Planning my day, with my Bullet Journal
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 лют 2016
- I've muddled through another video! This one is planning a day (for demo purposes only) in my Filofax using the bullet journal. I also share my @Agenda pages. Hopefully you can find something useful here, only incorporate what makes sense for you.
Reminder, my grid Bullet Journal pages are the free download from www.mylifeallinoneplace.com.

Thanks for watching!!!
I bought my first filofax 25 years ago and had been using it with various degrees of productivity over the years UNTILLL I somehow stumbled onto the planner community (how did I not know this existed???). Wow have I been totally doing it wrong, or at least superficially. I spent several long hours at work (shhhhh) watching videos about planning and yours have heloed me more than anyone. Seriously. I am no longer an indefinite procrastinator. This happened almost overnight after this video. I mourn the many lost years of productivity from having not found you sooner.. THANK YOU!
Nancy Gwillym Thank you SO much for your comment!!!! That was so very sweet and I’m beyond thrilled that it helped!! Thanks for watching! =)
Absolutely *fantastic* advice!!
OMG... So incredibly honored Carie! I binge watch your videos and if a new one gets posted; I usually drop what I'm doing to go watch. Thank you!!!!!!
+Carie Harling I totally agree, and I'm with Melanie in sharing how I binge watch your videos, even if I've seen them before!
+Addicted 2 Planning I have a Carie Harling Marathon playlist. All new videos go on it and there are days that I watch from beginning to end lol.
I love how you've incorporated a bullet journal into rings. New subbie, keep up the excellent videos! :D
+BusyMomGoingCrazy she's so awesome right?! Thanks!!!
Girl, your videos just keep getting better! This is officially on my list of best planning/filofax videos EVER!! The @agenda pages are pure genuis!! And the 3-tip reveal?! Clever, concise, and undoubtedly memorable! The fact that you make your planning/planner fun and functional with a decided emphasis on functional is so reassuring to me because the majority of planner images and media seem to be of the Mary Poppins persuasion..."practically perfect in every way" which can lead to planner discontent, planner envy, and ultimately, planner fail. Your videos give me the permission to make planning and productivity the priorities. Kinda like keeping first things first, then adding the fun in bits and pieces without distracting from the primary purpose. (Whew! How in the world did I put so many "p's" in one comment?!) Anyway, thank you, thank you! And please keep them coming!
Wow Tammy!!! What wonderful comments!!! I really appreciate the time you took to share all of that; AND am so flattered that it's coming from a planner video veteran! Thank you, thank you!!!!
Thank you for your explanation about how to use an agenda. It's the part of GTD to which I've paid the least attention and have never used, but you've shown how valuable it can be. I only really became interested in bullet journaling when someone showed how it solved some of the problems I have with GTD, so I'm very grateful for your videos. I shall be watching them again before I get set up and probably afterwards as well. I hope you decide to share more about how you make it work.
+April Munday thank you! Very kind words, and I hope it was helpful!! :)
Awesome! Love how you put it all together. Thanks so much for sharing.
Thank you so much for the ideas! I think the daily pages were exactly what I needed to complete my GTD system.
Right?! As much as I like the waiting for and someday/maybe lists... The next actions list didn't get it done for me... :) Thanks for watching!
+Addicted 2 Planning oh my gosh, me too! And I couldn't put my finger on what was wrong.
I laughed out loud when you discussed rule no.3. "I can't write it down because I don't have the right pen". That was the old me. I'm less of a perfectionist now and I got some more pens. So many great ideas in this video and it was good to see the planning process in action. Thanks!
You do not have to apologize for a long video, because this was filled with great ideas and I am looking forward to your next one! :)
Thank you!!!
