MINIMALIST BULLET JOURNAL SETUP 2019 | Flip Through

- Опубликовано: 8 сен 2024
- MINIMALIST BULLET JOURNAL SETUP 2019 | Flip Through. Let’s get planning and organizing! In this week’s video, I will share my minimalist bullet journal with you. We’re going to do a flip-through of my bullet journal setup for 2019, and I’ll share how I schedule my weeks and my content calendar.
If you’ve never heard of bullet journaling, it’s basically a flexible analog system that helps you keep track of your goals, your schedule, to-do’s, significant events and milestones as a way to stay organized and motivated.
I just started mine in October of 2018, and I have to say I really love it. Secretly, I’m also kind of a stationary geek. :-) So if you just want to get inspired or learn how to start a bullet journal yourself, you’ve come to the right place.
My bullet journal has a very clean, simple, minimalist aesthetic to it. You can find a lot of beautifully designed journals here on RUclips, that blew me away, For me though, I prefer to keep it very basic and quick to use. My weekly spread for example, takes about 1,5 minute to design. That way I can use the rest of my time to work on the tasks that are actually on my to-do list, instead of designing my weekly or monthly spreads. But if you prefer to get really artsy, then a bullet journal is definitely a great canvas to work your magic on. :-)
What did you think? Think you’ll ever take up bullet journaling? Let me know in the comments!
Lots of love,
♥ Vera

You must come on right track or I'll out of this track
Best pronounciation of "Leuchtturm" I have ever heard in a non-German.
Yay! :D As a Dutch person, we had German at school so I'm glad some of it stuck haha
FINALLY, the perfect bullet journal tutorial! So many I've seen are so decorated & busy that you can't even see what you need to see - your schedule! I mean, isn't that the whole purpose of a journal/planner? TFS!
Thanks so much Bonnie 😄🌺✌ So glad you liked the tutorial!
Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can. Invaluable.
Thanks Carol! 😊🌾
Thank you for the inspiration.
I've been eager to try bullet journal, but most of the examples on RUclips are either confusing or too decorative, it gives me headache.
Your style is very simple.
Even though some of the pages doesn't suit my life, but I can still draw some inspiration and rearrange it to follow my needs.
And since you explain it one by one and flipping through without speeding up, I don't get anxious watching this video.
Again, thank you very much.
I'm so glad that I decided to subscribe to you.
Your style is very relaxing and simple, really helpful for my busy brain.
I'm so glad to hear that Zo Arai! 😄 That's the effect I'm always going for with my videos, life is busy and hectic enough, so let's find a moment of peace and tranquility for ourselves as much as we can 😄 Like you said, the spreads can be adjusted to fit your needs, and i also love that it's easy and simple to setup and use. Have a wonderful Sunday! 🍃
I agree... This is my second year bullet journaling, where it was quite complicated and just confusing + I compared it to other which made me feel bad. So, I ended up making my own bullet journal and it's not necessarily a journal as it's in a huge folder... as mine ran out of pages. I realised that a journaling of others doesn't make it truly yours unless you improvise.
I agree that happened to me too
Try to find the video (or book) by the originator, Mr Carol Ryder. Everyone else is trying to go above and beyond his system. You will find that his system is as simple as possible. No drawings, graphs nor washi tape!
Out of all the bullet journal videos I have watched, yours is definitely my favorite! I love watching people design their journal, but I constantly find myself thinking I could never keep that up and I would never use that spread. Yours is so practical and definitely minimalistic and I will be doing that for mine! Thank you for sharing :-)
You're very welcome, so glad you liked it Tiffany, thanks! :)
Seeing your minimalistic and simple bullet journal is like a breath of fresh air! Though I am an artist myself, you won’t find ANY art in my journal. I need it to be as simple as possible (as well as my apartment and clothes). That way I don’t have anything cluttering my view and my mind, and it’s so much easier to be focused.
