2026 Planner - Paper to Digital: Let's get started

Today's video is about helping you get started with converting to Digital planning and giving you some inspiration or ideas of things you can create. Start with what works for you on paper and convert it to a digital page in OneNote. Then as you learn new things or your needs change you can easily implement those changes into your planner pages or sections. Leave behind what no longer works and add the new to help you live the life you have now. Creating your own life management tool in OneNote is easier than you may think. Hi, I’m Crystal. Welcome to a Crystal Clear Life where we talk about planning, organizing and living a more simplified life. I use Microsoft OneNote 365 on my PC to create functional and decorative planners and notebooks to help keep my life organized. OneNote is awesome because it crosses all platforms so I can use it on my desktop PC, my iPad and my Android phone. That way I am never without my planner! Hope you enjoy.