Genius! I watch a lot of planning videos and never heard anyone so clearly state the difference between a task and project. Using a verb as the first word in a task is brilliant and I will put that into practice immediately. It has me wanting to rush to my Hobonichi to review what I've written - to sort out my tasks vs. projects. Thanks for the great tip.
randykite thank you!!! I often have to stop and think. Usually when something isn't getting done, it's because I was vague about the next step. The verb definitely helps me. :)
Thank you so much for this video. Please keep your videos coming. I'd love to see one of those cute bookmark videos from your first one! :)
I wish I could post the link to the awesome video that showed me.... I'll see if I can incorporate into a future video. :)
I support the things you do so much- you are doing great videos- helpful and nice and you are so amazing. Thank you I really appreciate your videos
Awe! Thank you Neele!! I know I'm due for another one, I just want to make sure that it's relevant and useful. :) Thanks for watching!!
I just found this video, thank you for posting. I appreciate someone who uses their planner to be productive. You shared so much useful information.
Thank you!!!!
I enjoyed seeing how you have done your planning............I love it..........thanks
Thank you Cathy!!! ☺️
Excellent vid full of original content. I thoroughly enjoyed it. I only just started mu BUJO last month and have changed 3 times from a fieldnotes, to a midori, and now, back to my FC Compact. I think this last one will stick, especially since seeing your format. Please keep up the vids. You are a gifted speaker and give clear and doable instructions and suggestions!
That was an excellent, excellent video! Thanks for sharing your ideas!
😊 thank YOU for watching!!
That @agenda tip is SO helpful. Using that for work now and I can tell its going to help me be so much more prepared when I talk to different people. And to have something to go back and reference will be SO helpful. Thanks for the amazing tip
Mich Mash thank you!!! It saves me so often. :)
i've only just started bullet journalling, after thinking about it for a long time. this is the first video i've seen by someone with a BUSY life. thank you. other bullet journallers that upload videos seem to spend their lives just vlogging and counting instagram followers...
offthehook1001 thank you!! And I still could do better!! :) life is crazy!!
This is a brilliant video!!! An amazing number of really valuable tips and clearly well planned and well thought out in advance. If you ever feel unsure about your skills, please note that you have 2 videos and over 500 subscribers (including me)!!! Thank you very much for this (and all the future ones lol).
Also, no need to apologise for the length - there was no fluff - just concentrated goodness and so worth every minute ;)
Alice P. Wow! What a wonderfully supportive comment. Thank you SO much for your kind words. :)
Lots of nuggets for me! Watched it once and love it so much I am going back to watch and take notes! Thank you and keep them coming.
Thanks for watching!!!
AMAZING!!! Your methods planning & organizing are fantastic!! I am definitely going to be incorporating many of your strategies into my daily planning. I'll probably have to watch this 5 more times to get it all down but oh so worth it!!! I've watched countless videos on functional but fun ways to plan and yours is BY FAR the best I've come across! Hope you are willing to continue to share more of your ideas & even new ones you might be trying out! Thank you for sharing!!!
Madelynn Dorsey thank you for your kind comment AND for watching! I'm due for a new video.... ;)
This was such a good video - I just love the functionality of your planner. It was so helpful
Vintage Touch yay!! Thank you!! :)
Thanks this was really helpful! And the way you revealed the 3 rules was brilliant! The lack of forward planning capabilities is what made me choose a planner over a more traditional bullet journal, but on some days I run out of space for tasks. Lots of good food for thought with your system.
Thanks Sherri! I would have liked to get all fancy and have images appear on the screen, I'm just not there with my video editing skills yet. 😂
This was amazing! One of my favourite planner vids! I'm so going to adopt the @agenda page especially as I have so many meetings regarding my children.
Yay!!! I'm glad it was informative; I hope you find them as helpful as I do! :)
OMG! I appreciate this video so much! You've given me some great ideas. Thank you, and please do more.
Thank you!!!
Your videos are fabulous. I've learned so much. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you!! That's so wonderful to hear!! :)
Thanks for sharing! I got some great ideas that I will incorporate in mine. I just purchased a personal planner and have yet to read my GTD book (on my to-do list). Love the agenda sheet!!!!
Yay! Glad it helps!! GTD is awesome. :)
I love functional planning. I am enjoying your vides 😍
I love your handwriting! And you have good ideas with your bullet journal. I love it
Amanda Rae =) Thanks for watching!!