Well said Anna, I feel the same way 😊 Glad you liked the video! Have a good weekend
I was an instructor in my past life and for professional development we were provided a planner and classes on how to utilize a planner for our job. Franklin Covey, DayTimers, DayRunners were huge along with the expense of planners and refills. It was long ago but turned around my organizational skills, productivity. As things have changed, iPhones etc. Bullet Journals have come into our lives. All the art, colorful pens, spending time coloring and drawing defeats the original purpose to the Bullet Journal. Yes to each his own, but when you spend time being artsy, it cuts into productivity. I won't even recreate the calendar but like the simplicity of Ryder's listing the days. Can't imagine spending so much time coloring and toting around a pouch of colorful markers. I also learned in my training the "KISS" method. "Keep It Simple Stupid" was the motto at that time - maximizing productivity. Also learned the quote" "over-analysis paralyzes analysis"
Thank you Vera, I really appreciate because it really IS a minimalist version of a bullet journal, and I agree with what you say about spending more time on other priorities of mine than spending a lot of time designing it. I certainly will use some of your tricks to build mine, which I currently have in mind !
I'm so glad you found it helpful Véronique 😊🍃
I've been bullet journaling for YEARS, and could never find a way to have a simple weekly spread because sometimes i really don't need a day to day spread, your method is a game changer! Thank you!
So glad you liked it Pao 🤗
This video is so great!!! I may ACTUALLY be able to overcome my page fright and perfectionism and start my journal finally.
I'm so glad Blushy Ginger 😄 I think a bullet journal is a great way to practice being less of a perfectionist. If you look at mine closely, you'll see lots of small mistakes, but I just decided to let them stay there. A bullet journal is a tool to use, and I think it's not the end goal to have a perfect one 😊 So I'd say, just try it! ✌🍃
I totally know what you mean! I've always wanted to start one but I have this irrational worry that it wouldn't turn out as pretty as those artsy ones and I'm expected to make it nice even though nobody else is going to see it.
@@merryjase1 Mine isn't pretty. That has never been an objective for me. It just keeps me organised and on top of things in a fast paced world.
In fact, I have moved to a digital method based on Workflows.
I will change, " don't forget to " to " remember to "
Good suggestion 😊
All of the other bullet journal videos I’ve watched look amazing but very intimidating to a novice with all the fancy artwork and stationary used. This is the first one I’ve seen that makes me feel like I would be able to make a maintainable and useful journal personal to me that will also look beautiful. Thank you for this video, it’s been very inspirational x
I'm so glad to hear it Amanda 😄 Happy bullet journaling!
Nice. This is about the 6th video on bullet journals I’ve watched and this is very, very, good. Thank you for being straightforward about the topic. Others have made it look like a art contest. I’d spend all my time decorating my journals instead of having them help my life.
Thank you Catherine, glad you found it helpful! 😊 I like what you said about the art contest, I think the most important thing is that it helps you be organized and productive, it doesn't need any art for that 😄
Simple Happy Zen hi, I recommended this video to my Facebook friends (3900+) today. I’ve watched it twice and I think it is simple, practical, and within reach of anyone. This is a fantastic approach to journaling.
Thank you so much Catherine! That's so great 😊 I hope I'll get to welcome some new people to the channel ✌🏻💕
Thank you so much for making this video! I need to get myself organized and have been looking for a system that doesn't make me feel overwhelmed. I've bought planners that I didn't use as I should for 2 years now and have watched a few bullet journaling videos that were very overwhelming because of how intricate and fancy they are. I felt dizzy. I just want something simple and at the same time, a little more structured than just a list, which is how I've been doing it. Your minimalist bullet journal seems like a good start for me. Thank you for the inspiration!
So glad to hear it 😄👍🏻 Thanks, happy bullet journaling!
Oh, wow! I have never heard of bullet journal before, but your video inspired me so much, I started it right away. OK, my lovely notebook isn't "bullet journal edition" and I can't draw but I love it!
A simple format which is great for me and can be easily incorporated in yours too, is dividing horizontally each week. I use the Work, Academia, Home, Blog tasks and makes my life so much easier!
Thank you so much!
You're very welcome Julie, so glad the video inspired you. Happy bullet journaling!
Omg. I have a couple of bullet journals now from Archer and Olive and I have literally just been opening them up and staring at them... Flipping through the pages and not knowing where to start. Your method is the one I am using now to start. Thank you! 🌟
So glad to hear it 😀🌸 I really wanted to inspire people to start bullet journaling in an easy and inviting way, without being overwhelmed by it all. So I'm so glad the video helped you!
