I stick to a very simple bullet journal routine, basically I still use the original system as outlined by Ryder Carroll. Last year during the height of the pandemic, and being locked down, I switched to a weekly layout (that is, when I started back using my bujo), but since the start of 2021 I have gone back to dailies, because I have also jumped back into blogging more regularly and working on my business.
Here’s how it starts:
And here’s how it went
Every morning I write in the day and date in the left border, then add my to0do list to the right. I add the weather that day when I remember.
Basically all I need is my notebook, black pen, brush pen, ruler, and a pastel highlighter. It rarely gets more complicated than that.
How does your week go?
Love the simplicity of your planner, I found bullet journaling overwhelming and easy to get distracted with the decoration, artfulness of it. As an art journaler I found it didn’t work for me but I am definitely a planner with a crafterbrain. Delighted I found your blog on the Ultimate Blog Challenge today.
Welcome! Originally Bullet Journaling didn’t have any of the decorative, artistic aspect. All of that is fine, but it was also too overwhelming for me, so I stick to the basics.
I have started doing bullet journaling, but just in the weekly part of my day planner. At the end of the day, it helps to write down those things that I did get accomplished so that later, I can’t beat myself up about not doing enough!
Yep, I will also add the things that I’ve done. It gives a real perspective on what you have actually done!
I love how simple your planner is but you have everything needed in it.
Thanks! Yes, it’s my brain 🙂
