Rocketbook Panda Smart Reusable Planner, Undated Daily, Weekly & Monthly, For Motivational Journaling & Digital Organization, Executive Size 6x8.8, Teal

I was a little skeptical at first. I didn't trust that they would be truly eraseable. But I was wrong. I love them both! I've been using them for years! Here are the pros and cons for me: Pros - small enough to take with me everywhere but not too small to get lost (both are 6" x almost 9"); 3 month planning (the pandaplanner) and weekly planning (the fusion); ability to write out goals with milestones and timelines; eraseable for errors or when I need to add more to my schedule for certain days; enough lined pages to take notes when I can't have my phone with me; they have lasted me over 4 years; and are excellent organizational tools. Cons: if I use the pens' eraser too much, I cant write over that area fully; have to remember to use the cloth and water regularly in order to have the ink flow properly; sometimes if I used a deeply pigmented pen color, it doesn't erase completely and leaves like a shadow of the writing (pandaplanner); and I think I may need to buy another pandaplanner, possibly this year or next year, since I only use the deeply pigmented colors for my monthly planning by using different colors for personal (one color for mine and another color for other members of my family) and professional events. Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase of the Rocketbook Pandaplanner and Rocketbook Fusion!

I got this Rocketbook on a whim. I have the Executive lined version and like it for jotting down notes or Journaling but my Panda Planner gets daily use. Although it lacks a few categories I might like to see I am sure it offers some things others won't use. I try to utilize each area as much as I can. What I enjoy about it the most are the positivity prompts... 3 Things you are grateful for and 3 Things you are excited about. I use the To Do list the most. I also like logging my wins for the day and how I can improve. I also like the Weekly Review which let's you look over what you accomplished and what to start planning in the upcoming week. I got the Executive size in this notebook too and it has slight fewer entries than the larger version. I actually like this better because it doesn't become overwhelming. You get two weekly overviews, 6 days (one more would have been better but maybe you can combine the weekend). It offers three months which seems about perfect since I don't plan to far ahead and if I do it's on my digital calendar. I basically use this planner to remind myself what I need to get done in a week or on a particular day. This helps me to plan my days out so they don't become too overwhelming. I like being able to log exercise and habits for the week. Perhaps you are trying to get into a new routine. The focus is really on positive growth and improvement as well as keeping organized. I would say it's aim is self growth over business planning so keep that in mind when ordering. I found it has definitely helped me to keep organized and I have less anxiety not trying to remember everything I need to do when I can just jot it down. A huge plus are the blank pages in the back. I use these for making a weekly menu for dinner or to write down quick notes while I am on the phone. An excellent resource.

I have always had a very difficult time writing lists and keeping track of things I need to do everyday, I always have these great ideas and husband says "make a list!" and I never do. Or I write it down on a scrap of paper and it gets lost among many scraps of paper. I've also bought and tried many different planners, both physical and online and I never keep up with them. Then, I just feel bad for wasting money on a planner I never used when I find it have scribbled in 5 years later. The Rocketbook Panda Planner is THE planner for me. It prompts me to make a to do list and stick with it! It gives me space to jot down the random ideas and thoughts I have throughout the day. It gives me a 3 month calendar so I can see at a glance what appointments my family has upcoming. It has eliminated the random scraps of paper all over the house. Plus the executive size is easily thrown into a diaper bag or large purse for on the go notes. The absolute best part is that it is reusable! I can upload my planner pages and notes to the cloud (I use OneNote) and wipe down the page and start over again! This is perfect for the inevitable time where I forgot to plan my day for a few days or weeks at a time and find it again. I won't feel guilty if I lapse, I can just start over. If there was one feature I wish they would add to the Panda Planner, it would be to add just a few more blank pages to the back of the book. I like to use two pages for weekly shopping lists and it would be nice to have more than 3 extra pages beyond that. Otherwise, this is an awesome planner and completely worth it in my book!

