Bullet journaling has become wildly popular in the past couple of years, but what is bullet journaling? Many would describe it as equal parts day planner, diary, and written meditation. A bullet journal turns the chaos of coordinating life into a streamlined system that helps with being more productive and reaching personal and professional goals. The most important thing is a bullet journal needs to be effective. No matter how it can best serve its author is entirely up to them.
I started bullet journaling right before the pandemic hit in January of 2020. Little did I know that it would become a regular habit of mine and help me through the uncertain times. I learned what a bullet journal was from a combination of Pinterest, Instagram, and Tiktok those first couple of months. I tried so many different spread pages, themes, lists, and ways to organize all from getting inspiration from those apps. Over the years I found out what spread pages, themes, lists, and ways of the organization were beneficial to the different seasons of life I was in.

The theme this month I went with is the 70s. I absolutely love the color palette for this month! Definitely groovy vibes for August Bullet Journal.

This month I’m going to keep up with the daily spreads. The time blocking was very helpful in keeping focused on the set topic of to-dos. For this month I’m adding my habits, routines, and goal for the day to each daily spread. While getting rid of the three main focuses.
A reminder bullet journaling is always about function over form. Your form can messy, sloppy, or beautiful. It doesn’t matter what your bullet journal looks like. It’s about how it makes you feel, and how effective it is in moving you towards the things that matter to you. I hope this inspires you to start your own bullet journaling experience!
