@kevinkamis: In November, 2024, I forked over the $31 for this Leuchtturm1917 Bullet Journal - it was on the shelf at my local Barnes and Noble and I couldn't resist. 6 months later, I've almost filled every single page, here's what I've learned.   With the Bullet Journal, I have to be honest, I havent used the bullet journal method....   I personally have ideas on the fly all the time and found that I function best when I use Things 3 as my to-do list. A lot of ideas get captured in my inbox, and then after further thought, I don't move forward with them and that's okay.   At it's core, this is one of the principles behind the BUJU method, I'm just tweaking it a bit to work for me.   So if I'm not using the actual Bullet Journal method, how did I use this notebook. Well, I was inspired by this Peter Mckinnon video. At the beginning of each month, I make one of these setups.   Wake up before 6 am, yoga, workout, read - these are each things that are important to me. I fill them in when I was successful in doing the thing that day. It's a sublte reminder for me to stay on tack - I'm clearly not perfect though.   Then each day, I start my morning by writing the date, followed by a journal prompt that is actually coming from Day One - I signed up for this a long time ago, never touch the app, but get this handy prompt on my iPad each day. I'll write out the questions and then spend the first minutes of my day reflecting. This is usually done in my favorite chair, with a cup of coffee.   I find myself gravitating to Good Notes because I feel like I'm able to express my thoughts using various colors, highlighters, drawings, infinite paper, inserting images, erasing errors.   I've tried to go only iPad and not use the journal, but what happens is my brain craves pen/paper. Then I'll go only journal and my brains craves the creativity that I can express with the iPad.   So would I buy another Bullet Journal, kinda - I plan to buy another Leuchtturm1917, this time, I'll probably just get the 120 GSM version because the thick paper used in this journal is indeed amazing. _ #BulletJournal #Leuchtturm1917 #Things3 #GoodNotes #ipadnotes #petermckinnon