Well, I'll be honest, I was a bit skeptical when my wife first told me about this Rocketbook Smart Reusable Notebook. You know, the idea of a notebook that can be erased and reused? It seemed too good to be true. But you know what? I gotta say, she was right. This thing is wonderful. I tend to think that notebooks are a bit of a hassle. You know, the constant need for new ones, the struggle to find a place to store them, and the feeling of waste when you finish one and have to toss it out. But this notebook, it's different. It's like a magic trick. You write, you wipe, you write again. It's almost like it's got a life of its own. I actually didn't believe her when she said it was reusable until I saw it in action. We used it for our weekly planning sessions, and I was amazed at how smoothly the pages worked. It's like it's been designed with the user in mind. The pages are crisp, the lines are straight, and it's just... it's just... well, it's just a notebook that works. Come to think of it, the layout is really thought-out too. The daily, weekly, and monthly pages are a nice touch. It's not just a notebook, it's a planner. It's like having a personal assistant in your pocket. I mean, who wouldn't want that? Now, I will say that the price point is a bit high for just a notebook. But, you know, when you consider the lifespan of this thing, it's practically a bargain. I mean, how many notebooks do you think you'd have to buy in the time this one lasts? It's like buying one notebook and getting a lifetime of use out of it. In my experience, the quality is top-notch. The pages are made of high-quality paper, and the ink seems to adhere well. I've even used it with different types of pens, and it's held up surprisingly well. So, if you're looking for a notebook that's not just a notebook, if you want something that's a bit special, I'd say give this Rocketbook a go. It's not just a purchase, it's an investment. And, you know, considering the environmental impact of disposable notebooks, it's also a responsible choice. All in all, it's a serious notebook with serious benefits. I'm glad I gave it a chance, and I can't wait to see how it works for us in the long run. If you're considering it, I say, go for it. You won't regret it.

I would love to be the kind of person who sets goals, makes schedules, starts every day reviewing their planner, sets intentions for the day and keeps theirs eyes on their goals. The truth is, I have probably a dozen paper planners and a few more digital planners, all of which have maybe a week's worth of days and routines written out. I buy undated planners because I know I can go back to them later and start over. They will all be finding new homes! I am currently taking part in a mindset mastermind and training. As a part of that, I am writing my goals out every day. I got a Rocketbook Fusion to keep from going through so much paper. I loved being able to reuse the pages and I expanded to taking meeting notes in the book. After a few weeks I got an email about the Panda Planner and took a look. It had the features I most loved from the planners I had purchased in the past -- a month view, a week view and a daily view, a place to write and monitor goals. Since I loved my Fusion so much, I decided to order the Panda Planner and give it a try. I am so glad I did! I have been making updating the planner a part of my daily routine. I've had it over a month and this is the longest I have used a planner of any kind. I love the layout and prompts. I love clearing the pages at the start of a new week or month. It's like clearing the slate -- what is over and done is gone. It's truly become a part of my daily routine. Since I had two of the Rocketbooks - Fusion and Panda Planner - I really wanted to be able to combine them. I got a lighter and softened the bent end on the spiral, pulled it out and then organized the page from both books into one and put them back together - just soften the end of the spiral and bend it back. This makes it the perfect daily planner, notes, goals solution for me.

2 Stars for Amazon giving me this not "like new mess", but 4 stars for the product itself. Complaint on top, details of the product farther down. Bought this as an open box item from Amazon, which was purported to be "like new", but the cover is scratched up and dirty, the pages are wiped clean but not very well in some cases, and it whoever used it last was a heavy writer, as I can see the indentations of past usage. That said, the planner organization and number of pages is great. I wish there was one more "weekly" page set so I could have last week, this week, and next week views at once. To use a notebook like this effectively getting some kind of divider tabs is a must. Otherwise it's great. Great tool for organizing a day and focusing efforts in time gated chunks. Do I wish this were a full letter size rather than executive size? Not sure... I see benefits of both, honestly and not sure which I'd rather yet. Page list: Annual planning (1) Monthly (3 double truck) - good quarterly focus Goals (6) - includes a guided journey to focus many interests into a few focused priorities with roadmap and milestone design guidance Weekly Review (2 double truck) Daily (7 sets of 2 pages each) - includes space for identifying priorities, tasks, meetings, notes, and reflection. Blank note taking pages (5) Tips: Go to the rocketbook website and look at the guide for getting the most out of your panda planner. It mostly is intuitive, but the guide is great for some of the other little features. Daily schedule: why do I need this when I have my Google/Outlook/digital calendar? If you're anything like me you get double scheduled all the time. At the end of my day, I find that writing out my schedule for tomorrow helps me prioritize which meetings I'll actually attend and make sure I write in time for each priority block I need. I'm more mindful about my day this way! I mentioned above, but goodness gracious buy yourself some tabs/dividers. But be careful about what kinds that might be annoying to write over or stickies that could ruin your pages.

