Greetings!
I have used the Bullet Journal for the past week. At
first, I felt that I was more organized. Checking the book every day was new,
however I put it where I would constantly trip over it, so I would check it
frequently, which I did. Migration was easy, it only took ten or fifteen
minutes. I believe it is a vital part of the tool. I also felt better about the
success of the week after migration because I discovered that I was more aware of my
calls, webinars, and tasks. Most days I completed at least half of them; and
several days I completed two thirds of them.
Starting on Thursday, the process began to feel
clunky and awkward. I felt like I had too many pages to look at and they were
not what I needed. I also fell into the trap of putting more tasks on a day
than I can possibly accomplish. I have done this in the past, and it is not
specific to the Bullet Journal.
I found the lack of a weekly spread more annoying
as the week progressed. Last night, before I did my migration and set up my
pages for the week, I searched for weekly calendars people have developed for
the Bullet Journal. I found one that I think will work for me, and I added it
to this week’s journal. There are plenty of examples, if I don’t like this I
will pick another for next week.
This week, I will be noting how often I use which
spreads. Perhaps I will discover that I don’t need a monthly, daily, and weekly
spread. Perhaps I will find that I need them in a different format. I can
understand why the recommended time to “try out” an organization system is two
months. It certainly gives me time to determine what is working for me and what
is not.

Let the Week Two Adventure begin!
Bright Blessings!
