Why Planner Peace Doesn't Exist!

Whether you are new to the planner world or a seasoned planner addict I'm sure you're familiar with search for #plannerpeace that gets talked about a ton in our planner community.  Planner peace:  the feeling of contentment from finding & using the planner that is absolutely perfect for you & your needs.