You are so quirky. :) Thank you for using so much detail and making the point on using verbs etc in tasks! x
Satania Jade Rowland. Lol. Thank you!
love your tips! keep going!
Great job! Love it. You definitely gave me a lot of great information to take with me to work.
Thank you; awesome!!
I love your videos and your planning system!
Thank you!!
Thanks for the info! I've already implemented my @agenda pages this morning - love that. Simple technique but I think will be very effective in improving my meeting documentation! Thank u!!!!!
That's awesome!!!
Thank you so much for this video. I really enjoyed it and now know a lot more about bullet journaling. I appreciate you!
Thank you for watching!!
This was a great videom so helpful for figuring out how to bullet journal in a Filofax! I just can't do a day on 1 page, so this should really help to get things done on busy days! (:
Thank you! I really learned a lot and hope you will do more videos on planning and BuJo. This is practical and feels like something that can be accomplished!
Thank you!! :)
I'm new to bullet journaling, this really helps!
Keep them coming!
Vicki
Awesome!! Welcome!!!!
@Agenda, brilliant! Thank you.
Yay! Not totally my idea... But it increases my organization tenfold!!! :). I hope it works for you!
This was very helpful and I took away a lot of things I'd like to incorporate into my system. Just subscribed and looking forward to new videos! Thx for taking the time to share. :)
Thank you!!
I found several 'nuggets'. Thank you for sharing your clever system!
Dorothee Mackenbach yay! Thank you for watching!
Thank you. I suggest you use the levers to open your rings so that they won't get damaged over time.
Thank you for the great advice. :)
One Of The Best videos for us visual learners👍👍 I've watched it a couple of times...btw, you do great on your videos!!!
Thank you!!!!!
Such a great video! I love your handwriting - even when you feel like it‘s messy - I think it‘s awesome. You‘re doing such a good job with these videos and you are very inspiring. Thank you for sharing your Bullet Journaling knowledge with us. Best wishes from Iceland! :)
Angela Johannesdottir thanks Angela!!! :)
Absolutely love your videos! I'm off to find you on IG now! ☺️ I am such a fan of functional planning and you do it so beautifully! I had a very similar set up before I found out I wanted my GTD system separate from my bujo-esque system! Love to see more wonderful content from you...I could binge on your videos all day! 💛💛
Christine M awe!! Thank you!!!! :)
I know I need a new video; just want to make sure it's helpful & relevant.
Addicted 2 Planning I'm sure even an update of your current system, would be much welcomed to your fans ☺️! I just realized...I subscribed to your channel months ago...and that "similar set up" I mentioned was clearly and utterly inspired by you!!! 😂. Looking back at my IG posts of my previous set up, I remember I was eagerly seeking inspo on how to do a bujo with a ringed binder...& became clearly influenced by your style! It's amazing how we all borrow from the creativity of each other, & one thing I truly admired by you (aside from your planning style!) is how readily you attribute credit where it is due! 💛💛. Thank you for the reply!
Christine M just saw this... thank you for such a sweet comment! I'll gear up to do an update. :)
Fabulous video plus I love your manicure! I'm just starting a 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 ring binder bullet journal and your suggestions will really save me a lot of time getting up to speed. Thanks for a very worthwhile "long video" that could have gone on longer in my book.
Caroline Honse awe thanks!! I was in an A5 for most of my life.... :). I'm glad it was helpful!! Thank you for watching!
Addicted 2 Planning please do more videos as new hacks abd refinements pop up.
love the vanishing point. it's on my wishlist :)
Great choice! It was on mine too and it was under the Christmas tree! I hope you get yours too...!
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS! I've been in a TN for a couple of months now, but seeing this makes me want to go back to my rings! I love your process! Thank you for sharing! I can't wait for more videos now. (PS referred by Grace at A Graceful World channel, and then also recommended by Carie via Grace!)
