Bullet Journal✍
We are told to write dairy from a very young age. We do write it then but as we grow up this seems like an useless task. But the habit of logging your day and doing it in long term is extremely beneficial.
Journaling is a very effective way of organizing our day and reflecting upon it. Everyone has there own way of doing it. But today I’m gonna share with you the Bullet Journal method, popularly known as BuJo.
This method was first introduced by Ryder Carroll. The main agenda of this method is Rapid logging i.e. capturing information in bullet points. As our mind is for having ideas and not storing them, ideas come and go and if we don’t jot it down immediately its gone.
Lets start with the basics of Bullet Journaling. Ryder says “If Rapid Logging is language the BuJo is written in, Bullets are the syntax.” There are different types of bullet.
Tasks
Tasks are represented by a simple dot “•”. These are the daily activities that you have to do. If completed just cross the dot and if the task is not needed to be done then just cut the entire task.
Events
Events are represented by the open circle “o” Bullet. These can be birthdays, meetings or any date related entry. You can log them before or after the event.
Notes
Notes are represented with a dash “–”. These are any ideas, thoughts, information, observation. You can even add these to events and task and nest them.
These were the bare minimum of BuJo but I will keep sharing more concepts of Bullet Journaling in the coming editions ranging from collections and future log to monthly planner and migration.
