- This is how I set up my VERY minimalist bullet journal to increase my productivity and mental clarity. This is especially for you if you are a non-artsy human and you like to keep things VERY simple.

What helps you be more productive and get your todos done? Share with me :)
Conni Biesalski A basic to-do list works for me. I do like the idea of a simplified bullet journal. Seems way less intimidating and time consuming. Nice video 👍🏽
Ich habe die druckerzeugenden todos in wanttodos umbenannt und schon fühlt es sich besser an :)
Hi thanks for your share, I am not a fan of getting rid of a bujo :-) or deleting tasks. Maybe a tip I will try. What I did love was that your pen holder is also broken!! That always happens to me 2 :-D
Kinds regards
Rani X!
I need use some kind of “brain dump” or “master list” to get everything out of my head. Not sure if those are two different things...
@@ludmilla1332 Yes, I like the brain dump as well -- kind of like emptying out a drawer or a closet and then sorting through what you find, throwing out what you don't need, and re-organizing the rest for ease of access...
"Just use a pen!". I need a friend like Conni in my life.
Same!
The original Bullet Journal by Ryder was indeed minimalistic and simple. Sometimes it pays to go back to the roots/beginning. 💕
exactly...
This is the only REAL minimalist bullet journal. No rulers, just a pen/pencil and a notebook. That's more encouraging than all those artsy and colorful spreads!! TYSM.
The ONLY video on bullet journaling that I actually watched till the end because it doesn't make me feel overwhelming and actually makes me feel yeah I can do this! Thank you so much! God bless you.
Simplicity is why Ryder developed the Bullet Journal Method. Complicated folks hijacked it.
I have probably watched 20 + of these tutorials on bullet journaling and your down to earth nature is amazing. Please re-consider keeping your old journals. From a conventional "journalist" for many years, its great to look back to see where I was. :) Thank you for your video.
A minimalist journal that’s *actually* minimal.
I know Bullet Journaling will help with my ADHD…anxiety souring…too many systems…love your min/simp way!
Thank heavens... a real person who does not need to set up "spreads" for their Bullet Journal... Love the simplicity
The original bullet journal by Ryder Carrol is very minimalist, even more minimalist than yours. The artsy stuff is personal addition to the original bullet journal concept. Fine if that's what you fancy, but absolutely not required.
👏👏👏
I like the way you use intention instead of goals. Thanks for sharing this.
I have $4 notebook and a 10 cents pen , and it works amazingly for me
Almost against my will, I have been drawn into bullet journalling lately, but after watching a large number of YT videos, I am confused and turned off by most of them. Until I saw this one with the word "ultra-minimalist" in the title. This is what I have been looking for and groping towards with one black pen and one simple notebook. Thank you so much for lighting the way. :)
Thank you for this. To many bullet journal videos by scrapbookers. I wish I could find more methods like this one on here.
While I think that the super elaborate bullet journal layouts are lovely, they defeat the purpose of Ryder's intent.
I like your approach. I think that it will work well for me. I like setting intentions for the month, as well as reflecting on the day. Your approach has the right blend of mindfulness and minimalism for me!
Thank you so much for this video, Conni! I really like the idea behind bullet journaling but all the "pretty" journals kept me from sticking to it because ain't nobody got time for that. :D Love your approach! That's definitely something I can imagine working with.
Thanks for another great video!
In my bullet journal I ushally have sections for: what I'm going to do for self care, who I'm going to communicate with/reach out to (if there is someone in my circle that I know is struggling or that I haven't heard from in a while) and either something that inspired me that day or a creative idea I had. I find these help me stay connected and creative and not just think about the things I have to do for work or adult life etc.
I love that, really good stuff, thanks for sharing! I used to include similar sections and a habit tracker as well but then always found myself forgetting about those pages and not keeping up wit them, so I dropped em haha
I have a lot of respect for people who keep those sections going!!!
Thank you! This is the way! I've always felt intimidated by the amount of sections and keys and methods around bullet journaling, but your method is truly simple and minimal. At least for me, it looks just right, organized enough but still simple to remember and not time consuming. I'll try starting this evening!
Great video, Conni! It was really straightforward and easy to follow and I actually watched it till the end so - well done
Thank you for sharing your bullet journal. Very informative.
I like simple too - otherwise I get overwhelmed and end up not using it
Ive been keeping a notebook like yours for 5 years now and it helps me stay on track when it comes to work related stuff. It took me about two years to realize that i have been bullet journalling all along.