Awe!!! Thank you!!!! 😊
This is a great video on Bullet Journalling. So very very helpful! Thank you for sharing :)
Kate K Thank YOU for watching!! :)
Thank you! This was very helpful. I'm just getting started with Bullet Journaling and my "over-preparing", OCD nature makes it difficult to get started. I understand the concepts, but seeing a mock real-time setup has helped me grasp the method. Though I like the idea of just turning to a new page if you don't like how you've set something up in a hardbound journal, I'm drawn to the flexibility of a ring binder and the ability to remove a page if I mess up. I'm trying a hardbound first to see if it can push me to let go of perfection and enjoy function.
Carol Melancon Yes! It's so hard, I know... but embrace it all. Be you... we're all guilty with OCD and perfectionism... but love what you make!! Play in whatever notebooks until you find what works for you. :)
Just found this video... Thanks for the great tip on the @Agenda's. I will be incorporating this in my work bullet journal. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you
great tips! going to utilise some of the ideas!
This was one was actually very good! I pref the pauses and the explaining and not the shuffling as I mentioned before...its just me i guess! But this was really very useful to watch
S K thank you! The shuffling is because I'm nervous there's confidential stuff on the page... :)
Hi, I'm not sure if you're still making videos but I'm really enjoying them. I hope you are doing well, greetings from London, UK! :)
Harpsichoré hello in the U.K.!!! Thank you for your comment. I haven't made one in so long. Need to come up with content I think people would wAnt to see. Any requests? :)
I love this video! so helpful!
Mandy Alley thank you Mandy!!
Thank you for your wonderful videos. Love the agenda pages. Please tell us again about the Filofax. I have looked online trying to find it. I really like the planner notebook style. Where do you get the pages for your Filofax, etc. Would you also do a video on your signifiers? If you wouldn't mind? You are wonderful! Love your sweet, sweet unassuming way of explaining things! AND your cute giggle! I am a retired teacher and you explain everything so easily. So glad I found you on UA-cam! Sorry this is so long.
Thanks Sharon for such kind words!! My planner is a personal size Original Filofax in Pillarbox Red... I ordered it off Amazon. :)
The printed inserts are from DIYFISH on Etsy (personal size :: v3s1... download), and the grid is free download from Ray Blake www.mylifeallinoneplace.com. (All links are in the description of my first video). I print everything on 28lbs paper. I will add signifier video to my list ideas! :). I'm so glad you found it helpful. :)
I find your video very helpful. Hopefully I can incorporate some your tips in my happy planner.....😳😀
Thanks Stacia!!
hello! luv your videos!!!! please do mooooooreeeeee! so much handy tips und ideas! wow!
best regards!
😊
Katja W awe!! Thank YOU for watching!! :)
Great ideas! Esp the @agenda page! I could use a few of those during my day. Thank you! 😊
Ya! I hope they are helpful
Awesome video!!! I love YNAB too!!! I cannot wait to start @agenda pages and verbs before tasks!! Excellent tips!! Thank you!!
Yay YNAB!!! Birds of a feather, right? :)
I too am a YNABer. It revolutionized my budget!
+randykite lol!!! YNAB is so awesome. I haven't upgraded... Have you?
+Addicted 2 Planning Yes I have. I love that I can access my account from any computer, but am still getting over the switch to the subscription model. As time goes on, I am getting used to it and settling in. In true YNAB style, I paid the annual subscription (to save money) then put it in my monthly budget to save for next year.
+randykite ya, I'm struggling with the subscription model... In true YNAB fashion - you've already budgeted... So awesome. 👍🏻
Thank you, Melanie. Brilliant video. Loved the Top Three and how you use your filofax as a bullet journal. Answered many questions for me. You are a natural at this. Where have you been hiding? ;) More videos please. They are excellent and very informative. Thecursivebird x
Awe!!!! Thank you Dani!!! You are so very sweet! I hope your planning turmoil has settled recently? ☺️
No muddling here - great video! Very, very helpful. I do love to watch planner decorating videos, but I haven't seen enough time management/planning "how to" videos. :)
:) thanks Karen!!!
