I don't like recording reoccurring tasks in my BuJo, specifically home tasks. I also need reminders for that stuff, so I have an app that reminds me to clean the toilet regularly instead of rewriting the boring same old task over and over. Laundry is the exception though!
Cool video! I love how we are all so different! I really enjoy looking back and seeing my edits (additions, scratch-outs, etc) in my journals and calendars. The used and cozy look really appeals to me and I like the little reminders of past-Robin.
I love this recipe collection idea. I have recipes all over the place and the fact that you both can access them and change accordingly! I’m so going to try this. I’ve been printing it out and the paper stack got wet and everything messed up. We each have our favs too that we discover that the other doesn’t know how to cook so having everything in one place would be awesome.
I have a separate reading journal obvs, but also a separate travel journal; I don't like to record too much of my travel in my actual journal, partially because I like having it all together, and partially because I don't want to have to take into account how many pages I'm using (also having my travel spreads in a travellers notebook is v satisfying). (also im an undercover (nosy) wizard)
One thing I’ve developed is a hybrid system for finances. I have an app I use (in case I don’t feel like writing), but I copy the information from there to my journal because I take more responsibility when I have to face the numbers by hand. 😂 I still let the app do calculations, though.
I flip back and forth from digital to physical. I definitely find digital best for on the go. I have 3 kids. When we have doctor appointments, it makes the whole situation way less chaotic if I’m not flipping through pages. 😬
I also separated some categories to keep out of my Journal. I couldn't keep 'the trackers' (habbit tracker, meditation tracker, etc), for example, so I put an app on my phone just for that. For finances, I use the app of the bank where I have an account. There are things that are easier to organize without writing them down. I love your videos! Kisses, from a Brazilian subscriber! 🇧🇷🇧🇷
Cool that your bank has an app you can keep track of your finances with! Ours has one to access our account info and make transfers, but that’s about it 😝
I also do all my financial tracking in Excel! And for me the biggest thing I DON'T do in my bullet journal is ... anything work-related. I have a giant spiral notebook that lays flat where I write all my work to-do lists and Outlook for my work calendar; my nicer bullet journal is only for non-work planning. Which means that my bullet journal is a little sparse sometimes, but it really doesn't work well for me to combine work and non-work.
I love using Notion for my reading log. I have created a wonderful Series Tracker, To Read lists (including locations of all the books I want to read - e.g. my shelf, library, Audible etc) and challenges and goals. I love having all this information in one place that I can easily search and view.
I do SO MUCH writing by hand it really doesn’t make sense to try and jam everything into my bujo. Plus, I’m old and have had some of my hobbies for a good many decades now, so the sheer volume of information is just not well suited to bujo storage. I did adapt the bujo style indexing system for use with the wire bound journals I use to keep track of recipes for regular use. Being able to flip quickly to the precise notes I need has been a huge help. I also keep business and household records in a way that simplifies tax season, because it’s easier and that’s what my dad always did.
Totally with you on the recipes. As much as i love a cute handwritten spread, bringing a journal into the kitchen is a no no. Also.... Little shout-out to Vogel being a fellow lefty 😊
I don't lesson plan in my paper planner-- I just use a Google Doc. Shareability, linking, changeability. Easy to pull up previous years' plans for reference.
Oooh this found me at an interesting crossroads with my bullet journalling! I've just been wondering about what I want to continue using my bullet journal for, given I struggle to keep up with it as a daily/weekly organiser, especially with not having the spoons to keep up with the weekly/monthly spread making? Its also really interesting that you mention about content planning too, and not wanting to store long-term stuff in your bujo? I feel like for me, which might be because of my AuDHD brain, I often get an 'out of sight out of mind' thing with stuff in my bujo? I'll plan stuff or write stuff out, then forget to go back and check things - especially when you finish a journal altogether and start a new one! I'm starting to feel like overall my bujo might work better basically as a scrapbook - a place to retrospectively track and store stuff/brain dump stuff, if that makes sense? 🤔😊
Makes sense to me 👏 and cool to hear about what you’ve been thinking about for it. I feel like a lot of people (especially those who end up “giving up” bullet journaling) are kinda on autopilot with it, and don’t give themselves the time to reflect on what is or isn’t working 🤔 so it’s great to see your thought process 😄
I don’t write my recurring morning, afternoon, and evening routines or my cleaning schedule in my Bujo either. I use the Flylady app on my phone to tack my daily, weekly, and zone cleaning. It’s free! 😊
I agree with almost all of your subjects you don’t use your Bujo for. I do my budget in excel. Although I make some notes in my bullet journal, like monthly summaries or notes where I have to call the bank. Question: where do you log in your reading? That is the single most annoying thing I haven’t figured out. I use Goodreads, journals and my Bujo. I don’t need to “journal” extensive notes but I’d like a place to put some notes about the characters. I don’t want to duplicate Goodreads but I still want “something” other than what I’m doing!!
I have a reading journal (which I also capture other story formats in) that I use as a record of my reading. It has things like the reading challenges I’m doing, a summary of my reads, and little blurbs about my thoughts for them 😊 we have some videos on the channel that show how I set it up and work in it 👌
I don't financially plan in my notebook. Sometimes I'll do calculations but investing In YNAB (you need a budget) means I don't have to write down my actual budget. I also recently stopped tracking my workouts in detail. I used to write down the body parts, location, and whether it was a video or not. Just too much. Now I just note or check off that I worked out and that's it.
Can totally understand changing it up because writing things out felt too laborious 😝 I’m always very impressed with people who keep such detailed records of their workouts 👏
I have a layout of the 5 tasks that I'm trying to make a habit, and making spots to put an X for them. I want these to be so automated, it's not even funny. I've done this for two months. It's working pretty great
Do you have a video about your digital planning? I'm curious about it. I have a calendar on the fridge for family events, but it gets really messy. Maybe a digital calendar that we can easily share is better 🤔 🤗❤️
I talk more about my digital planning tools in ua-cam.com/video/u0hdT-H7q-g/v-deo.html but it's been quiiiiite a while since I did any kind of digital planning space walkthrough 🤔 Something I could look into remedying!
I always live in fear of the recipe's page being deleted (I'm from the geocities era, after all. 😆), so I highlight/copy/paste into a word document and save that in multiple places, or print it out. 😉
Fair 👏 one of the nice things about our OneNote set up is that we can export pages as PDFs so it’s very nice and easy to share with friends and family if they like a recipe we make for them, or save back up copies 👌
@@JashiiCorrin Ooo. The PDF export is a great option! I'm still on the fence about making a "safe for me" recipe book, but I also have a small book shelf and a book stand in my kitchen for such things. 😉 I use it often when making pizza dough or bread.
I find that trial and error works best for that, for me at least 😝 there are even some things that I’ll try in multiple ways before finding the style that actually helps for the project in mind 👌
For me, it's keeping track of all my daily/weekly/monthly tasks and projects 😊 That and a creativity outlet to do some decoration in. Won't use it if it doesn't look nice 😂