Its not about the fancy artsy stuff (although i do love to watch artsy bullet journal flip throughs). And while i do draw, i just cant maintain doing creative spreads each month 😅 so i just use a pen, one highlighter, and several stickers when im in the mood haha
I do something pretty similar to this. I like the idea of the pretty bullet journals but I don't have the patience so if I'm feeling particularly creative in the morning I will just give myself a pretty header for the day. I will add a little bit of highlighter then write the date.
Thank you for this! Very serendipitous, as I was sitting with my 2 notebooks writing out multiple lists I needed some chill music to keep me focused so I go on youtube to find you popped up first with this. You are very in tune with the universe in that way. I also prefer hand written notebooks, with the apps I feel that as soon as I jot something down it becomes something that is no longer on my mind because I documented it, well then I don't refer back to it. The hand written notebook can stay on my desk open to the page so I have a visual reminder every time I am near my desk, that keeps me focused & not forget the task at hand. Also the chill background vibes I've been listening to lately is youtube channel of Chilled Cow. You might like it.
I like the idea of gratitude and highlight section!
I'm grateful for you sharing your amazing setup. You have taken the headache and mystery out of this journaling process I've embarked on and I feel more confident than I have the past month as I've researched how to RUclips videos. Thank you again!
One of the best setups yet!
I like you, very straight forward, no fluff. I am subscribing for that reason
Great and simple Bullet Journal. 👍 I think this simple way is worth to put to the test. Thank’s Conni for charing this video.
I just started bujo this year. i’ve been using planners the previous years and expensive ones too from Starbucks etc but i can’t customize it and end up not getting a lot done or limited.
I can do the fancy stuff since I paint etc. (and that’s why i try to do it) but the bullet journals on youtube are sometimes overwhelming and it triggers my perfectionism.
I started to remember it’s for me to chronicle my mental health journey and have release as well as to manifest.
I forgot that most youtubers are almost always selling you a product and i got sucked in. I can only afford a 5 euro bullet journal from hema which is pretty and actually of good quality paper but is not as thick and cannot withstand any of those fancy markers.
Anyway thanks for this! I’ll get on with mine. Will still do a bit of the artsy as it’s healing for me to do creative but it’s a reminder for me not to go overboard with the need to be perfect which then makes me procrastinate and just get on to doing and creating and journaling.
All the best to you!
Thank you. This is cool, I watched many bujo videos that turn this journal into artistic style (to me it's just extra burden to my busy schedules). Love to put everything simple.
This is a great video!!! Simplicity at its best, and what works for you!!!
This is the video I need! Need need need!
Thank you 🙏🏻. I am going to embrace this, along with a lot of what you have posted, in my maiden plunge internationally in Jan.
Thanks so much! This definitely looks like the system for me. Happy holidays. Happy new year. Be well
Das war mal wieder die Bombe. Bitte viel mehr Videos, Conni.
That's what I really needed to get !
Thank you !
👍👍👍
Incredible journal custom for mental clarity and health.
Thanks for sharing Conni
Yeah I'm glad that I found this video. I was cutting tried of looking at all that cutesy crap
Lovely! That's the only thing that has worked for me as well, but lost it the last two months. Thank you Conni for reminding me!
thanks Conni, love your approach - it's so simple that there's no more excuses not to do it ;-)
This is what i needed. 😊
Its Just beautiful.
Thank you so much. This video is exactly what I needed. And you earned yourself a new subscriber!! 🥰
That's the perfect bullet journal I have searched ever❤️
Gonna so try this! Thanks Conni xx
awesome, let me know how you go :))
Mach ich jetzt auch so! Coole herangehensweise! Merci Conni
Oh my goodness!!! This is exactly what I was waiting for. Will incorporate today. Big thank you!
HELL YEAH, so happy to hear!!
I’m new to bullet journaling and I enjoy doing little doodles, but I also love your straight forward layout, this would work for my daily use. I’m going to add highlights... great idea! 😁
Thanks! Always liked The idea of bullet journals, but couldn’t get around all the details. Pictures, blocks, lines... This makes so much more sense and I think I can do it, with minimum stress. Thank you and have a great day!
Thank you!
Excellent video and I love your simple system. It's very similar to what I do. Thank you for sharing!!
Awesome!!!
Just trying to get into bullet journaling. I have ADHD and was told these are good for keeping track of..life. I like your approach so much very much. I like the art and ideas I see on other videos, posts, etc, but if I made it a habit to do this each month/week/day, I would give up very quickly. Thank you for your simplistic approach!
Why I haven't found your video much earlier! Ahh! Your is what I was searching for!
This is how I have always bullet journaled I stopped during the pandemic and im picking it back up and just refreshing myself with the idea. I use one pen, one highlighter and one notebook.