Hi, no more videos? They are so helpful!!! I hope to see some more soon...by the way, where did you get the wide arrow stickers? Thanks!
Gabriela Britos hi! Sorry for delayed response. I need to make a new video. The wide arrow reposition-able stickers are just 3M Flags that I got from the store. Most stores will carry them (Walmart, Target, Staples, CVS) They are stocked where post it notes would be... :)
great video. thanks for the info, very useful.
Thank YOU for watching. :)
Excellent video Melanie! Thank you for the tips. I've been looking for a way to combine personal with work tasks in my Filofax using the bullet journal method, so this helped. Also love the @agenda sheets! Definitely using that.
Awesome video! I want more :-)
lol, thank you!! I"m overdue to make one, I know....!!
Wow! Thank you! That was so helpful. I'm new to bullet journaling, while I love the bound book, I am extremely visual and it bothers me to have all my thoughts jumbled and then indexed to make sense.
Yay! Glad it was helpful! Welcome to the wonderful world of Bullet Journaling. :)
please please more videos, you are awesome and make sense to me
you're so kind! :) I promise, I'll try to wrap my head around another one. Just want to make sure they're helpful and not fluffy. lol
+Addicted 2 Planning thank you!
Awesome video! What kind of grid insert are you using that can take fountain pens? What diy fish insert number do you use?
Thanks!! I downloaded the free personal size bujo grid insert from Ray Blake's site (mylifeallinoneplace.com) and print on *28lbs printer paper*. Same paper I use for DIYFISH personal size v3s1 w/o daily inserts. :).
Great video thanks for the good tips
Miss Emma Jackson :: Ya!! Thank you for watching!! :)
Love your video!! Thanks. What pen are you using?
great system
Lovely video! I love seeing videos that help you PLAN! What pen is that? (sorry if you mentioned it, 3 babies make it hard to hear at times).
Natalia Jarvis thanks!! It's a Pilot Vanishing Point fountain pen... :) I think extra fine nib.
I love your videos!! This makes sense to me now! Do you have plans to make more sometimes? Are you still in the personal filofax?
Thanks Anne!! Yes, I'm still in my personal Filofax. I do plan on more videos... I'm way overdue! :)
love the @agenda recommended your video to my lovelies
Thank you Grace!!! I need to go watch some of your videos! Are you on IG? How did you refer? Do you have a blog?
+Melanie Smith hey my I have a Facebook page for my UA-cam channel. I would love to hear what uli think of my videos. great work
+A GRACEFUL WORLD oh! I need to find that group!
+Melanie Smith it is called A Graceful World
Love your videos!!! Where can I purchase the trifold Monthly Calendar?
Debby Hershberger thanks! Etsy, DIYFish personal size inserts, mine are V3S1.
Please, PLEASE do more videos. You are incredibly informative, and I want to hear more from you! Are you on social media? I'd love to follow you elsewhere!
Thank you!!! I am overdue... I know, sorry! I'm on IG as melliesm1th. That's where most of my planner stuff is. :)
Is your Pilot Vanishing Point a medium or fine nib? I love how it writes (or the look of how it writes). It doesn't
look too wet. And I enjoyed your video!
It's a Fine nib... I love how it writes too! I just buy the cartridges... No mess, no fuss. Ink dries quickly!
Do you make your @agenda pages???? Very interesting and I can see how valuable these would be!
Yup! Just grid paper, ruler & some lines. 😃
Oh and where did you get that adorable water tracker stamp?
The stamps are from Studiol2e.com. The water bottle one is from the "Iconic" set; and the other is from their "Plan it" set. 😀
I enjoyed this video very much! You have a comforting/pleasant voice, and I have nail envy (your's are awesome)! I love your hi-tech 3 tip reveal. I do have a question: do you use different pens for color coding or is it a multi-color pen?
Thanks Jodi!!!! ☺️. I have a fountain pen that I use mostly, but when I color code, I try to use my FriXion 0.7 pens. Being erasable are perfect for when plans change. I do also have two 5-color 0.4 pt Coleto pens that I carry around in the event I don't have the FriXion ones... And use them especially when the event has already happened... And I know I won't need to erase! :). Does that help?