I just love the simplicity of it💙
Thank you Sara!! 😃 I really like that too
I found this "minimalist" version really helpful; for me the actual bullet journal method seemed overwhelming, especially with all the extra decoration people put in, but I also thought it might be useful for me too.
Definitely gonna give this a go now, thanks 🙂👍
Glad to hear it Rachel! :) Just keep it simple and it can be very helpful. Happy bullet journaling!
Really liked this. It makes me feel better about my own bujo. To be honest I had to diy memo sized bujos because I felt I was wasting so much paper by not filling up the entire page. But this seriously helps me. Thank you so much.
I'm glad Arctic Wolf Beauty! Happy to hear it, and you're very very welcome :)
I love love love love my bullet journal and the fact that it's possible to make so personal. Thank you for sharing this, so interesting to see what others create.
Yes that's part of why I love it too, it's so nice you can personalize it so it includes everything you want 😄
Love this. I was considering bullet journaling but felt overwhelmed having to come up with weekly spreads and daily logs seem too restrictive when certain things just get done when you can squeeze them, so this weekly running to-do list is great! Can also add my kids stuff as well and anything else you want to track weekly right there on one neat page. Great idea! You’ve inspired me to try it!
I'm glad you liked it and that it inspired you Stacy 😀🌿
awesome. very nice setup. straight to whip.
Thanks! 🤗📚
I LOVE the weekly spread idea! I get so hung up on spending too much time creating a daily spread and then have some days where I do NOTHING. A weekly spread makes so much more sense!
Thanks, so glad it was helpful for you 🤗🗒🌱
I don't think I have use for a bullet journal, but I love how simple your set up is. It makes more sense than other videos I have seen.
Thank you Amy 🤗
I love your video! You know tbh I want to start a bullet journal since I'm a freshman this year and when I searched in youtube those minimalist-low budget-easy to do-no burden bullet journal inspiration, I only found 2 videos, and 1 of it is yours^^ like really, in my room I only have binder as the notebook (it's gift though hahaa), a sticky notes, a black and blue and red pen, a pack of 12 color pencils and 2 packs of crayon. I think I will buy some highlighter:)
Glad you liked the video Pamela! :) When you want to start bullet journaling, the only essentials are a journal and a pen. If you have some highlighters you can make it look prettier, but all that stuff is extra :) Happy bullet journaling!
@@SimpleHappyZen thankyouu! i'm making my bullet journal just now, it doesn't look so great but I get what I need hahaa:))
That's the most important thing! :)
Thank you so a basical journal tutorial really does exists. You have gave me the confidence to start.
Yay so happy to hear it, happy bullet journaling! Let me know if you have any questions
Wish I could have found your channel earlier. This is exactly what I wanted ☺️
Awesome video! I love the simplicity of your journal. You are the first person i see that does weekly spreads like i do. A day-to-day schedule is not always necessary. Thank you
Thank you 😄 So glad you liked the video
Thank you so much!!! I have been trying to set up my bullet Journal for the past two weeks 😅NO JOKE it was such a challenge I found myself starting over too many times there's a buncha different styles you see in other journal tutorials and to top it off my handwriting is not effortlessly blessed 😕lol anyways the simplicity you went over helped me out alot!😄👍💖
I'm so happy to hear it Blanca Rosa 😄 Happy bullet journaling! For the handwriting, try writing in all caps, it always helps me out ✌🏻
@@SimpleHappyZen Awesome I'll be sure to remember thanks for the tip!🤗💟
I’ve been watching a lot of bullet journal videos, but yours is definitely the one that has been most inspiring to me. Thank you so much. I’ve been wanting to start, and your setup is the one that suits my lifestyle best. Certainly simple, happy and zen.
That;s great Mona, thank you so much, happy bullet journaling!
Great video! I love that your pages are simple and practical and don't take a lot of time to embellish. BTW, I think that quote you have, "Start where you are...." is by tennis player Arthur Ashe. I love that quote! Also quotes by Lao Tzu.