Great! Thanks for sharing :) Love the simplicity of it.
simple is the only way to keep me interested in stuff like that ;)
Thank you! I finally found what I was looking for. Subscribing.
Hallelujah🙏🏻 It took me so many videos but I finally found you.. Instant love🧡 Instant Subscribe 👍🏻
Love it :-) Thank you!
One more for grown-ups! Thanks!
thanks ,from Uruguay
You are so amazing. Thank you.
I just started bullet journaling and mine is half artistic half (?)
Yeah... and I'm a designer and my talent is a digital talent, I created a bullet journal with a fairy tale cover and aged sheets made by hand, dyed with coffee and vanilla essence... I SWEAR IT SMELLS REALLY GOOD
But I definetly dont know how to draw, make ornaments and fancy setups.
Thank you for showing that it's ok to be "normal" haha and im going 100% to go for journal and make my life work better ON MY OWN WAY!!!
"just use a pen" made me lol
“Just use a pen”:D
I do love Sharpie S Gel pens. :)
Nice hair!
Now bullet journals are called "ULTRA-MINIMALIST BULLET JOURNALS" 😂
Love this. Do you have a “section” of pages earmarked for a topic. For example budgeting?
35+ (artsy, pretty, advanced and elaborate) bullet journals later - found yours!!
Love you!!!
On my 2rd tuesday this week I have our wedding planned :-D
- Your Fellow A.D.D. partner!!
Thank God for this video! People are so extra with their journals lol
Am I right hearing a little german accent? Hello from a fellow german! Loved the Video, so much more realistic than these artsy ones!
Just: 👍🏻 thx
I really like your hair.👍
I like the simplicity of the notebook you're using in the video. What is the source?
i thought it was silly until this video, thank u :))
KISS method: "Keep it simple stupid" was taught to me at one corporation. Works! Have to laugh at all the artwork, designs, colorful pens to carry around etc that some create. By the time you create your colorful art and design, you could have accomplished a task! And isn't this the reason for keeping a bullet journal or planner, getting things done, accomplishments? Carrying around a pouch full of colorful pens defeats the entire idea for me. Thank you for this "simple" approach. Of course simplification, a notebook, defeats the millions of dollars the "planner" industry has created and for which so many migrate to.
...thanxxx♥️🙏🏼👌🏽
Conni what is the brand of your journal? I like the simplicity of it.
I have a $7 journal ❤
Have you thought of using a reusable notebook like Rocketbook so you can just wipe away instead of throwing the notebook out after use?
Personally looking back on things I've wrote is always pretty cool, occasionally pretty funny, sometime cringy, and (every once in a while) even helpful. I try to save all (within reason) of my personal writings.
New subbie 😊
Gorgeous! Thank you for that input!!! Your setup is very similar to the 2020 year of growth diary by @dreamy_moons i‘m currently using
Very cool. . . also do you cut your own hair. It's always looking amazing.
Great, thank you! do you have a section for planing dates for the future? Or do you use a calendar (app) for that? I have a calender and I like to use it for planing of dates but I need to write a seperate to do list for every day and week to get things done. will try if your setup works for me :)
sonrisadelsol I use my google calendar for future planing 💛
I found a calendar spread online for my Bujo (two pages) and paste it as the first page of each new month.

Hey Conni,
ich war kurz davor dein breathework Kurs anzutreten leider war dieser schon voll. Und jetzt wirst du mir auf RUclips vorgeschlagen. Zufall? Ich glaube nein :D
How you organise your vidros here by the way ? Haven’t see u for ages xx
"Just a notebook"🤣
Conni! Where are you!
Richtig cool sowas mal auf Englisch (für die ganze Welt), aber von einer Deutschen zu sehen! Ich glaube viele gute Inhalte von deutschen Filmmakern/RUclipsrn oder so gehen in der Welt etwas unter, da sie auf Deutsch verfasst sind. Also generell, auch bei Sachen auf Spanisch oder welchen Sprachen auch immer.. Englisch bringt die Message meistens weiter/für mehr Leute zugänglich :)
Cooler Kanal! Abo ist da :D
Hallo Conni, schön das ich deinen youtube Kanal gefunden habe. Bietest du auch Skype face to face calls an, wo man dir Fragen zu deinen Erfahrungen stellen kann?So ne Art couching? Liebe Grüße Tuba🌈
Would you post a link to the notebooks you use?
What you do with the note book after u finish tem ?
in this video, she said she tosses them out
How adorable are u....

This would have been so much better without the music muddying up the speech. Major major headache trigger.