+Melanie Smith Yes, thank you for answering. Keep the videos coming.
perfect setup. loooooove your handwriting ! what pen were you using if I may ask?
Thanks!! It's a Pilot Vanishing Point fountain pen. Their Metropolitan pen is also amazing!!
hi! you have a fantastic video! i wonder, do you plan only at home? i ask because I see your water consumption and other stuff filled in with another color, and you show your color coding to do's with different pens. Or you're doing it when at the evening at home? I can't imagine taking all of those pens outside of home and do it somewhere at work. Also could you please show how you did the headings for your dailies with black color with writing on it (the date) in white( is it a black washi with a white gel pen over it? thank you for your answer.
btw, I started to bujo with my dailies too, and have videos on this on my channel. I'd love to see an update too!
Hi! Thank you for your questions... I responded on IG... Tagged you in some photos. I plan most often at work and at home. Seldom outside of that. I have a multitude of favorite pens in both locations. I like choosing the right "tool" for the job. My favorite planning pens are Pilot FriXion gel in 0.7 retractable. I have them in like 10 colors..... But the Coletos work great too. Hope that helps! :)
+Addicted 2 Planning thank you! I have friction pens in 6 colors! But my most favorite color is always black. This month I run out of it, and I had to use my Lamy Safari, which leaves no room for mistakes... I participate in #onebookjuly2016, so I can't switch my pens - I had my Lamy in my bag, and I had to plan on the go, so I grab my Lamy and now use it. I also got another Filofax Malden in fuchsia color, and now I wonder if I can switch my aqua Malden, which I use right now, to it...
+mysummertouch @addicted2planning
+mysummertouch @addicted2planning
+mysummertouch I did OneBookJuly last year, I have no problem with the one book -- it was the one pen. I often write with my fountain pen also... (Pilot Vanishing Point) and love that too - except when I make a mistake. LOL! I need to go watch some of your videos. :)
P.s. I've subscribed.
Great video love how efficient and organised you are ☺️ can I ask do you archive all your inserts or throw them away ? Thanks for sharing 😁
Cathwalker77 thank you!! I archive them. :). It's fun to look back, and even helped me once trying to figure out past travel dates!
Addicted 2 Planning thank you does that go for you diyfish too Hun ?
Cathwalker77 it does!! I bought some loose binder rings... and use them to hold previous months. I want to make a little cardstock cover to act like a binder...
Addicted 2 Planning great idea I have the binder rings and keep my journal part of my inserts but never really thought to save the rest thank you for replying sorry for all the questions will leave you to enjoy your day look forward to more videos ☺️
I would have loved this sort of a thing 20-30 yrs ago but what I don't understand is the lure with all of today's modern tools on our devices. How much extra time in your day does this form of planning take?
momster hey there! This is the great debate! I’m a huge technology lover... need my iPhone!! However, this meets a bunch of other needs. First, I have a desk job, so writing things down is a non-issue. I can see in other situations, this would make no sense. Second, this has become my creative outlet... and may be a nice thing to leave behind for my kids. Third, this is ALWAYS faster then pulling out a device, unlocking it, opening an app and transcribing; it doesn’t need back up and doesn’t need charging. Most importantly, studies have shown that the act of putting pen to paper- lights up additional areas of the brain vs. typing - and retention is better. There are many things I use technology for, but this serves such a great purpose for me. :) I hope that helps!
Just love it. I also use my planner for both home and work so this video is helping me!!! I found your bullet journal system code on IG. Is it updated? It is always helpfull to see what others are using. :-)
Yes! What is on IG is what I use daily... :) thank you!!!
Hi. May I ask where do you get your grid Filofax paper from? I looked everywhere in Filofax stores, they only supply like 5 or 6 pages max with each new planner only and not sold separately :(
Yes! I print my own... Really simple... From Ray Blakes site www.mylifeallinoneplace.com. He has tons of great free download/printables.... I use 28lbs paper for zero bleed through... But regular printer paper would work fine too!! Very economical. Hope that helps!!