Ah that's great!! I've been searching who that quote was from and I couldn't find it. Thanks 😄🌺
Hi Vera really enjoyed this thank you, I have looked at journaling before but a lot I’ve seen are very arty and quite complicated yours is better as you said I can concentrate more on the jobs at hand it will be a big help and more enjoyable 🤗
Yes I totally get what you mean! I also prefer it this way and it's also so nice to have all my schedules, lists and everything in one place 😄 Thanks Therese! 🍃🤗
Wow! This really helpful. Simple and not too 'exhausted' to make. Thanks!
Glad to hear it :) I also have the 2020 setup if you like: ruclips.net/video/yAnp_oMlrNQ/видео.html
Great idea to do a weekly list per page! I never though of doing that, and haven’t seen other journalers do it. I am “borrow” it! 🌸
Haha yes feel free to borrow :D Happy bullet journaling!
Your handwriting is amazing 😍 Thank you so much for showing us how you manage your planner!
Haha thanks Jane! 😄 I like writing in capitals, as it makes my handwriting better 😅 You're very welcome, thank you for your support 😙✌🍃
@@SimpleHappyZen haha I gotta try that too 😆 and it's my pleasure 💕 I really enjoy your videos and I learn a lot from you 😊
😄 I'm so glad!
The ring and nail color so beautiful
Thank you so much Chenxi :)
Love your weekly task list idea and set up
Thanks Shirley 🤗
This is great! Thank you very much for your inspiring video.
So glad to hear it, thanks!
I don't know why you can possibly receive dislikes for such kind of video. Thank you! Although I can't use all of your contents, I still learned a lot from you. Especially, I loved how you explained the quotation "start where you are, use what you have, and do what you can." It was truly inspiring and motivating. Keep the positive vibes up! God bless to you and your channel.
Thank you so much Alex, I really appreciate that 🤗🌻
Worth waiting for. Thanks for sharing. I love journaling!!💕💚💕
I'm so glad Siera! 😄 Yes I also love it now, it has taken me a while to find it 😊🍃
Great tips..love your weekly layout!!
Thanks 😊 Glad you liked it!
How did I only get to know this channel now?? It’s amazing and fits perfectly with me
Hahaha thanks, glad you're here! 😀
This weekly layout is so practical! Thank you so much for this!
You're very welcome :D Glad you liked it!
Posted 4 months ago, still replies to recent comments. What a queen
😄👊🏻
I love this video !!!! I found that I was using too much money for leather planners and I want one book I can archive and look back on. This video was so inspiring and simple!!!
Glad you liked it Roxxy Vega 😃🌼 Planning and organizing can be as simple and cheap as you want. :)
Soothing video. I enjoy listening to you and seeing your simple and pretty journal. I hope it will bring you ease in whatever you are planning. :)
Aw thanks for the kind words Madi 😊🍃♡
Truly a minimalist bujo. So nice. Thank you for the inspiration 🌺🌺
You're very welcome Jojoza, thanks for the kind words! ☺
This is great. I was overwhelmed by the crazy artsy ones on Pinterest. I’m so glad you made this video :)
I'm happy to hear it Kiley 😊
Love your BuJo. The simplicity is a perfect 10
Glad you liked it! 😊
Lovely, I like that you just have a weekly list and not a daily layout. I think I prefer it that way, but most of the journals I seen have the daily layout!
Thanks!! Yes I also prefer it this way, it offers more flexibility and you feel less like your days are "full of stuff" 😄
Thanks for the reply! I see you mentioned your a HSP, could you recommend or do a video on careers/jobs for HSPs? I know everyone is different, but just a general list! Thanks!
Thanks for the idea! I don't have a video like that yet but there are lots to find on RUclips, and Dr Elaine Aron also talks about jobs and vocations in her book. I found that quite interesting. I don't know if you're familiar with my HSP video series yet, but you might find that interesting as well 🤗🍃
Thanks! I just found your channel when looking for journal ideas. I am loving your videos and just watched the video series you mentioned.
Glad to hear it 😄 Thanks!!
