    my adhd ass picked this up in 2018 and utterly failed at it, as soon as my obsession with it passed I just forgot about it. But then I came back to it and instead of adding all those habit trackers, water trackers, what not, I started with barely anything and stuck with it if it worked and ditched it if it didn't. And then slowly added whatever I needed. And today, i'm proud that I regularly keep and maintain a (very tattered and falling apart) bujo 😤😤

    I’m an illustrator, but ever since I started bullet journaling with Ryder’s page several years ago, I’ve pretty much used a pen, a highlighter and a couple of stickers all this time. This year I’ve been getting a bit fancier with stamps and tape, but if I can’t lay down everything with a couple of pens the layout doesn’t work. My planner is bare-bones so it’s easy to read and maintain, and I save my art for my sketchbook where I can go crazy with it. Thanks so much for this video, I love your journaling and wake-up tips!

    Bullet journalling is supposed to be tailored for YOUR needs and to help you be less of a mess (hi, that's me, I'm a mess, lol), and I feel like a lot of people kind of forget that in favour of putting the aesthetic aspect as the most important and thus either being intimidated as you stated you were, or giving up after a bit. I personally am a very visual person, so for my Bullet journal I do like having an aesthetic aspect, but I don't want to pass hours just drawing and painting and colouring, so, an easy way to get the pretty aspects: stickers, washi tape and printing/gluing a lot of stuff. It also goes into the functional aspect too, since I print spreads that I use every month, like my 'working log', where I see which days I worked on what (was it planning? Was it researching/brainstorming? Was it outlining/writing/working on whatever project?) and how it went with dot stickers of certain colours for how it went (red is bad, purple is outstanding). A bujo can be whatever you need it to be. If the current system you have does not serve you anymore, you can just change it, experiment and make it better for YOU. Thanks for attending my TEDtalk lol.

    I thought many times of starting a bullet journal but all the design and styling looked super daunting - it's comforting to seeing one with a more grounded design. That being said, I'm so bad at keeping tabs and being mindful that I feel it will end up turning into a to-do list a possible doodle notebook

    I started 5 years ago though I took a 6 month break at one point. I ended up supergluing 5 extra large moleskine dot grids together and at the end of this year I’ll be out of room (and out of control size wise) so I’ll start volume 2. What’s interesting for me is seeing how it’s changed from beginning to now, how I’ve brought some elements back and completely dropped others. While the actual tracking and monthly spreads have been mostly the same (though some of what I’ve tracked has changed), the decorative elements have changed. And because it’s a creative outlet as well as a calendar/to do tool for me I enjoy the decorating and theme creating aspects. The first book was almost exclusively sketch/drawing intensive. Then I went through a washi decorative phase, now it’s a mix of sketching and ephemera. I kept a covid lockdown journal in it, and also always keep lists of what books I read each year, which films, documentaries, operas or concerts I’ve seen or attended, etc. My favourite bit, however, is that my daughter likes the drawings and decorative elements so much she’s vowed to save it forever, so it will become a part of our family history which I think is pretty cool. I absolutely believe everyone should obviously do what works for them and more simple journals can be more helpful or better suited to others who don’t need or want a combined ‘life book’ style. So yay for whatever way people choose to do (or not!) Thanks for the video!!!

(and simultaneously it reminds me of when in secondary school we just had store bought weekly planners that i barely did anything with......) still, i've always thought bullet journaling looks so comfy and good for keeping things in perspective, and this video was really pick-up easy and comprehensive, so i might just give it a try! thank you!

    I have adhd and the same issue! So I call the lists "brain dump" so I'm able to get everything on paper. Then I have a circle bullet for reasonable things to do that day and have a bullet point that looks like a little cloud that's more of a "thought/suggestion" like "hmm laundry is soon" "maybe go on a walk this week" "plan a hangout?" Anything loose like that to just remind me and not stress me out. With the circle bullet I use the method of check mark if done, and arrow if I didn't get around to it and move it forward but I use X to cancel items I didn't do because I decided not to rather than think of it as "failed to do". When I feel overwhelmed by my list I go in and cancel or move items. It gets easier over time to learn what length of todo items is manageable! Also when I first started, and even when I restarted after a year, I let myself do a MASSIVE brain dump where I filled literally three pages each line with to do, concepts of what I wanted to do, events, everything. I barely looked at it again but just acknowledging the thought and writing it down helped get that "buzz" out of my head and helped me focus on what I actually needed/wanted to focus on. I know todo lists are a double edged sword for ADHDers but I hope this helped! (Oh and also I keep it super simple, one page per day no frills because otherwise it's too much to focus on and becomes a part of my list lol)

    That's why I use refillable journals. I have one blank filler for diary and a dotted filler for bullet journal. They are together in the same notebook case (a leather one). I love writing my life events, but I also love tracking my progress on something I am working on. And I know for a fact that I won't be able to finish a whole book dedicated only for bullet journaling. So I use filler dotted notebook coz' it doesn't overwhelm me. An alternative is a journal notebook which is already a combination of a diary, planner and organizer. There are so many affordable ones out there. I used that last year and used 95% of the pages. I was sooo satisfied at the end of the year. Haha.

