Exactly what I needed - if you are on the fence, just buy it.
I have been using the Clever Fox dot grid journal for a long time, for the price, you cant beat the quality, especially the paper - rarely any bleeding, and only with excessive marker use (not just using a pen or highlighter). I was having a hard time keeping up with doing my layouts for my journal/planner so I decided it would take a load off to get something pre-formatted. I wanted something that allowed me to also be creative within the planner if I wanted but didn't put too much pressure on me to do so. I like the dot grid journal so much, and the format of this planner seemed to be exactly what I needed so I went for it.Came exactly as pictured and it's pretty perfect, I already have my 2020 set-up and ready to go. I like the life-goals aspects as well, though I haven't gotten to those pages just yet. Plus it came in a really cute box that I can store it safely in until I am ready to put it in my journal cover and use it. It also came with a bunch of cute stickers to help me set it up - though I did end up buying a bunch more to help me personalize my layouts a little more. My only complaint is that I wish it came with a bigger set of stickers because they are just perfectly matched to the journal lol. The dot grid pages in the back are perfect for tracking other things - I have spreads for birthdays, cleaning routines, bucket lists, and plant care.The customer service has been really proactive, and I am confident if I were to ever have an issue they would take it back and refund me or replace it.All in all a great purchase and I am a customer for life.

Beautifully designed planner!
Five stars! This planner is great. The cover is thick and sturdy. The material on the cover has soft silicone feel to it (best way I can think to suscribe it) that feels very nice. The pages have everything I could want. No cheesy quotes to be found anywhere(if you purchase planners frequently you know what a problem this is)! I got the blue thinking the red would disappoint. I almost regret it because the blue is quite beautiful in person. There is a small indent at the bottom of the front cover that looks like damage but it is barely noticeable and I have free returns if it did it bother me. For anyone wanting a quick rundown I’ll include my personal pros and cons. Although, honestly, it is day 1 and I had trouble finding any fault in this planner at all.Pros:- Sturdy, attractive, and simple hardcover. No gratuitous design.- Every page has a useful purpose , and is design to help you be your most productive! I can’t tell you how much the prompts help someone like me stay on track!-3 different integrated bookmarks and pen holder. No more searching for your place or digging in your bag for a pen!- Comes in a beautiful gift box along with a guide and stickers to make it a perfect gift!- Write in dates! No more wasted pages! I have lost so many great planners this way.-Back pocket to hold notes, stickers, and post it’s!Cons:-No proof of this, but the cover seems a bit more fragile then my normal planners I purchase. I tend to throw my planners from bag to bag. I worry it may get scratched up if I am not careful based on other reviews. I will just treat with care.- Small detail that doesn’t bother me, but worth a mention. On the weekly pages it is titled “Month & Year.” I am not sure if this was an oversight or not.- Stickers that were included do not fit in the back pocket so you can’t conveniently store them with you. I am someone who utilizes these so it personally was just a small “Awwww.....” moment.OVERALL this planner may be one of the best ones I have had. You can tell whoever has designed it has put a ton of thought into everything we need as users. In fact, I am pretty sure I read this planner was made after a lot of feedback was taken into considerations from their customers. I love that! I will be buying a ton more for all my friends. Thanks for designing such a lovely planner!

Beautiful planner. Just a couple of hiccups.
Planner looks awesome. It came beautifully packaged. The foiled stickers look amazing.The instruction booklet looks well thought out.The Rose gold cover looks and feels well made hope it holds up to being used.I absolutely love that this has a Monday start on the Month view and has 3 ribbon book marks.I have a couple of issues hence the 4 stars.The presentation box it cameIn was ripped along the bottom of the spine and on the inside. Everything is so beautiful this just spoilt it for giving as a gift.The sticker sheets are a hair to big to be kept in the back inside pocket. So will need to rethink how to carry them with me.Overall it’s a beautiful planner and I look forward to using it.

LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!
For whatever reason, Amazon recommended life planners to me, and I ended up buying this planner. I have written down my goals for the year and the micro-steps I need to take each quarter to achieve them, I have already achieved a few goals in 27 days, and I was so pumped up last weekend after having finished my taxes so far ahead of my usual schedule that I even got up at 7:30am on a Sunday--which was previously unthinkable--to start in on that day's goals! I have inspired 2 coworkers to buy the Premium planner so far (one of whom had just asked God for some guidance on making progress towards her aspirations). You cannot make me stop talking about planning, dreams and goals to whomever will listen, as I feel more inspired than I can express!! The most rewarding section (and the reason you want to get the Premium version) is the month-end review. I love writing down my "Wins" (big and small) in the month-end review section of the planner and feeling so self-actualized! I feel like a Clever Fox ambassador. :) The rose gold has a beautiful & feminine design and the thought-provoking questions sections in the beginning of the book are inspiring. I bought extra stickers, washi tape and rainbow glitter monthly tabs.

