For me, the Bullet Journal feels a lot like a real world version of the "room of requirement" from Harry Potter. With a flip of a page, it becomes what you need it to be, when you need it. Plan, track, braindump, reflect, think, draw, journal, etc. It grows and develops with you. Great system! Great interview!
You are so spot on !
Love it!! So true.
I like your description of “room of requirement”!
being a nerd has its perks
Planning and organisation is such an underrated part of self-improvement. There's no point burning up all your fuel before you type your destination into Google Maps haha.... Brian Tracy said it perfectly: 'every minute spent planning saves 10 minutes in execution. This gives you a 1000% return on your time."
yessss
love the google maps analogy
you comment everywhere - bruh
Ryder carroll is such a humble and intelligent guy, i appreciate him so much. Thank you for creating and communicating your method which has been incredibly helpful for me❤
WOW! Initially when I saw the UA-cam video length, I clicked on it thinking ‘I don’t have time to sit down for 1.5 hours to watch this’. BUT I was wrong. Awesome interview. Will watch it again as I didn’t get it all the first time around. I am coming to the realization that my life is quite out of control and too random, and am starting the bujo practice. It seems like things are falling into place only after the first week of living this. I have been watching as many videos of Mr. Carroll’s as I have been able to find, and now have his book on order. Can’t wait to fully grasp and utilize this method! God bless!
As an avid person who always attempted but failed to keep an effective planner/journal, when I was first introduced to the bullet journal method, it blew my 'fixated' mindset. This method breathed and grew together with me. Discovering what layouts worked for me was a refreshing process. I am amazed at how Ryder was able to create a revolutionary movement when journaling was so overdone. This was a long interview that I thoroughly enjoyed listening to from start to end. Just like the bullet journal method itself, it was so simple, right on point, and deep. Thank you for sharing your method with the world!
Ali & Ryder in a podcast?? It’s like my two worlds finally collide! Love this conversation 😍
One of the most iironic things arising from the "planner community" is that people think bullet journals take too much time. Or need too much accessories with pens, washi, stickers, etc. When literally all it needs is a blank notebook, a pen and a simple list of notations. The "creative bullet journal" is anything, feels like junk journaling to me. Making spreads that look good but are usually not useful-- you can see this when these bullet journalers share their ornate spreads at the end of the year and they are hardly used or written on.
Yes! That also put me off. I started over and over again but it was too much work - or it looked too „bare“ compared to these spreads. Then I read Ryder‘s book and realized how minimalist the method originally was. Have used it consistently since.
I started using the BuJo method in late 2019. One piece at a time. Once I really got the hang of one piece, I was ready to n corporate the next thing. It’s made my life so much better. Since my early 20s, I’d been trying to create a planner type method that would guide me through my days. I wasn’t diagnosed with ADHD until my mid 40s. I was so happy and relieved to find the bullet journal method, especially since I hadn’t gotten anywhere with my own attempts at creating a method. I’m so grateful to Ryder Carroll.
As an early childhood educator who is quite passionate about bullet journal method and play in early years, this talk made me so happy! The ideas or concepts Mr Ryder shared are the same as to how I, or the play community, believes and views how children and people learn! And I owe my shift in perspective/belief/value (from from a traditional school setting to a play-centered philosophy) all because of bullet journal and play.
How I wish all people could also see the value of both bullet journal and play. It truly is life changing and because of them, I found my why (In sir Ken Robinson's term, I found my element). Not because I planned them, but because of the things I learned thru the process and journey. How I've come to learn how my brain works, getting familiar with being 'not perfect' and messy, having mistakes turn into lessons, how we need to reflect and that it's ok to change midway to be more intentional in why we're doing it, having structure but yet open for flexibility... are some of the life lessons I have and still am encountering thru bullet journaling and play.
So thank you so much for this talk! This gave me another boost and encouragement as to why play is just as (or might even be more) important than academics!
Ryder’s job hopping is so typical of ADD ! I’m not sure he’ll ever find what fulfills him long term because it’s the search that fulfills him, that dopamine rush when you think of a new project. I ended up being a project manager and getting into bullet journal naturally and got diagnosed years later, I see myself in what he says, I’m a consultant because I couldn’t stay in the same place for too long… I’m even changing my bullet journal like 4 times a year because it gets boring after a while and starting fresh is so good for the brain ! I have an impressive collection of half empty bujos ! 😂
Ali's podcast makes me start doing things I've not been inclined to, motivated to, wanted to. There's so much that happens in 1.5hrs. A before and after that shifts how I live everyday. I have a consistency problem all my life. And I started writing everyday without missing a day. It's not something i do anymore, it just became a part of me.
Now I guess bullet journaling is going to happen everyday now to keep me and my consistency on track and I'm sure I'm gonna end up feeling super good about it!