    @@NeutrinodiMajorana Go ahead! If you are referring to the refillable journals, you have more freedom whether to go for either simplistic or artful designs. It depends on you. Now, for the journal notebook that contains blank, dotted and, sometimes, monthly planner, there are some which already have colorful pages or pages with designs. But of course there are also notebooks that contain clean pages if you prefer simplicity. Also, with notebooks/journals that contain different type of pages and sometimes with monthly planners, it's like doing different type of journaling using just a single journal. With this, you have a choice as to what type of content you want to write. For example, If I don't feel like writing in my diary (blank pages), I can do bullet journaling (dotted and/or square pages), or just update my monthly planner. It makes me feel accomplished since it enables me to consistently have a journal entry. Good luck!

    Oh I absolutely understand the perfectionist part. I'm still like that 1000%, which is exactly why I now use erasable pens for everything. I never thought of the brush pens, though. That would make the big letter for my titles/headers a lot easier :D

    I'm going to try this--ADHD and autistic, but I love a lot of your ideas. Also love the brush pens. Btw, I *am* an artist, and I don't want this to be some sort of artistic medium for me. I want to carry on with watercolor sketching and NOT get bogged down--because I think the watercolor sketching is more something for me to share on trips, with friends, etc. If I write something private, don't want to feel like I have to share this. Also do have some perfectionistic stuff, another reason I like many of your ideas.

    This is what I did too. I started with a really thin blank notebook and tried it out. It was interesting. I copied someone else's setup first, but after a couple of days I would analyze what worked for me and change things. Realized a lot about myself just by trying to figure out how to bujo more efficiently. The weekly didn't work so well for me. I tried it out for a bit but it got full fast. Now I'm experimenting with using a calendar with really big spaces and I'm writing my weekly events and tasks on it. Rapid logging works better for me cuz of the way I think and my job. (I'm a teacher.) Depending on the day, I can take up 1-3 pages.

    i know this is a month later but i wanted to say that i use my bullet journal as a "habit" (task) tracker on one page for chores, health stuff and hobbies on one page and just a whole week's to-do list with no dates or labels on the other page! its honestly just good to have a place to dump tasks into and have the same trackers to remember to eat fruits or wash the dishes, etc.. ..so all this is just to say that its still useful if you dont have any events nor (like me) you dont have many tasks where you actually have to have it done on a specific day :)

  • @seraby7151

    For the trackers(habits/mood/period), I prefer using an app. But for goal setting and weekly planning, I still prefer paper. Anyway, you gave me a good idea with the monthly spread. Like writing what happened instead of writing plans/events(since future log and weekly spread kinda makes it redundant).

    Hi Ying! I don't know if you'll read this, but thank you for making this video! I tried making a bullet journal before but focused on the look of it (spoiler: I'm not an artist and I have ugly handwriting) and I also decided to do it much after the year started and in the middle of the week, so all of that discouraged me because I wanted it to be perfect, to start it 1 January and finish it 31st December - safe to say, I still didn't make my own journal. Your video taught me that I don't have to make it fancy and I can start with just a weekly journal if I'm not sure if it's for me. I'm writing this comment on a Sunday afternoon, so I feel like now is the perfect time to start it and I'll see if I wanna continue. I like your how-to videos a lot, especially because I feel like I can relate to you very much. Hope you're having a nice week and that you're doing well!

I struggle with trackers, because of the whole proces of having to open my BuJo, search, cross out the right square... It is just mentally too much for me. I shall try your approach of a seperate paper somewhere easy to reach :)

    It's so interesting but really, at some point I'd loose my patience if I made one 😅 Almost random tip: I used to lose a lot of sleeping time because if I woke up before the alarm I'd check the time at my phone and ended up spending time on social media and not sleeping again. So I changed the habit to check the time at my Kindle (the one with illumination), then I go back to sleep right after if it's still early.

    I'm currently on my second try of Bujo-ing and so far, a simple approach is the way to go to keep consistent with adding entries. This new journal of mine is much smaller than my 1st journal so I'm not pressured to make elaborate spreads just to fill up space. I also left blank pages in between each week so if I wanna experiment with new lists or trackers, I can put it there but if I end up realizing it doesn't work, i can just not do it in the next week. Low commitment heheheh