Wow I love how simple this..i never thought about setting it up like that..its not stressful..love it..I'm going to use this idea
I'm so happy to hear that Trina! 😊 You can make it as simple and stressfree as you'd like 🍃✌
Absolutely love how you have set up your bullet journal. Definitely going to "borrow" lots of ideas :-).
Thanks so much Libby! Yes, borrow away!! 😄
Great video! love the minimal but effective art work.
Thanks Carol! :) I'll be making a new video with my 2020 setup soon
They say “birds of a feather flock together” ...watching your videos is like seeing my own reflection .. I have been handwriting my training journal for many years and have a calendar where I mark off the days.. I write a daily plan on my days off and use the trusty Stabilo Boss hilighters too 😀 🏄🏽♂️💦🇦🇺
Haha that's awesome, thanks for sharing Bodhi! :)
I really enjoyed your video and your neat yet very pretty set up. It reminds me of my own bujo. I can’t draw very well, so I can’t really take inspiration from the most of the journals I see on RUclips, yours is perfect!
So glad to hear it! 😄 I'm also not a very artsy person but I don't think you need that for a bujo at all 😊 Happy bullet journaling!
I love your video.
Thanks Francine 😄
This was a video about bulletjournaling with good tips for me......that week on one page is what I will go for next time. I like to have an overview of the tasks but I want only future and daily log so this small and quick weekly is the solution I think.
Yes, it was the same for me. :) Thanks for sharing your thoughts Edith!
Brilliant ideas. Thank you very much, very helpful
So glad to hear it 🤗
ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING VIDEOS WHICH I HAD MANY IDEAS FROM!!!!! KEEP DOING THESE VIDEOS YOUR JOURNAL SYSTEM IS AMAZING..... TOTALLY MADE ME UNDERSTAND BULLET JOURNAL AND COMMIT TO IT .....
Wow, that's amazing 😀🌸 Happy bullet journaling! Let me know how it goes and if you have any questions.
Thank you so much for this video. It's really useful. 😉❤
Glad to hear it!!!
refreshing
Thank you Simon! :)
Useful video!
I'm glad you think so Irene 🤗🌷
Thank you for the video. I’ve been so curious about bullet journals. 💜
You're very welcome 🤗 BTW have you seen this q&a by any chance? I believe your question is in there somewhere 😄🍃 ruclips.net/video/BRvxjQl41Pg/видео.html
Simple Happy Zen I sure did! Loved it!
Love your videos.
Thank you Lavender Birch 😊
Cool thanks
You're very welcome :) I also have a video with my 2020 setup ruclips.net/video/yAnp_oMlrNQ/видео.html
Wow! Simple and so neat. 🤩
Thanks 😊
I loved your video! Thank you! ❤️
Thank you Naira, I'm glad to hear it!
Vera. I love the flexibility of bullet journals and you can start a journal anytime. I like to create my own system as well and a bullet journal allows me to tweak the format as I go..I don’t use the annual spread. I use my Google calendar for that. I use a 2-page daily layout in my journal so that I have the second facing page for notes. I do like your YT planning and check list pages. However, I noticed that you also add the YT task list to your daily page. Is this not duplication? Perhaps you have a specific reason. I love that your journal is both simple, yet creative. I have seen some very “busy” bullet journals. I put a few stickers on mine and got tired of the clutter. I am back to clean and simple.
Thanks so much for sharing Patricia, I'm the same way, I prefer mine plain and simple! 😊 To answer your question, I write the content schedule in the monthly but also my actual tasks that I have to do for the videos in the weekly. That's because I usually group my tasks (one week I film 2-3 videos and edit them all the next week for example). Adding them to my weekly schedule allows me to get that organized and keep track of my progress. If that makes sense 😊
I love your approach!
Thanks loveat1stplan 😄
Thank you for sharing. Such a simple and clean setup that I can appreciate.
Thank you Ashley :) Glad you liked it!
Love this video! Thanks for sharing your bullet journal layout and approach to managing your videos. Great job! Xo
Thank you so much Sarah :) Glad to hear it!!
thanks for making your video less than 10 mins :-)
Haha you're welcome, I like to keep my videos short and sweet 😊
I started mine in October too!!!
