![]() If you like color, Sharpie pens are always just right. PENS: Any decent fine-point pen will look lovely on your page. Though I like that the Moleskine softcover comes in more colors than just black, the ink bleeding is annoying. Vicky's thoughts: After using both the Leuchtturm and the Moleskine A5 dot-grid softcovers, I can tell you that the Moleskine A5 is a) narrower than the Leuchtturm, and b) has thinner paper with greater ink bleeding. But if you don't intend on doing much that might bleed through, this is less of a concern. Pay attention to paper density (usually some number marked in GSM, Grams per Square Meter, like 80 gsm), which indicates whether ink will bleed through. There are hardcover and softcover versions.īRAND: Popular brands are the Leuchtturm 1917 and Moleskines. A5-sized notebooks (approximately 8.3" x 5.8") are popular because they have enough space for a layout without taking up too much room in backpacks/purses/whatever. That said, there are benefits to using a graph-ruled or dot-grid-ruled notebook, given that you will be establishing your own layout and designing works easier when you have something to go by. PAPER: There is no official journal/notebook that you must use in order to have a bullet journal. Put the key to your bullets somewhere near the front (after your name but before the Index, maybe). Don't migrate a task if it's not worth your time! Every week/month, look back on what you didn't accomplish the previous week/month and migrate the tasks to the new time frame. The Bullets (as designated by Ryder Carroll, but redo to suit your own needs if you work differently) If you find the format you use for this week isn't what you need it to be, change it for the next! The Weekly and/or Daily Log: Again, in whatever format works for you, list out the week or each day and track what you need to do.This is a good time to review your online calendar, if you have one, to make sure you're caught up with what you have planned. You can also include a box for monthly tasks and other things you'd like to track as the month progresses (assignments? semester-long projects? job searching goals?). The Monthly Log: In whatever format works best for you, here you list the dates of the month and the tasks to be accomplished/events to be attended on each date.Your layout can be simple or elaborate, up to you. The Future Log: after the Index comes the list of upcoming events, appointments, tasks and whatever else you want to keep track of in the coming months. ![]() The Index: Save the first 4 (or 2! or 6!) pages of your journal for the Index, where you write the page numbers of your entries (lists, months weeks and days if you want to) as you track them so you can find them again quickly.Key Components of the Bullet Journal System ![]()
