Forgetting Tasks is a Vote on Their Importance
by
I regularly see people using a notebook for tasks saying that they forget to do things, important things. I’d ask if the task was important though if you forgot to do it. One of the forcing functions of Bullet Journal, or any paper based system, is that when a task feels way to hard to…
800 Days of Notebooks
by
Peter McKinnon on 800 days of note. I use a notebook at my desk all the time and have at time carried a Field Notes book in my pocket. Despite everything that digital tools are good at, a notebook is the right tool for the job sometimes as well.
Notebooks Come and Go
by
Greg shared his on again off again notebook habit. There’s something about writing by hand that feels right to me, even though it’s slower than typing, and you can’t just hit ‘search’ to find something you wrote. But for some reason, I just stopped using my notebook for a few months. It’s like it went…
Physical vs Digital PKM
by
The question of what type of note-taking software you should use has been hotly debated. There are proponents of every piece of software out there. But maybe you should take one step back from which piece of software you should use to ask yourself if you should be using software at all? Maybe a pen…
A Leftie’s Bullet Journal V2 Review
by
I’ve been using something like The Bullet Journal Method for years now. I’ve used the first version of The Bullet Journal, which was a lightly customized [Leuchtturm 1917](https://www.leuchtturm1917.ca) notebook with branding. I’ve used standard Leuchtturm notebooks as well and while I missed the third ribbon for marking my spot, ultimately it’s the same notebook. Today…

Get Your Kids on a Project Management System?
by
This sounds crazy to me: When Tonya Parker, a mom in Illinois, wanted to better organize her family life a little over a year ago, the first thing she did was set her kids up on Trello, a web-based project-management tool. Parker’s four children, ages 9 to 18, now use Trello, which is more typically…
A Bullet Journal is like The One Ring
by
Jamie Todd Rubin on his Bullet Journal: Almost at once, I saw exactly where a Bullet Journal would fill a desperately needed gap: the One Book to Rule Them All. Jamie gives us a history of his notebook usage before showing us how a Bullet Journal fills the holes he kept finding in his day.…
“Ugly” Bullet Journalling
by
Rebecca Renner writing for Book Riot: Ugly bullet journals are a wonderful thing. They exist. It’s just that a lot of them are hiding, ashamed to show their pages amongst their more Insagrammable peers. But that’s ridiculous, because it seems to me that, contrary to the perfectly measured and color-coded reputation bullet journals have garnered,…