That's great Joan, how are you liking it? 😊🍂🍁
@@SimpleHappyZen I love it. I started with a journal my mother gave me as a gift for mother's day...a lined journal with positive messages on the right side pages and a page for writing. But I love it because I am doing with it all my organization and habit trackers. And it's working.
Thank you for sharing this video. Love it.
Blessings to you!
Loved your weekly spread idea, will definitely try
I'm glad Arifa! Thanks for letting me know 😊🍃 Have a great rest of your day!
I feel like the bullet journal was invented for me. I worked for about 25 years and used day planner every year. I never truly loved any planner. I felt it never met my need and I was boxed to what was in the journal.... does anyone know how long the bullet journal has been around.... Vera, I love your channel. Your content is always above par, your insightful and your voice is so calming. Th am you.
Thank you so much!!! That's a wonderful compliment 🤗🌿 Yes bullet journaling is awesome, because we can make it just the way we like it. I don't know how long it's been around, I've actually only started using it at the end of 2018 but I will definitely continue with it 😀
Love your simple, pretty layouts.
Thank you Kerry 😄🌿 Glad you liked it!
Thank you for this video. I watched soo many and yours was the most beneficial for getting me started. I started my first simple bullet journal today. Thank you! For your help
Wow, that's great Diana, thanks and happy bullet journaling! ☺🗒
Thank You Simple Happy Zen. I’m soo excited. Love the future tracker and weekly spread. Easy to set-up and use!
Let me know how it works out, or if you have any questions! 😀🗒
How kind! Will do. Thank yiou😁
This is wonderful. I can definitely handle this.
That's great! 😄 Bullet journaling doesn't have to be hard or time consuming. Good luck with it and let me know if you have any questions!
Great topic, again 😊. I will try to adapt this model for my life...it seems more simple then the system I have. Also, a very very nice colour 😍👍
Thanks so much Bogdan, I appreciate it! Yes I also love it, it's the emerald green color
Hi Vera! Thanks for another great video! I had to write down the "Start where you are" quote because it is definitely something that I need to remember. I loved all the tips in this video and I'll be sure to come back to it if I feel stuck. I hope you're having a great week!
Thanks so much Olivia 😙🍃✌ I also love that quote, it has the power to instantly make me feel better when I feel overwhelmed. 😊 Have a wonderful Sunday!
I picked up a few gems from this, thank you for sharing!!
You're very welcome, thanks for letting me know 😄
I read 'I picked a few germs from it'.😆😆
I like your wish list page.
Thanks 😄
Thank you so much for sharing such a wonderful content...surely would make one for myself and it would definitely help me in bringing the best out of me....thank you once again
I'm so glad you found it helpful!!! Thanks for your kind comment 🤗🌼
Simple Happy Zen can u help me with more templates and ideas in BuJo for tracking RUclips Growth
Hi there! I don't know if and when I'm going to make another BuJo video, but in the description I've listed a couple of references that are helpful. The one by Lily Pebbles has a great RUclips growth tracker in it that you could use
Simple Happy Zen thank you so much
Thank you for making this video... 😘☺
You're welcome Kiranjeet Kaur 😊 Thanks for watching!
I love how you design your journal, it's so well organized and functional with aesthetics! It's was delightful to flip through the pages, thank you Vera for sharing another inspiring video:) I think I will try your journal system as well!
Yay, thanks Nur Lin, glad you liked it!! 😄👊🏻
The weekly spread is just what I've been looking for!
I'm happy to read that Chrystal Holland 😄☘
Hi everyone, I've been getting some questions about the 2019 setup, so I'd like to answer them here. :)
I started this notebook in October 2018 and filled it in for these last three months of 2018, as well as for the entire year of 2019. The future log and monthly log (in my case content calendar) are already filled in entirely for 2019, as I showed in the video. The weekly spreads are filled in for 3 months and I will continue to use exactly that same format for 2019 as well. The lists are also the same setup, I'm going to use them in 2019 and once they are full I'm just going to copy them exactly as they are. So the notebook is already in the 2019 setup. :)
Thanks for watching, happy bullet journaling!
I think your beauty is a reflection of the way you take care of yourself, using your method of journaling.
