You can only become truly accomplished at something you love. Don’t make money your goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and then do them so well that people can’t take their eyes off you. --Maya Angelou[
I know it's not for everyone, but I love the bullet journal system. With my ADHD, I found a planner very restricting and would have months' worth of empty pages. With the bullet journal, I don't have to worry about the pages I missed if I forget about them. I also only do spreads that I genuinely use. I completely customized it to what works for me. I feel like people get hung up with the spreads people see on the internet and forget to make the bullet journal work for them. I also add important dates from my planner to my phone and laptop, that way I have reminders EVERYWHERE LOL

Yeah I totally get that, and I’m glad the bullet journaling technique works for you! I also have a graveyard of partially filled out planners 😅 and I do think your approach to bullet journaling sounds like it would be super helpful for others with ADHD. I think my problem when I tried it previously was that I felt like I needed to make the spreads all nice and aesthetically pleasing, and that aspect just became overwhelming and too difficult to keep up with.
This was great and now I have an excuse to go shopping for things for uni :)

I really like to try the physical planner because I always tried to use technology for planning which was not effective, so I like to give it a shot. Thanks! Also, what headphone you are using?

They're Cowin E9 Headphones :) and I'd definitely recommend a physical planner! It's already been so effective for me! But everyone is different so it may just take some time and patience to find a planning system that works for you.

How do I get my text in a pdf that I can write in - on my iPad? Is that an app?

Yup, I use the app GoodNotes for it, but there are a bunch of similar apps you can use too with an iPad!
