Ryder Carroll’s first book on the Bullet Journal technique was released today and my copy arrived along with the Stealth Bullet Journal as part of a box set.
I’m already enjoying the perspective provided within its pages. There’s a lot of value in having a curated publication straight from the system’s creator.
A quick rundown of how I’m currently using Bullet Journal to manage my projects.
Pocket Notebook One
Monthly Log
Future Log
Collections
Pocket Notebook Two
Rapid Log intermixed with the Daily Log
The First notebook with my Collections and Monthly Log, Future Log has lasted over a year and I’m only 1/2 way through it. The second notebook for my Daily Log and Rapid Logging usually takes 8-12 weeks to fill up. Once done I swap it for a new one.
The pitfall of using pocket notebooks is that it requires me to be very concise. At some point I may need to create a Index notebook just to remind myself what’s inside which one as they get used up pretty quickly.
Admittedly, it can be counter productive to have a dozen of these floating around instead of a single larger notebook.
