Thanks for watching :)

I’ve recently gone back to bullet journaling, because I’m tired of subscription plans trying to force me to rent access to my own information and calendars. So I’ve started bullet journaling again, and I am enjoying it a lot more!

I've used a 3"x5" top bound spiral notepad in a leather notebook/memo book cover that I purchased in the 1980's when I was a police officer. I've carried this type of notebook ever since. I take it everywhere I go. It fits in my back pocket. It costs extra, but I started using Rite-in-the-Rain (#135) products and have been very pleased. Pencil is my first choice. I'm 67 and enjoying your videos.

A 2 notebook bullet journal type system has been a game changer. My pocket setup is my daily log and task list and my main journal is my monthly master list, goal tracker and collections of ideas/books to read/ etc.
-
Love it. Wish I could get these in Japan. That pen slipping right in the top spirals is too satisfying.
-
Two sides to every page which is super useful 😂 your sense of humour though 🎉
-
Right there with you. I’ve been turning away from my phone more this past year. There def is a satisfaction and ease with the analog method. It’s keep my face out of the screen more.
-
I am also using pocket journal since the beginning of this year and I got inspired by my dad who often use it to write his expenditure and important stuff throughout the day.

used your template for the monthly planner for january and really loved it! it was so simplistic and to the point. thank you so much <3 will try this one as well & see how it goes
-
Oh my God, Hot Fuzz is also my fave movie. And you are so right, the way he explained the importance of his notebook really got me into journaling..!
-
Fantastic video, I'm going to try to implement it in my life too
-
Its videos like this one and the life tracker video one that have just simplified my journalling practices...Thank you so much
-
Bro this is the most useful yt video that i have seen since last year
-
Thank you for the suggestions. I’ve used your links to order.
-
Just found your video and enjoyed it! TFS! 🤗
-
Thank God. I thought I was the only one that got put off by the complexity of the digital note apps; I tried forcing myself to do it but it just doesn't work. Thank you for the note taking system.
-
It's really nice and i will implement today itself and thanks for the video 😊
-
The closest thing I've had was a vocabulary notebook where I just wrote down new words every day and dated it like you did. But I got distracted and stopped. I'm curious enough to try this.
-
this seems way more practical and realistic... i dont know why every bullet journal video has to be "who can write down pointless things more than me". I need something to just capture these to dos, reminders, thoughs, etc and keep it moving.

Thank you. I am trying this too
