launch day discounts not on the power sheets by themselves but some bundles that you can get but even if you just want to get the power sheets at $60 that is $5 a day and that it is worth every single penny in my opinion all right let's set those aside for now and start talking about the accessories so they have a page in this little book of fun here of all the accessories so we're gonna start with this page and just go 1 through 13 the ones that I do have here in person to show you I will show them to you the ones that I don't I will just talk about what I think about them I'll share with you which ones I think that I'm gonna be purchasing and then which ones I will probably skip over so let's start with number 1 which is the gift wrap book and it is $24 there's also another picture of it over here on this page so it says that it comes with twelve fold out sheets and twelve foil gift tags and it comes in four designs so it looks like they each repeat three times I'm torn on this because I bet it's beautiful knowing their quality like even this book y'all is like super high quality and beautiful I know the quality is gonna be there and in reality at $24 that's $2 per present II's aliy pay that for a gift at the drugstore because I live in a small apartment I don't keep rolls of wrapping paper now if you can keep rolls of wrapping paper that's gonna be more cost-effective than this but I can't keep rolls of wrapping paper so I kind of like this option as like a space-saving option but to have beautiful like wrapping paper at my disposal and at two bucks the present like it's really not a bad price because I know the quality is gonna be there so this one is high up on my list it's still a maybe we'll see if it hops into my cart on launch day but I'm leaning towards it also any accessories that I do order on launch day I probably won't create a separate video for but I will share them in a weekly vlog so just keep an eye out okay the second one is the wall calendar so it's the your best your wall calendar I do have this from this current year it's at my desk at work truthfully it's more of a decoration I don't use the wall calendar for anything specific except the quote on the top is beautiful and it just looks nice up on my calendar also people will sometimes randomly like reference a wall calendar at your desk when you're talking about scheduling a meeting or whatever so having one there everybody ends up having one at their desk because the company provides one I just haven't have a prettier one but it really is more of a decoration piece than like a function piece and because I get a free one from the company I may not grab this this is lower on my on my maybe list still a my maybe list because I know that the 2019 one was beautiful and I loved looking at the quotes but I'm not sure that I need the 2021 I will say though I don't have this in person but the 2019 one was like bound like this on the top so when you were hanging it up you really had to press it down to make it flat to hang it on the wall and it looks like the new one is coiled at the top which i think is a really really good improvement on the product and I think that if you do use a wall calendar I think $22 absolutely worth it alright the next thing is the pouch which I do have to show you so I got the teal pouch as you can see here it comes in three colors comes in teal it comes in that flower print and it comes in the green so I chose the teal because I thought that it would look the best with my power sheets it huge y'all like look at this it almost covers the entire power sheets I am blown away by how big this is and it's got a pink elastic on the back and then a little pink zipper and it's got this little gold this is there like cultivate leaves logo I wish it didn't have this truthfully I wish it was just plain teal but I love how big this couch is so it goes all the way around my power sheets like pretty easily but again it's so big I'm just really excited about the size because let me show you here is last year's couch look how much shorter it is so last year's pouch I didn't use all that much because I really struggled to get the sticker book inside of it it fit like height and width but getting it in the pocket was really hard so I didn't really use my pouch all that much last year but I think I will get a lot more use out of this year's pouch because it is so big and getting the sticker book in and out is really easy it's got the same pattern on the inside as it did last year this like rainbow little leaf pattern I'm not sure if they all have the same pattern on the inside I don't think there is the pouch does have its own page but I don't think there's a picture of what the inside looks like no so I have to imagine the green one also has that rainbow on the inside but I'm not sure if they did that on the flower when that flower one is really pretty young when I was regretting like or leaning towards I kinda wanted the pink cover I was like oh with that flower pouch it would be so pretty but I'm very happy with my choice my teal pouch and my confetti powder sheets okay the next thing is we cultivate what matters washi tape and it is these four rolls for $12 which I mean at three dollars a roll like we've paid more for washi tape and these are still on my maybe but really leaning towards no and here's why I hardly ever used the washi tape from last year so I got the washi tape last year it was only these three rolls and I really didn't use it at all and not because it's not good quality I just like never pulled it out I think part of the problem also is that I hardly ever used my pouch and the washi was like in my pouch but my pouch was like not on my power sheets because it didn't hold my sticker book it was just there was a lot of things so I this year I'm just gonna try and use the washi that I have and not order the new washi especially because there is definitely a repeat of the confetti pattern actually I think it's five rolls I'm totally wrong it's five rolls it's not four it's hard because this pink one is definitely the same roll but it looks like it's this like teal stripe the pink one with the words the confetti this teal with the gold cultivate and then the flower and truthfully the only one that I really want out of that set is the flower one because I have the confetti one and the other three like just don't jump out at me so again I think I'm leaning towards no for the washi but if you