Transcript: Get Ahead of the Game with This Insane OneNote Calendar Template for Digital Planner 2025

New Year is just around the corner, and while I am preparing my digital planner for the coming new year in my OneNote, I thought I’d share my digital planner and OneNote calendar with all of you. Now at the end of this video, I will share with you how to download and set up this nice OneNote planner with monthly and weekly calendars. So let’s jump into my OneNote, and I’ll show you how it looks like.

This is my OneNote calendar, and I’ve already set it up. You see we have January calendar, February, March—all set up nicely over here. Keep watching, and at the end I’ll tell you how you can download this straight away. I already created or modified this template that I got from Sender Labs. You can just download it and set it up.

This is how it looks like—we’re going to set up January. Then we have this weekly planner, which I also created for you. Coming back to January, here you can set up your holiday and type in anything that you want. Now if you want to use this for your photo journal, you can do that as well.

For example, if you like to take photos, just click here, go to Pictures, and then from your file, you can put in any photo. It’ll fit right into this box nicely, and you can add on to that. Once you set it up on your desktop, you can do this. If you take photographs from your phone, you can just add the image right from your phone.

Let me show you a quick one. Let’s say, for example, I go to my phone OneNote and add the image here—you can see that I’ve added nice food photos I took yesterday. You can add the photo right into the calendar itself. It’s very useful to have your monthly calendar so you can plan your month on one page.

My recommendation is to set it up on your desktop, then you can use it on your mobile or tablet. Next, you have this weekly calendar. For example, if you want to do weekly planning, let me show you how. Let’s say I want to do weekly planning for Week 2. Every time, I don’t want to do it again and again.

Once you’ve set it up, what you can do is delete the old page, come over here, and go to Insert, then Find Page Templates. Go to Page Templates, and then click “Save current page as a template.” Put in a name—let’s say this is Week CL225—and then save it. It goes into your template section.

Now every week, when I want to add a new one, I just go Insert > Page Templates. If you can’t find it immediately, go to Page Templates again, and the window will appear. Then just click the template and it will show up. You can drag it in, and it becomes like a subfolder. Just drag it in and rename it to Week 2.

Then you can put in the dates—say, January 5 to 11. This is how you set it up for your weekly planning. Now if you want to do a daily journal or daily planning, you can do that too. Let me show you—this is my simple journal template that I’ve already set up. I can click on it like this.

Let’s say this is January 4. I combine my gratitude journal, intention and execution (what I plan to do for the day), journal thoughts, and my learning. These are simple prompts you can create on your own. Since I write daily, I want every page I add to automatically include this format.

To do this, just save the template. Then go to “Always use specific template,” and select your simple journal template. Once set up, every time I click to add a page, this will come up automatically. Then I can label it “Day 2,” and start writing. This is how you can set up your planner for 2025.

You have your monthly, weekly, and daily setup all in one. I hope this video shows you a simple digital planner you can use to organize your work and daily life. Now, to set it up, go to the link below and download the file. I’ve already created it for you—just go to my website and download it.

The file should have the extension .one (O-N-E). Once downloaded, double-click it, and you’ll see something like this. Open the section, and if you don’t have a journal notebook yet, right-click and move it. If you already have your own journal, you can move or copy it to a specific notebook.

You can also copy page by page. Just click, select the calendar, press Ctrl+C, then go to another section, add a page, and paste it. If your template is already set, you may want to select a blank page to paste into. Or you can redesign it. You can even move the calendar to the bottom of the page.

This is how you set it all up. Same goes for your weekly planner—I’ve already preset everything and it’s customizable. You can change everything to your own liking. Just go download it from my website, and I hope this helps you become more productive in the new year.
