    1. What do you want to get out of journaling? (purpose: organization, improving mental health...?) -> 1-2 sentences
    2. Rapid logging (things you need to do (tasks), things you experience (events), things you don't want to forget (notes)). Put symbols next to them to find them easier when you look back at them later.
    - Tasks: divide long tasks into small steps. Minute 3:22 shows you how to identify/clarify a task state
    - Events: things that don't happen everyday or things that you didn't plan before. Keep it simple and objective
    - Notes: feelings, dreams, ... (for ideas instead, put a signifier, like an exclamation mark to find them easier)
    -> other signifiers like * can stand for tasks that are more urgent than others/have priority
    => Keeping track of these steps will show you what worked, what didn't work, what you need more, and what you need less (for instance, do this table after 3 months to have an overview)
    summarised: 6:25

    I started a BuJo in March and it's helped my ADHD brain immensely! Now I have a journal dedicated to keeping tracks of tasks at work, and a journal for my band, and one for my fantasy world I'm creating :D lol... probably using my official Blue22 for that one. I do use your - and + system for notes/research it, that was really elegant and clever, I thought. The exclamation is new to me, but I like it.
    I've I added some things of my own; a triangle for accomplishments for that day, a square for gratitudes, and a heart for random acts of kindness. It seemed silly to dedicate an entire spread to those things, and now I can look back on each day.
    I tend to keep my BuJo pretty minimalist/as Ryder and God intended (lol... old quote related to Heinlein sci-fi iirc). I just throw in positive/motivational stickers and draw lines around my days.
    Thanks for sharing!

    I started and stopped journaling two years ago. Then I did not get that a task can be an event! This seems a small thing but I think it's huge. Also I didn't get that a casual conversation was an event and would record them as notes. And last but most importantly I didn't get that logging observations and frequently got lost trying to record my feelings, or when I did record observations they would be overly detailed! This video was great! Made me wanna give it another try. Thanks.

    in 2020, i wanted a better way to keep track of things at work, so i started a bujo. When I completed a task, i would also put a completed date next to it, so I could keep myself accountable. I could make it what i needed it to be. I still use it three years later. I keep lists in the back and a future log. and when i start a new week, i have a list of important items at the top. Its so adaptable. and i have refer back to my previous journals all the time.

    • @bulletjournal
      @bulletjournal  5 місяців тому

      Our latest video is a take on Rapid Logging, but essentially there are "bullets" that help show us what kind of entry it is - dots for actions, circles for events, and dashes for notes. And you use them throughout the day to declutter what's on your mind. You might start in the morning with whatever is on your mind. Then throughout the day you add and update. Then at the end you close it out. That's all :) Then, based on what you've written, you decide what is important to do next.

    Question: I am looking for a good solution for adding appointments to my Bullet Journal. I am in the healthcare field and have appointments throughout the day. I see that many times the circle bullet is used for things that have already happened and I have been using them to designate a future appointment when I'm building my schedule for the upcoming day in my Daily Log. I am wondering if there might be a different solution as adding appointments to the Future Log or the Monthly Log would take up way too much room.

    How often does one rapid log? Daily? Weekly? Monthly? I can see starting with a rapid log and then pulling off that list to make my day-day tasks. Then, each day, tracking my todos while mini-rapid logging NEW tasks, events, and notes. Does that sound feasible?

    • @bulletjournal
      @bulletjournal  4 місяці тому

      Great question - so, rapid logging is *how* you make entries in the logs. Using the dynamic bullets, simplified language, etc throughout the day to create that list. Are you perhaps thinking of what people call "brain dumping"? In our Monthly and Weekly rituals we create a task list that you can pull from each day, so that sounds similar. Sometimes it's the specific terms that get mixed up!

(or draw a line and then write the date if I have enough room for another day on that page.) Ryder has videos where he talks about using the modules that you need, starting with the daily log.