didn't get last year's washi I would recommend getting the washi my plan is to use this in the monthly layouts to mark things that take up multiple days like travel and whatnot and I think just having a set of washi that's in my pouch if it goes with my power sheets is helpful but because I have last year set I don't need this year set okay the next thing is this new legacy journal number five and it is $18 it has its own page as well actually has a two-page spread so it looks like it's this really nice linen cover and it's got three different very pastel options here's what sort of the inside of it looks like it looks really beautiful and again their stuff is always very high quality I'm always very impressed with the quality I don't need another journal especially in a like super pastel color if these came in like the confetti or the flowers I would consider it but I don't need a pastel journal alright the next one are these magnetic page markers they are $8 for three of the little bookmarks I'm really tempted I really like the idea of these and my power sheets last year I used these little Ollie clips a lot to to mark different pages and so he liked the idea of having some that match so these are still a maybe for me they might hop into my cart these are maybe leaning yes okay the next accessory is this joyful greeting card set number seven they're for $24 I I can't like it doesn't say in this book anywhere how many it comes with but the last one that I got I believe it came with I want to say it came with 24 I'm trying to remember when I did the math I like I think it was 20 Forks I think I was blown away that it was $1 per card because they are super high quality and it also comes with envelopes that are gorgeous they have the confetti pattern on the inside of the envelope it was just I was blown away by the quality so I likely will be getting these again like I'm gonna look there looks like there are six designs and I'm pretty sure that we got four of each design and if there were 24 if that's the same case here these are definitely a yes for me because at one dollar a card I mean you can't buy a card at the drugstore for less than a dollar and that's like the dollar section right the high quality ones are like three four five six dollars so for a dollar card I highly recommend these I really love the set that I have I will try to find the video where I review that other set and I will link that for you below okay the next thing is number eight and this is a set of everyday line journal so it's three journals that are coming in a set they have their own section as well so it's $18 so it's really like six dollars a journal and they just look like they're lined on the inside with a little flower thing in the corner so we've got the flowers the confetti and then this sort of blue stripe I don't need these because again I have notebooks coming out of my ears I really like this idea because it's probably thin that it might fit in that folder I don't know that folder was really tight but that was the only thought of these but these are probably a no for me okay the next one is the sticker book which I do have to share with you the new goal setting sticker book I am really excited about this I like their stickers I like to use them in my power sheets the best part is the color coding system which I will talk about in a second because the first page is actually this like gorgeous quote page now we all know how I feel about gold I still love this page I mean I wish these solid gold ones were solid not gold but the colorful ones all these are so pretty I just I really like these and I definitely plan to use these in my power sheets I wish I'd used my stickers more last year I think I was trying too hard you know oh I want to save them and not use all of them but like I need to I need to just use them the other big change to the sticker is the top let me grab last year sticker book the pages came out really easily like they were coming apart and it was such a huge pain they were just glued together at the top but they just for whatever reason did not stay well and that was a big complaint from last year so they changed it this year to be this I don't really know what it is at the top I don't know it's not glue though it's like paper at the top but it so far I've been like kind of flipping around with them trying to see if I could get one to fall out they definitely don't fall out as easily as last year's version did we'll see how they hold up over a year the next couple pages are all about the color coding here are my thoughts on this I love the color coding it's like one of my favorite things about the power sheets why are there still ten colors when they cut the goals down to eight I don't need ten colors anymore I need eight colors I would rather have more of eight colors than ten colors so that make sense like I don't know if I'm crazy like am I not realizing something but I feel like since there are only eight categories they could have eliminated two of these colors and added more stickers there are two pages of the flags and these are for the goal like pages where you list your goals and then the Refresh pages that you are supposed to do every quarter and then you have the little color coding dots and these are for your tending lists what I do like though I will say is that they are the same colors as last year so I can use the ones that I haven't used up from last year so you have another page of dots I think you have three total pages of dots and then a page of hearts I never really used the hearts before but what I think I might use the hearts for next year is the calendar and putting stuff on the calendar and being able to color code those alright and then you have just a bunch of other sticker sheets these sheets are all very similar to the sticker book from last year they're really I'll share with you the ones that are really different but for the most part these are all very similar I'm flipping pretty quickly feel free to slow down the video or pause if you want to look at them but I'm just sort of quickly flipping through them they're beautiful and I do like using them one other comment I like these for the tending list page let's try it out actually so one of the big comments from last year what hopefully they fixed although one of the things I'm about to say they didn't fix so I don't feel like there are enough of these because I would like to use them for all of