Love the travelers notebook as I use multiples as well, can’t figure out the sizes. Can you share the measurements that work with A5 or source for yours?
Thank you

In reply to Maha. I've watched some videos on digital bullet journaling! It looks like a really good option and I've actually even considered it. However, I've discovered that since I spend almost my entire day looking at a screen the physical journal just works better for me. :)

Your Bullet Journal(-ling?) ideas are fantastic and very useful! I tried making a bullet journal, but couldn’t keep up in making it every month, but use them so much when they’re ready, so instead I opted for creating a digital bullet journal that would take less time to make, and I could make it in one go for the entire year. Of course, the best part about making these bullet journals is actually making the art – it’s so fun! – but, I do recommend for anyone who would prefer digital designs or feel limited on time to maybe create a digital version then print it. I’m so excited to start filling up this journal with more exciting stuff when the school year starts 😉

Hi Karen,

You’re welcome! Usually we think of January as a good “Reset” point, but I don’t know about you but I usually feel pretty frazzled after the December. 🙂

100% right!

It’s funny, in my brainbook week 3 in July looks different from week 1 in July because I’m always tweaking and trying new things. Right now I’m working on time blocking so my daily pages look a lot different than they used to.

Miss a day? Turn over a new page! Miss a week or a month? Turn over a new page. And unlike a traditional planner, you don’t have all these “wasted” pages in between!

I don’t know if this qualifies as a hack, but if, for any number of reasons, you miss a week or even a full month (I might be speaking from personal experience), don’t beat yourself up or ditch your bullet journal and wait until January to start a new one. Just TURN THE PAGE and pick up where you left off. Your bullet journal is yours, and no one is going to know you missed some weeks. I’m kind of a perfectionist, and I fought this battle in the middle of last month. I really missed out on the benefits of using my bullet journal, and made myself just start up again without agonizing over the lack of May and half of June. I also moved across the state, and will be starting a new and different job, so my bullet journal layouts have been changing and will continue to do so. I’m seeing it as a creative challenge instead of freaking out because July looks so different from March!
