    I think I've finally understood why so many people need the grid pages when I usually use my ruler... it's because the grid is in centimetres, as my ruler, while most American users have rulers in inches, that don't fit the dot grid. I'm sorry guys, but if you try using a ruler in centimetres you'll spare a lot of time!

    I am on video two already, but had to pause to say, these are THE BEST bujo videos I've seen. Your personality, your humor, your dope stickers, and the way you don't weirdly gate keep bujoing like it's some kind of elite etsy secret society? I needed it.

    Binging on your old videos here. I went through one non-branded bujo and now am on my second, being this official version because my hubby wrote his name in it and never used it, so got it for free. But once I some day finish this one, will definitely get the official one as my next one as well.
    Also agree with you approach to a mininalistic starter pack. I have a Stabilo, which fits into the pen loop easier. Also usually carry a pencil case with a few colorful markers (adhd, need colors to remeber stuff).
    But all in all, this brutally simple approach is really something I wish more people would promote. Amd doing WHAT WORKS FOR YOU! Like even the multiple overlapping logs in Ryder Carrol's method is too much for me. I just have weekly spreads with hours 8am-8pm and then random daily pages if I have a lot to do or just random notes or themed pages.

    The grid is the first thing I did for my journal!! It was extremely helpful at the beginning, but now I just use older spreads instead XD Having a metric ruler instead of imperial helps a lot too.

    I actually logged into YT (which I rarely do) to point you to the reason why the original bullet journal has NO loop (and now I'm kind of annoyed that I added one to mine). You can attach the pen super easy to the book with the rubber band, by NOT using it vertically but diagonally. Video explanation by Ryder Carroll here: ruclips.net/video/Nn75EBBnUBM/видео.html

    • @SimieIriarte

    Yes. Ryder. Add the pen loop.
    It really won't break the dude.
    I've been using the Exceed journals from Walmart, but they are very hard to find these days in a dot format. I had a B5 (?) and loved it, but they don't make that size anymore. I'm back to the A5.
    At the end I discovered a new practice for myself: when the elastic band is crooked, I'm not going to straighten it.
    It's funny that I could make a habit tracker to track my success relinquishing control of the band.
    You're awesome, Simie. Keep up the good work! (I'm catching up...dunno why I abandoned my Bullet Journal for so long, but my life is currently a cautionary tale: don't do that.

    Great video! And so true, you really don’t need much to start! About decorating: i do have a box… full of stickers, but I felt they stressed me out so I left them unused. I did get carried away collecting them so I no longer buy them. Yet you’ve convinced me to give my collection it another try (slowly)
    I might use the LT for my work bujo.. I’m going to use the moleskine expanded grid notebook for my regular bujo (…I write a lot and like infinite pages :D)
    Loving your no stress content and functional bujo videos! And the humor of course!

    It is such a game changer. I can put a pen for writing, a ruler and some 1-2 colour pencils or highlighters in it. And it doesn't take much space.