my monthly action items but there are only one two three four five six seven eight nine ten eleven twelve so there's only enough for three per month and I have more than three per month but the other thing was is that they were too short and it looks like okay I just put it down a little bit past it looks like they fixed it so they either made the stickers a little bit longer or they made the boxes a little bit shorter but now they fit perfectly but they're still not enough of them I still wish I had more of them so those I can't use the ones from last year because they are too short all right let's keep flipping get through this video we still have a couple more accessories to flip through so this page is obviously new because this is their new design for this year this is the same the same although I think this little running guy is new these three icons are definitely repeats but I think some of these down here are new but these are all wellness related celebrate this page is the same the holiday page and then this page is new they had some of these quotes in the last version but not all of them and I do really like these sometimes to use in like the encouraging word section up here or the top priority so I like that page so I highly recommend the goal setting sticker book even if it's just for the color coding I think that that helps me a lot with my power sheets okay the next one number 10 is the weekly sticky note pad which is exactly the same as the one from last year which I do have I like this I do find myself using this sometimes if I'm like having a really busy week and I need to just like live off of a notepad I also tried to use this a little bit for social media planning at one point because I like that it's actually sticky like it's sticky on the back it goes sticky fur and maybe on an inch or so inch and a half its sticky so I would stick this inside my planner cover and I was using this to play on social media I haven't been doing that recently but that was one of my random ideas so I'm obviously not grabbing this because I already have one but I do like this if there's something that you can see yourself using this for you meal planning or planning in advance this is also makes a really good notepad to like plan your week before you actually put it in your planner I think that this is a great option okay the next thing is the wild card page pack number eleven so it is ten dollars and I do have that to show you so let's go ahead and flip through these last year I did not get the pre-printed ones I figured I would just use the ones that they have available online I actually never ended up using the ones it's not available online and then I even got the summer pack they sent that to me and I didn't end up using any of those either I'm gonna try to be better about using them this year I'm gonna put them in my pocket here hopefully like I said this pocket is tight okay they're all not gonna fit in that pocket but I'm gonna put some of them in that pocket and then hopefully if they're in the forefront of my mind I'm more likely to use them but there are a lot of duplicates in this pack and we'll count them as we go through cuz it is ten dollars but I didn't actually count them yet so you have one perpetual calendar which I do like this one you have two three four fun lists so they say to brainstorm a seasonal bucket list or adventures and I think that's probably why they included four so you could do one per season I might use these we'll see I've been wanting to make a New York City bucket list before I actually move I'm not moving anytime soon but I am gonna move eventually and so I might use one of these for those so there's five then you have organization into cluttering so you get two of these and it's got like spaces to declutter and scheduling it with some different ideas I don't know if I'm actually gonna use those we'll see then you have cultivated self-care so you have one two of these so how can I love myself better ideas I feel most refreshed rest to recharge adventures and habits I'm not really sure if I'm gonna use these sheets either but they're cute so two there and then what to read next so book a book a list of books you want to read I can definitely see myself using this there's five books that I've read I've been tracking this on Goodreads this year but I like the idea of keeping a list in my power sheets there's eleven all right then we have cleaning schedules which I definitely should try and use these so once a month once a every day and once a season I like that there's little like checkboxes here but really you could only use these one month if you're gonna check them off I might use one to make like a masterless and then one like the month I implement it maybe I'm not sure so there's that's three there and then you have relationship tending so there's two of these so you have a friend a relationship that you want to tend to and how you'll tend to it and then some ideas we'll see I might use these I might use these let's see if there's there's enough from all of my siblings here I have seven siblings so we could do you know all seven of them that's a lot so there's another is fifteen then we have a financial check-in so there are four of those so I think maybe one per quarter and it's just sort of checking in with your assets and your liabilities and what your net worth is I think this is interesting because I do all of my budgeting on a spreadsheet I never do it written but I kind of like the idea of looking at my total net worth I don't know that I would like post this not like post on the internet but like keep it anywhere like I don't need to look at it I guess I guess it's just compare the month before the quarter before maybe I'm not sure ok so there's four of those looks like there might be 25 maybe so then we have go to meals breakfast there's lunch favorites enter favorites I really do like this page and should use this a little bit more such 20 and then we have two notes pages one so it's got like a teal flower pattern at the top and then we have goals at a glance so there are two of those so either there's 24 I miscounted cuz 24 seems like a weird number but I like these goals at a glance pages I like the idea of putting this like on my my desk so I can look at them I do however wish there were four of these because if I am gonna follow through and refresh every quarter then I wish I had four so that when I change it I can you