A few months ago, I decided to keep a bullet journal. I read some sources to keeping a bullet journal. They were about to answer some questions like ‘How to design bullet journal?’ and ‘Why you should do it?’. Also, on youtube, there have many videos for creative styling ideas, etc. My main idea was not styling or creativity, so, I wanted to find how to do it simply and easily. And, I tried some simple designs. I drew some sketches but I can’t find the best. So, I started to think one more time, ‘What I want?’, ‘What I need?’ and ‘What is the solution to my problem?’. When I through all these questions, I understood that I don’t want to carry with me a bullet journal, also, I don’t want to waste time on designs, paintings… So, I focused on my main solution, It has to be online! It has to bring inside the bullet journal or something similar and It has to opportunity to take notes. If you know the notion app, I hear your sound to say to me a notion app :). When I met the notion app, I understood, I had found my app to take notes, keeping a bullet journal, and writing my ideas. So, directly, I created an account and read some documentation for how to use the notion app. Day by day, I discovered some features and I improved not only keeping a bullet journal but also taking note. I create a simple bullet journal page and designed a weekly and monthly.

Weekly

Every Sunday, I change the date and tasks on the weekly tab and I carry what I did in the past week on the monthly card. Sometimes, I plan my day in the mornings or the previous night. The key to bullet journaling is being tidy. I love the idea that I can see what I did each day. Being a tidy person is important but sometimes it will be bored, when I feel that is going to be bored, I break one or two days because I don’t want to suffer for having to do it.

Monthly

The monthly page is more interesting. When the person sees what she or he has done in one month on a board, the self-confidence will increase. This is because he or she can do some criticals on this table and, understand that is it an efficient month or not. Thus, a person prepares themself for next month positively. If you have no idea about bullet journaling or something similar concepts, you should start now with no idea. Just take some notes on paper or somewhere, assign some tasks for yourself. You can’t believe the change.
