Bullet journals seem to be a bit of a hype at the moment, so of course I jump on the band wagon. We all know from previous blogs I am a stationary obsessive, so it was only a matter of time I got myself a bullet journal. Although that being said my awesome husband actually bought me it for my birthday. I think my endless evenings watching YouTube video after YouTube video was a big enough hint! So, what makes the bullet journal the hot new way to stay organised? I’m not really sure if I’m honest. The idea is to use rapid logging to stay organised – using a dot to log a task, cross to complete it and a dash to mark a note. There are many other symbols, but none if that seems to work for me. What I like about the bullet journal is that I can create whatever I like. I love how I can log a Birthday Calendar, a to do list, and my one, five and ten year goals all in a layout that works for me. I can keep up to date with future plans with the future log and stay organised month to month with my monthly calendar.
I also love to throw in some inspirational quotes. Just as I’m flicking through my notebook I see them and they spur me on for my week ahead or put a smile on my face if I’m having a down day! The reason the bullet journal just works for me, is that I have everything in one place. I don’t need a notebook with blog ideas and to do lists as long as my arm, plus a diary containing my life I have everything I need in one book with a layout that works for me!