know change this again if that makes sense so for ten dollars it's probably worth it the quality is nice and having you know the color printing and it's a smaller size now the one problem this year is that they lost a page for you actually add these on so last year when let me show you yeah this page was on its own you could put one of these on the back and then you can put another one here I also don't know how much I'm gonna actually put them here though I think for me I can see myself just more again keeping the ones that I like in the pocket so let's try and count these again and see if there are twenty fives no if there are 24 so just something to note it's ten dollars and you get 20 for wild card sheets okay number twelve are these pep-talk postcards for twelve dollars I am definitely getting these I got the postcards over the summer that they launched they sent me those they were a bunch of like vegetable puns and I really liked them I definitely want these I'm also really tempted though not to use these to mail to people but to like put like places for me like having motivational quotes for me because I bet that all the quotes are beautiful and I'm just really excited about those and in the last accessory this year is the gold card display set it's ten dollars and it does have its own page as well so it comes with twelve gold foil cards I am definitely getting these I'm really excited about these and my plan for them is each month to write like my main focus for the month whatever that is and put this up on my desk where I can see it every time I sit down at my desk so I like that it comes with a set of twelve I might actually get two sets and put one like on my fridge or on my mirror or at my desk at work or something else like for ten bucks and I'm sure the quality is great knowing their quality I know I've said that like 400 million times I definitely want to get at least one if not two sets of these okay and then the last accessory which is on its own page because it's not part of that bundle is a pullover so it's this cute like crewneck sweatshirt it says that it's super soft it's $40 it's got the logo on the front and then it's a new day on the back I probably I'm not gonna grab this just because trying to slim down the amount of clothing that I purchase and especially something that I probably won't wear all that often because I do like if I work from home maybe I would get and get something like this but I get up and go to work every day so I'm probably not gonna grab that at this time okay so let's quickly talk about launch day so on launch day if you order you will get one of these little stickers so it is it's like a pretty thick decal I think I'm gonna put it on one of my getty cups it's really pretty and it says cultivate what matters so every order placed on launch day will get this sticker and if you order over $100 you will get free shipping any any combination $100 of anything gets you free shipping then there are a couple bundles so the bundle that I definitely recommend is the best year bundle so it is $20 off so it is $95 you get the power sheets of your choice so any cover that you want you get the goal setting sticker book you get the pouch of your choice so any of the the patterns that we talked about you get the washi tape and you get the wild card page pack I think that this if this is your first time ordering power sheets I think that this is a great deal because really the power sheets in the sticker book I recommend like 100% and then I think the pouch is a great way to pulled your sticker book close to your power sheets so if this is this is the best bundle this bundle is limited quantity like the bundle discount is limited quantity especially in different color combination so if you aren't interested in getting this bundle and you're watching this before a launch day I highly recommend that you order it on launch day because the color combinations between the covers and the pouches will likely start to sell out the other bundle option they have you probably saw on this page is the I 1 at all bundle so it comes with one of every one of these accessories on this page there's 13 accessories every single one and again you get to pick the pouch that you want and then it also comes with a set of power sheets and you do get to pick the cover that you want and that is $40 off so it's 221 total typically the power sheets by themselves if you just want to get the power sheets on launch day they don't usually sell out on launch day they will sell out later in the year but they will update us on Instagram as launch day goes on with anything that is running low on stock and whether they plan to replenish it some things they do some things they don't so I recommend following their Instagram cultivate what matters to just be updated on what is close to being out of stock that is gonna be it those are the new power sheets and all of the new accessories and all the fun things that you can get I love I love the catalog I love the hardcover I'm so excited to dig into 2020 it is going to be the best year ever I think 2019 was such a growth year for me and just learning how to goal set and how to use the power sheets I'm so excited about some of the changes that they made and I'm ready to dig in but there's still there's still time in 2019 but I am ready for 2020s let me know in the comments which cover spoke to you the most if you're grabbing the power sheets or even if you're not which cover speaks you either through the aesthetics or through the words let me know in the comments I love hearing everybody's thoughts and which one they're drawn to if you have any other questions also feel free to leave those in the comments and I will answer those as soon as possible if you liked this video please give it a thumbs up if you're new here please click that subscribe button I upload new videos every Monday Wednesday and Friday thank you so much for watching happy planning so then it starts with it's just the dishes cheese I don't that sounds funny all right and then you have a bank a bank page I like the color a little bit better a little bit murder I can't talk I easily pay that pay that plays hat so it goes all the way around my power sheets will hold on so I'll flip through the sticker book the next couple pages are all about the goal-setting not this whole thing about goal-setting like and that's not what I meant they had some of the these some of the little it
