Bullet journaling. That’s what I’m working on right now.

Pre-pandemic, I was sooo busy, and my bullet journal (bujo) helped me keep a lot of balls in the air. A few weeks into quarantine, my life was suddenly not nearly as busy. I drew out weekly layouts anyway, and each week they remained mostly empty. By May, I had to admit that I was just going through the motions, so I finally stopped keeping the bujo up to date.

Now there is again such a variety of projects and tasks on my plate that I have known the past few weeks that the bujo could work its magic, if only I revived it.

Stopping bullet journaling = change I made
Resuming bullet journaling = time to unmake the change

And you’d think I could just pick up where I left off, but it hasn’t worked out that way at all. My projects and tasks are different, and frankly, my life is different, what with working from home most of the time instead being on the road half the time. So far, so good, but it is a process getting ramped back up. I bought a new template set and have been trying new layouts. It’s a funny practice, planning to plan.

But it sure does lead to clarity and peace of mind at the end, so I’m sticking with it.

Do you keep a bujo? How is that going?