Ryder sounds more like a coach/ spiritual guru. Great talk Ali. This is what I really needed in my life at this moment. Thank you.
Lighthouses! I could never properly describe the approach to goals. I love this!
"values reveal themselves in the choices that we make, and the response we have to the choices that we make.
i have a choice how to respond. what's driving that choice, and that choice should be your values"
01:33:39 really liked that. good to write in the bullet journal 'headspace tools' collection.
Ali typing on an invisible typewriter during the interview is the most ADD thing ever!
As an Autist with combi ADD/ADHD, and OCD, I love the bullet journal method. However, a blank notebook does not work with me since I do what I call productive procrastination. Where I spend the time making the layout for hours, wasting whole days on it. It is not artistic, just some colored highlighters and a pen. So, I bought a planner from Japan that has monthly, weekly, and daily pages, along with an index already in the book. Now I just use the highlighters and pens on a daily basis. Do my Cal Newport time blocking in the weekly with post it film flags with the task written on them, and move them from week to week. I would use the bullet journal daily log on the daily pages, and any future planning could go in the monthly’s up to march of the next year. If it goes beyond March of the next year, I just put a post it on the inside cover of my planner and move on. So my yearly migration I catch the post it and move it into the new book on the correct month. Given my perfectionistic issues, I have these appointment types also on flags with permanent ink on them and place them on the correct date. That way I am not cancelling things with crossing it out. The weekly logs, like I said I do time blocking, and when the time has gone by, i write in what I actually did in those hours. I also can log my sleep day to day in these time logs. It works great for me since I am spending less time drawing out ‘perfect’ layouts.
I like your ideas! Particularly moving the tags along. It's like a teacher's planner but for your whole life 👍🏻
Great ideas! Thank you for sharing
Leuchturm notebooks are fabulous. I love using the Bullet Journal. Archival and numbered pages.....
The Bullet Journal Method is one of the most inspiring and useful books I ever read (and kept until this day). Thank you Ali for bringing Ryder Carroll to talk about it for us!
The point he stressed about making it a tool with very specific intentions resonated with me a lot. I've seen various threads on social media about bullet journalling. While I'm fascinated with the design, I don't think it works for me personally. I've been trying to find a system that suits me. Thanks for sharing it, it is very valuable!
Ryder‘s book helps a lot with that. You see the why behind it which helps to finetune it for your specific needs. A lot of the gorgeous spreads you see online (by others) for me felt „empty“ bec it didn‘t work for me
He seems a kind person. I really enjoyed listening to him
It's interesting to listen to Ali, he seems like he wants the bullet journal to be more complicated in order to be as useful as it truly is. Isn't that the beauty of it? The simplicity. I think maybe it takes an ADHD bringing to get the depth of the power of simplifying.
Love you guys. BuJo save my life, job. I had a stressful job, now it is an easy job. Words are short to describe how Carol and BuJo make me happy. ❤❤
Thank you so much for such an inspiring episode! I've been experimenting with Bullet Journal, but throughout watching this interview, I realize that I still need to sit down and experiment with how I can use this tool to serve my purpose. I've been lost in the forms rather than actually thinking and reflecting.
I just started bullet journaling 2 weeks ago and this is such a gem! Thank you Ali and Ryder ❤
Thank you, Ali for this interview. I found your questions really relevant. You make the topic reachable and go deep. The Bullet Journal Method is a way of life, and his author, Rider Carrol, a true philosopher, "a lover of wisdom"!
Absolutely love Ryder and what he said about rituals v. habits. His book & bujo method has really helped me change my mindset and the way I set my intentions.
I love the bullet journal method! Used it since August 2020!
Ali & Ryder Carroll, my two favorite ADS-Productivity-Experts! Love my Bullet-Journal! Looking forward to watching!

A great talk, just in time, I was questioning my planning rituals lol, thanks Ali for such a great episode, keep going, best of luck
These multi-hour long interviews are so RAW. It really dives deep into the person being interviewed. I hope to one day something similar.
Thank you for this really good podcast. I have learnt a lot and it is really inspiration to hear that you can do this simple.
Such a great and enlightening conversation 🤩 I saw the artistic side of bullet journal, and for sure I like them. But when I start diving into the minimalist but focus, goals, habit tracker ones I completely felt in love with it. And Ali's videos, took me back to the idea of starting mine.
Keep it simple and useful, beauty is a plus not a must❤
Great interview, was fun and very informative to listen to you two.
An excellent video - Ryder seems so calm, and has a beautiful soul - Unusually Ali never stops tapping and fidgeting. Has Ali got ADHD, or does he hate not being the centre of attention? In the end, I listened and not watched the video.
Great interview! Very good questions and the answers are so deep, but not too deep, and meaningful. Thank you for having him on. I hope Ryder has his own YT Channel. He would do very well.