Beautiful and Worth the money! Lengthy review!!
I don't even know where to start with this planner. It is amazing, and fulfils everything I've been looking for in a planner for years - with more space and half the price! It is very thought out, and helps you thoroughly plan out your week, month, and life! I would like to point out: I have not been paid to review this, or received it for free - I'm just a satisfied customer with seemingly too much time on my hands.Let's start from the beginning, the journal itself has a beautiful, softcover with stunning colour, I got baby blue! (I loved it so much, I got my sisters one each in black and navy blue and all 3 were in amazing condition with bold colours!), it has 3 ribbon bookmarks, handy for saving you daily, monthly, and goals spreads, and a pen holder that is sturdy. The first layout is basically a life planner where you get to write about; "The vision for the life I want" and "What is my life purpose?" (not pictured), I am grateful for, my affirmations, my passions, and the skills/habits I want to learn/adopt. (all pictured above). It also gives you 2 blank pages to create a vision board!It also has 2 pages dedicated to goals of different life areas (pictured) with the option to break it into 3-monthly goals and mindmaps (also pictured)! Whenever I would try to find journals with these features, a lot of the time I would only find mediocre quality products for 40 - 70 pounds! So getting all of this, with large spaces to fill out what you want, for less than £30 was an absolute steal for me! The book also gives you undated monthly, weekly, and monthly reviews (pictured above) which give you unlimited options for breaking down you goals and tasks for the month and week ahead, there is also a habit tracker!! I may be alone in this, but the second I saw it had weekly habit trackers I was instantly sold!This book is great for those who already, or wish to, reflect and review their progress and goals. As previously mentioned, at the end of each month you have a spread to review how successful your month as been - includes biggest wins, life area satisfaction, lessons learned, how you'll improve, and more.The fact it is undated too really helps as I am someone who tends to break habits if my life gets too busy due to work or college, it gives you total freedom over when you want to use it.I've shown you my spread filled out as sometimes it is better to see for yourself than to hear.overall, 10/10 all round for this product! I will be ordering more when these run out!!

I’m sorry but just not worth the money....
I’ve really tried with this. I’ve written in a number of pages but I find the layout confusing and its very very time consuming.I’m sorry I wasted my money, but thats my fault and no one else’s.It obviously works for some people but not me I’m afraid. A very expensive scrap paper/shopping list book for me now.

Quality product and a reasonable price.
I’ve used similar journals such as Franklin Covey and TMI previously and was thinking of getting one of those when I saw this Clever Fox Planner. I was torn as to whether try this one or go for one of my previous journals. I read all the comments from satisfied customers which persuaded me to take a risk and get one. I’m very pleased that I did as the quality is outstanding. Whoever designed the system and thought through the presentation has hit the jackpot. It follows the Apple Corp Process of making a product exude value. I’m commencing studying for the Master in Business Administration and I’m counting on this system to keep me on focus. I’ve been using it for a month and am very pleased with its performance.

Why bullet journal when you can Clever Fox?
I started bullet journaling about five or six years ago and, while I love the concept, they were taking me waaaay too long to create myself, even just a simple version without all the fancy artwork I've seen people do in theirs on YouTube.Every year I'd tweak the way I created the pages from the year before, eliminating the stuff I thought I'd use but hadn't, adding new things, trying different layouts. I even sent away to America for James Clear's Habit Journal because I liked the dedicated habit tracking pages. But it was still too much graft to set up the diary pages. And it only had two bookmarks.I began to resent the amount of time I had to spend drawing these things up every December. I was trying to improve my productivity, fergawdsakes, so having to create the flippin' bullet journals seemed entirely counter-productive! And so began my search for the ideal pre-printed journal/planner...Most of the pre-printed ones I found had something off-putting about them. They were either too flowery, had stupid illustrations or naff typefaces, or the layouts lacked something one way or another. They weren't grown-up enough, mostly. I wanted something I wouldn't be embarrassed to open in a client meeting, essentially, but still had all the planning/logging/reflection aspects I like.When I looked at the page designs of this Clever Fox planner, it seemed to me like they'd been designed by someone who'd lived my journey and felt my pain. But, unlike me, they'd had the savvy to go out there and get their ideal planner made into a real thing. And for that I am truly grateful to them. I'm looking forward to the new year, when I can get this baby started!Everything about it is just really well thought out. The cover is sturdy and handsome, the paper is nice and thick, there are three bookmarks, the folder inside the back page isn't going to rip because the sides are made of a silky fabric, the sticker sets are more usable than any other stickers that have ever come with a diary/notebook I've had before. Some of them are purely decorative/inspirational, but that's quite good; the folks at Clever Fox have hit a good balance there, I think. And the amount of dotted blank pages at the back is really generous. It's nice and minimalist, it's clean, it's tidy, and you can jazz it up a bit if you so desire.So. That's that. A week to a fortnight of time saved every December by not having to sit with a pen and ruler for hours on end drawing up every week of the new year (and inevitably making annoying mistakes), when I'd rather be practising my guitar or watching Christmas movies on Netflix.In a nutshell: if you're anything like me, buy one of these. You won't be disappointed.

Great planner but lacks in areas
This on the whole is a good way to manage goals, break them down but it has it's faults, firstly it's not obvious there are quarterly goals sections and the stickers are not enough to cover the year for repeated tasks and you can't order replacements. This is also very American so stickers reflect that and its not general enough i.e recording gym sessions should be about recording exercise in general.All in all a nice concept but could be better executed.
