How do I even begin to start this crazy process???


Guess what??  Because this can be customized to you there are no special supplies needed!  Don't get overwhelmed with all the pretty layouts initially.  They will come (or not if that isn't your style). 


Grab a notebook that you like and begin simply by making a complete list (home AND work) of everything you have to do.  This is very important!  Do not try to keep two separate lists - it's only more to manage!



Congratulations...you just made a simple bullet journal task list!



Check off items as they are finished and rewrite the list each morning.  Add new items as they are assigned.  Do this for a few days or even a week and see how you answer these questions... 

  • Are you worrying less about what you have to do? 
  • Are you remembering things more easily? 
  • Do you sleep better because you are not trying to hold those tasks in your head? 
  • Do you feel a sense of accomplishment looking back at past days and seeing items checked off your list? 
  • Have you taken time to get some of those tasks that often get overlooked but will truly take 5 minutes to do (we all have them) off the list because you just can't bear to write them one more time?

This is why I started Bujo.  This is why I have done it for the last 15 years in one form or another.  This is why I will continue to have this as a part of my life!

Why don't I just use a planner?

I was soooooooo frustrated with planners.  Have you seen how small some of those spaces can get?  What if I have more to do on Tuesdays...