Nice 👌 I feel like I’d benefit from a similar system with the reminders
I like this idea, because I definitely need reminders! 😅 What’s that app you use?
I use the finch app for stuff like this

I feel the same!
Glad to hear that there definitely are people who like those kinda of things 😄💜 heck yeah for planner diversity 💪
Totally agree on going digital for financial planning.
Just a lot easier in my opinion 😝
@@JashiiCorrin until someone invents a paper notebook that can do adding up! 🤣
I use Notion for my content planning, too. It’s great for storing everything that has to do with my channel.
Agreed 👏 Notion is such a powerful tool. I wanna see how I can use it better / more 👀
I love this recipe collection idea. I have recipes all over the place and the fact that you both can access them and change accordingly! I’m so going to try this. I’ve been printing it out and the paper stack got wet and everything messed up. We each have our favs too that we discover that the other doesn’t know how to cook so having everything in one place would be awesome.
It’s been really helpful, yeah 😄 we can also put “tags” on our favourites so we can search by those for meal planning purposes 🤙

Aww yiss 🥳 wizard team! 💪 I do love the look of people’s travel journals, I’ve just found them hard to keep myself 😝
Great video and showing how you can bullet journal without it having to be all or nothing. 👏
Thanks Mark! 😄💜
Yey! Friday fun! OMG Vogels pizza just threw my dinner plans off completely. As soon as I get home, I'm getting Pizza. XD

Sewing patterns are stored in Docs for all the pdfs, and organised in Sheets by clothing type
Smart system! 💪💜
I'm an undercover wizard! LOL Annnnd, there's nothing budget-related in my BuJo because I use YNAB.
I don't lesson plan in my paper planner-- I just use a Google Doc. Shareability, linking, changeability. Easy to pull up previous years' plans for reference.
100% can understand why you'd prefer Google Docs for that, yeah 😝

Period tracking and work tasks as I use apps for them, I don’t do bullet journaling on