There are so many 🤯 I heard from Ryder Carroll in this interview for which I am grateful because I have been at a stale place for quite some time now. Thank you 🙏
Started my first BuJo in Jan 2017 and it changed my whole life. Thank you.
Leuchtturm ... German for lighthouse 😊
Never knew that - thanks!
That lighthouse thing... mindblowing!
What a nice podcast/interview! I want to buy the book now haha. Thank you Ali!🤭
The Ultimate metod is more interesting for me. Whatever happens is for the best. Thank you so much, what always speak your truth.
Love the Storyworthy Book recommendation. Really good!
This video felt like it was talking to me... I love this method! I am a new fan of this methodology.
This is so cool!
I haven't thought I'd learn so much and how incredible the podcast will be. Every minute is thoroughly enjoyable and filled with wisdom! 💯 Recommended

Bullet journal reminds me of a low cost version of Franklin Quest system.
thank heavens for this method...and ryder's miss trunchbull aesthetic 👮🏻♀️
I remember when this first came out. A couple of days ago I told my husband how simplified it was until women got their hands on it and turned it into a complicated circus.
So true 😂 I know I did.
OMG already another episode! Amazing
I so need this, going watch this to improve my side hustles, thanks.
The Paper Mirror is a great analogy for BUJO
Awesome
Awesome Episode!
Ryder has such kind eyes lol 😅 random comment
Wow the camera quality at 01:32 until 01:50 is incredible. Is it a new lens or camera ? 🤓
Omg the french language example is exactly happened with me. In 2020 thro lock down i decided i want to learn french and till now i am procrastinating on it.. And right now i dunno i am just not motivatated to learn it and i still feel guilty for not achieveing that goal i put in 2020
"Time can be taken by you
or Taken from you."
Here’s a thought for Ryder…maybe he should consider doing collaboration courses, take a student/teacher/etc. Come up with bare bone structure they need to do the thing, then have maybe a month long course where the person taking it can check in daily to do the work alongside him with directions (think, turn to your daily page, set it up for today - date etc, turn to your monthly page. Basically all the steps he takes each and every day. My thought is that some of us (myself included) have trouble with “ambiguous” directions and need to either do the work first OR understand the why behind the work before we can actually do the work or else it’s a messy and defeating task. Others just need the accountability that a course could provide, some need to spend money on something to take it seriously, etc. It would be a BIG job, no doubt, especially since there would need to be multiple courses for the various life areas (I imagine that a teacher’s “basic” pages would be different than a student’s, etc), but it would make it make more sense for me, at least!
Have you read his book on bullet journaling? It helped me a lot to get the „why“ behind it and how to tweak the system for my needs.
Season 5 in full steam : ) New logo is also great!
It’s a method that beats the time❤
What do you think about BASB vs. Bullet Journal? As you used both of them, what are your insights about it and particular results by using both?
What's basb?
@@MrsG93building a second brain, by Tiago Forte
All high performers (entrepreneurs and management levels used some form of small or even a pocket journal that they would put their daily appointments, schedule, task lists, ideas for the past 60 years. With bullet points, check marks, x’s, arrows and cross throughs. They just didn’t call it a “Bullet” Journal. The women of bullet journaling, since Carrol came out with the bullet journal, have taken it to a whole new level with habit trackers and incorporated so many new cool features. The Bullet Journal was new to this generation. A question you should have asked is where did he see this method used before. He certainly didn’t invent the method, he invented the name.
This is absolutely superb. I had the privilege of reading something similar, and it was absolutely superb. "The Joy of Less: A Minimalist Living Guide" by Matthew Cove
I am not getting your video on bullet journaling Ali, is it deleted ??

Great podcast but... What do you mean by "I don't care about learning French" ? 😜
I see it as: Notion but on paper so it's less distracting but retains the same productivity boost and freedom

Thanks for having Ryder on however, I cannot subscribe to your channels because you make me nervous with talking too fast, tapping your fingers and tapping your feet. Ugh!
Watch in 1.5 Speed. Your welcome :)
Ali tapping his figures while listening to Ryder is very off putting. He looks bored at times!? Body language 101 should be a topic for you to cover Ali 🤣
This is Ali getting his body engaged while listening ...if you look he is 'typing'
It looks like he is realizing that he under prepared for this interview and is doing his best to save it - come on, we’ve all been that one group project member who didn’t do shit and thought a couple of smooth transitions would be enough LOL!
Or he is relaxing and using his regular body language to stay engaged
Ali you need to look at your guest more, there's too much, of you looking, too long, reading laptop and notes while your guest is speaking
The host speaks to fast.. ugh
No you didn't
Really - bullet journal has been around for years. He didn’t invent it he just used it and published it. I’ve used for years . I’m in my seventies so everybody don’t believe everything you hear
Ali looks bored