Hi love your videos👌🏼 where do you get your graphics paper? 🤔
Thanks Brenda!! It's a free download from Ray Blakes site www.mylifeallinoneplace.com. He has a bunch! I used to use the Bullet Journal page; but then he came out with a narrow grid personal size. I write small so it's been perfect. I print on 28lbs paper. ☺️ I hope that helps!
Great video! What pen were you using by the way?
Thanks Angie!!! It's a Pilot Vanishing Point Fountain pen that hubby got me for Christmas. Pilot makes phenomenal fountain pens in all price points... Highly recommended!
Where did you get your agenda grid paper from? I would definitely like to implement that on my system!
Hi! It's a free download from Ray Blake's website www.mylifeallinoneplace.com... There's a link in the description of my previous video. I print on 28lbs printer paper.... :). Hope that helps!!!
Great video and thanks for the tips! what grid paper do you use? I'm trying to get into bullet journaling but I want to keep using my filofax, so your video was super helpful :)
Thanks!! I use the free printable download from Ray Blake at www.mylifeallinoneplace.com. Its a personal size bullet journal sheet I print on regular printer paper, trim & punch. Super quick and WAY cheaper.... :)
Thanks :)
I need those reoccurring tabs and I like that size - where do you find those?
Patricia Milford | I think any stationary store or Walmart?
How do you orient yourself in time? This is the main thing that I don't like in planners without time - there is no time line to actually plan how long your tasks or events are goig to last.
I could see that.... I never have a problem with that; on my digital calendar, I can see if my appointments overlap or conflict. So on paper, I just need to see when they start. For tasks, you could draw out a time ladder and time block for chunks of focus or task specific items... That's what's great about grid paper and the blank page. If my day is crazy busy I may lay it out in more detail. I hope that helps!
Oops, I meant rule no.1. Of course, they were all good.
Hee Hee.... I know I'm still guilty of that. I need to be less of a perfectionist. I'll still scribble it somewhere tho!! Lol. Thank you!!!!! :-D
Hello there. I really like your system and look forward to implementing some of your ideas. Please explain the meaning of @ Agenda. I understand how you use it. (And love the idea by the way. But what does the name mean? Thanks. And btw you have a new subscriber.
Hello Elena! I'm sorry for my delayed reply, but I started to question where I got it from. Back in the 90s, I used a planner system called "Priority Management" which is where I first saw and began to use what they call a "Communication Planner". I use this for years and then A few years back I read Getting Things Done by David Allen. He has a context called Agenda which is essentially a list for communication - standing meetings and people you deal with on an ongoing basis. Since all of his contexts have the @ symbol in front (@home, @computer, etc) - I put the @ symbol in front of Agenda. So it really is GTD... Does that make sense?
The best way to make it none stressful to me is to ignore decorations and all that. A lot of these fancier channels really turned me away from bullet journaling.
I hope you found your flow! Decorating isn't for everyone... It needs to serve its purpose of being functional & effective for you! :)
I'm interested in the pen you used. What is it?
Hi Shwee; it's a Pilot Vanishing Point - Fountain pen. It's *retractable*.... And a fountain pen.... Love that!!!! :)
I like you!
This makes so much sense to me! Just moved out of my A5 and back into my personal size. Thanks!!! What's your Instagram handle? Couldn't find it.
Thanks!! Personal size is so awesome! I'm @melliesm1th on IG.... :)
I've got another question, where do you keep your tasks? Or do you keep referring to your bullet journal daily?
+Bridgett Edwards yes, tasks already to day. I have a few bigger lists (Master Personal and a Master Business task lists; as well as a waiting for list and Someday/maybe) that are behind my second tab. Lists I don't need to look at every day, but maybe every week or so. Does that help?
Where did you buy the blue and pink post it's.
sraldr00 you mean the little flag arrow things? Like Walmart or Staples... ?
Yes. Those are cute. Thank you