This is by far the most simplistic version of bullet journal. I started few months ago bought all the fancy stuff and stopped maintaining journal because i couldnt keep with the artsy stuff. You have inspired me again in a more simplistic way. I know wont waste the money i spent on stuff because i will organise my life in a better way, infact have started organising it with getting rid of unwanted stuff. I will use those pens and materials to make greeting cards and all.
I am so happy that i subscribed to your channel. More than that am happy i came across your videos at this point of life where i am opening myself to embrace the life universe wants to give me.
Thank you. Lots and lots of gratitude to you... i will try connecting with you soon to share my feedback on what difference did minimalism and journaling bring to my life.
Simple & inspiration 👌
Thank you Hanan Mohamed, that was the goal 😄🍃
this is a great video! and it's so helpful for the bullet journal beginners, thank you so much for sharing the video.^_^
Glad you liked it Li Zhu 😄 You're very very welcome!
I love those quotes！:)
Me too!! :)
This was an absolutely fantastic video. Would you mind telling me what type of pen you prefer for journal writing? I struggle with this small but important detail.
Hi there Jeremy! I like to use a black fineliner instead of a ballpoint pen, the one I use is in the description with a link. 😊
@@SimpleHappyZen thank you!
You are inspiring!!!
Thank you Barnika B 😄 That's really sweet!
You spelled Leuchtturm very good🤗
Ooh nice 😄 Score!
I see we will be reading the same books :) Soseki and Homo Deus are also on my Books to read list
Really? That's so awesome 😄 I hardly ever meet people that like Soseki. You might like Haruki Murakami as well 🤗☘BTW, reading Homo Deus right now after reading Sapiens, both very interesting
Oh, yes, I read Homo Sapiens some time ago, marvellous! I have read nothing by Soseki so far
I recently got intetested in Japanese culture so I try to learn as much as possible :)
Hope you'll like Soseki too! I've read Kokoro and Sanshiro and loved them, especially Sanshiro. Have fun 😄
Your video gave me inspiration for starting my own bullet journal💗 and you pronounced it pretty well actually (its always funny how non germans pronounce the word)😁
That's great Franka!! 🤗 Haha those years of German in high school were not waste after all 😄🍃
hello Vera. My days are really super full of activity because I am an entrepreneur and I have an artisan company. My work commitments include: purchase of materials, payment of suppliers, accounting, organization of work, paying attention to deadlines for deliveries, shipments, invoices, meetings with potential customers, contracts, contacts with customers all over the world, replying to emails, to phone calls, production of products that are all made by hand (so I have to sand, paint, assemble, place decals and stickers ..) ... And besides all this I take care of my animals (6 cats, 1 dog, 1 parrot) , of the house (shopping, cleaning, bills, repairs, etc.) and I attend an Academy of Theater so I also have to practice acting. In the evening I always walk an hour. Needless to say, around 9.00pm I'm exhausted. Do you think the BJ could help me sort out this chaos or would it take me too long to organize it? So far I have always used a pre-printed weekly diary (for example Moleskine), but I notice that often the space to mark everything is too skimpy. In the meantime I approached minimalism just to get more order around me and less stress. Thanks for your valuable advice!
Hi Jessica, sure sounds like you have a lot on your plate! :) I think a bujo can help you out if you keep it very simple and functional. It takes me about 1-2 minutes to set up a weekly page, so then it's not too much work. Especially if you have lots of different things going on, getting organized can be time well spent. It will help you to make everything else go much more smoothly. If you want, try it out in a cheaper notebook (or perhaps you already have a notebook you could use) for a few weeks to see if this is something that can help you. You can always get an 'official' bullet journal later, when you know you really want to do it. Good luck with everything, let me know if you have any questions!
@@SimpleHappyZen thank you very much, you are always very kind
Hi Vera, I like your bulletjournal! Where do you write your appointments? Thanks for your reaction!
Thanks Mariëlle! 😊 I chose to write my appointments in my phone. Otherwise, the weekly to-do list format wouldn't really work as well. So I write everything in my BuJo, except for personal appointments 😊
New subbie here. Great video! Very encouraging!
Thank you Louisa 🙂 And welcome to the channel!