I am an adult with ADHD and have tried every type of planner and method under the sun with no avail -- Day Planner, GTD, Franklin Covey, etc. I wanted something that was detailed enough for a busy work schedule where meetings could take place literally from 5 am to 7 pm. I also needed something to capture tasks, serve as a notebook and give me at-a-glance look at the week and months. The TL;DR version is -- It has lots of ways to prod you to be mindful of your life and help you organize it, but most importantly -- its erasable and forgiving if you just need to reboot and start over. I am also big on writing things down vs. going 100% digital. I tested out the print version of the Panda planner and would stick with it for a week or two before that voice in my head said, "You got this! You don't need this!" Then chaos ensued! Missed deadlines, scrambling at the last minute to get something done you forgot to write down, being late or missing a meeting...my personal, work and family life all out of whack and not doing any of those well. I knew I needed to have the planner be more than a calendar and to-do list. I needed it to help me get a grasp on all aspects of my life. I went down the rabbit hole of online reviews, Google searches and reading on ADHD forums. A lot of people sang the praises of bullet journals and while I love colors and customization...I did not want to have that pressure on my shoulders --- it would not end well! I knew about Rocketbook and Panda, but not the Rocketbook Panda. I started to look at it and went down that rabbit hole too. After a week of "should I or shouldn't I" I was getting nowhere fast. I just threw it in my cart with some pens and said lets go! So far I like it. I have not used it consistently or used ALL the functions. But I love that you can just erase the page and you don't have the guilt of looking at a piece of paper from a month ago reminding you about your lack of use! Here is what I love so far: * Its sturdy even though there aren't a lot of pages. * Monthly pages so you can plot things out and erase if things change *Weekly pages -- I love these! I really use the weekly and daily pages now and this helps me think out the week ahead. It has places to jot down wins, lessons learned, etc. with room for tasks and weekly overview. * Daily pages -- Exactly what I wanted. A schedule, priorities, tasks and some things to help train you to reflect on the day ahead and recap at the end. * Everything and Everything page -- Has categories to just jot down things you want to do in five categories * Goals -- first off, I hate personal goals. I also hate writing a resume so reflecting on yourself can be tough, but the book is constantly prodding you to set goals, metrics and milestones -- plus a couple of key habits you want to start (...like using this book!) * Motivation -- Really getting you to think about the why and the how to goals -- helps you commit and plan! * Plank pages -- I started using these for notes and love it, but I think I could use a few more pages as I tend to work on several projects or clients at the same time and might roll into back-to-back-to-back meetings. The Pros definitely outweigh the Cons, but there are a few things that could be better. * More monthly pages -- you only get four and some people like more, It really doesn't bother me. * Light shading -- the Panda planner uses light shading to separate areas of the planner and for page lines and grid dots and in some areas is way too light. I can barely see the lines and dots on the blank pages. * More blank pages -- I haven't run out yet and tend to put off things and will come a time where I will have to either erase or have to use another notebook when it comes to scanning and uploading to the app * Pen choice (but to be fair, this isn't Rocketbook it Pilot) -- there are a lot of pens to choose. When it comes to writing on paper, I prefer a fine line so a fineliner or 0.5mm is my go too. Rocket paper is reusable and is slick, so much different than paper. The pen with it is OK and the Frixion Clickers I got are really fine, sometimes too fine. I'm going to experiment with the Fineliner Markers and see how this goes.

Yes, I'm left handed, and yes, the ink is slow to dry - I use an index card and write a bit slower, then cover the mostly dry ink as I write. It is an issue, manageable for me and the overall product is worth it. I've used the Panda planner daily for several years now, and I ordered a rocketbook notebook to use for personal kanban and small postit notes on the go - I ended up using the notebook for, well, notes, not for postits and after oreering and trying the Panda planner version of a rocketbook, I've switched to this. Being able to scan each day as it completes plus goals and monthly plus notes, and reuse at will, make the ink issue worth workign through. I added a leather cover and a flip notebook on one side, this planner on the other as my daily working notes and planner.
