My 2024 Bullet Journal Setup

[@amandarachlee]

hi friends!! WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS FOR 2024?? also make sure you check the description box for a secret giveaway! ❤ i worked hard making this video fun & different, so i hope you enjoy watching my 2024 bullet journal setup :) PS i have a bit of a cold which is why the voiceover might sound a bit congested LOL LOVE U GUYS & THANK U FOR JOINING ME ON MY 8TH YEAR OF BUJOING! ❤

I think letting go of "pinterest perfect" bullet journal mindset is the most freeing thing. I used to restrict myself so much in my spreads (what if somebody sees it and thinks it's weird/ugly?) and sure, they were very pretty, but they didn't feel like me. This past year I've been doing whatever I liked. Pink gallore? Bring it on. Made a mistake? Whatever, keep going. Have I done this theme before? Yes, I loved it, so I'll use it as many times as I like. And so on. I had realised I put too much effort into abiding by too many rules I made for myself for absolutely no reason at all. This year I let go and sure, 2023 bullet journal is not perfect, but I feel that this one I loved the most, and to me - it's the prettiest one so far. Take that leap!

[@Pinki-bq7vl]

I'm going through the same thing I hope I'll let the Pinterest perfect go in 2024 (sorry for my bad English, I'm not native) wish me luck 🤞

[@ashleymcgee3536]

What really helped me there was the comfort of knowing no one was ever going to look through my bullet journal. Sometimes if I was really proud of something, I would show it to my husband, but I think the thing that really gave me the freedom I needed to create with no strings attached was knowing I would not be benefiting in any way from it: it couldn't be monetized or turned into content. It wasn't going on social media. It was just mine. It became a source of pride for me and made me fall in love with creation for the sake of creation again.

[@russelcastro3811]

omg I love this. this made me think to do my previous themed spreads again🫶🏻

i really respect your accountability in the beginning. so many people i know have been turned off my bujo simply because they take a glance at spreads like yours and completely give up. i think that we should remember that this is an adaptation of bullet journaling by definition, NOT the standard! be creative, or not, do what makes you happy either way. love love love you amanda!!

Wow “let it be ugly” is such a good mantra. I myself have been pushing myself to sketch people more, I always hated doing it because I’m bad at it and so it would turn out ugly. But after forcing myself to just do it while I’m bored at work I’ve made so much progress. And yes there is A LOT of ugly sketches, but I’m just letting things be ugly. My goal for 2023 was to buy a car, which meant I needed a better more stable income, which meant I needed to take a chance and quit my job to to take on a full time position somewhere else with more responsibilities. And by September I had done it. I’m not sure what my goal for 2024 will be I like to wait until mid January early February to plan them. Give myself time to get through the holidays and rose coloured glasses of fresh beginnings.

[@carolschley7501]

I've been doodling with you since 2018, and I am so happy to see you rebuilding this artistic freedom and joy. It's been awesome watching you grow as an artist and businesswoman! I love this set up and I can't wait to doodle through 2024 with you.

2024 being leap year, Fredbert is definitely perfect theme. 🐸❤ What a genius thought.. Amanda 💯✨

This is EXACTLY the kind of energy I was wanting to create with my bullet journal spread for 2024! I'm working through living as a perfectionist and always being self-critical about any work I do in my bullet journal so next year I'm trying to go with the flow more and accept any "mistakes" I make in my bujo. I truly think great minds think alike Amanda! 😉

[@elladoodles7073]

Omg I’m obsessed this is so cute ❤ I love the return of fredburt 🐸

[@00Mercredi00]

I’ve been following your journey since 2017. I remember when you used to “draw your subscribers”. That year was the worst of my life, but you helped me get through it. Since then, I’ve done a lot of bullet journaling, and you’ve been a real help. Truly, thank you. Now, it’s hard to find the time for my bullet journal. I’ve become a mom and now have a 2-year-old. But I want to get back to it and I want my baby to see me creating things without fear or perfectionism.

[@girlscarf]

Something that happened to me last month was I developed this weird nervous habit, where if I made a mistake in the spread setup I'd cut the entire page out of my journal and start over... Embarrassing to say I ended up destroying a notebook's binding due to how many pages I cut out. One of the things I'm focusing on this year is keeping my mistakes, and working with them. So this video's message really resonated with me and I appreciate it.

[@anjellydonut]

YESS, i support imperfect bullet journaling! so many people always feel so intimidated to bullet journal, but there's literally no rules or expectations other than your own's. i always remind people that bullet journaling is meant to support *your* needs whether it's the opportunity to make more analog art or just to keep track of the simplest written out to-do list for the day! and this goes to any type of journaling honestly, whether it's bullet journaling, junk journaling, book journaling, etc. haha. i feel you though on having been part of the influence of artsy perfect bullet journaling, like my tiktok content can feel too perfect for some people, but in my eyes, i still see all the bad marker coloring strokes i made or the bad line art, and i've learned to let go because it's okay! like it's all just me growing as a creative person the more i doodle haha. i think people like us just happen to make artsy bullet journals because we happen to also be creatives as our professional career. long comment oop lol, but wishing you the best year ahead in 2024!! 🤎

[@nohirikipatriarche5750]

i was sitting at my desk to plan for 2024 in my denim doodle planner when i opened youtube and saw this video !! Ugh i’m so happy, thanks queen !!!

[@SimieIriarte]

the best part of this video for me was you spewing out all of your thoughts. not gonna lie, i came here expecting to see people agonizing over trying to achieve perfection, but i'm pleasantly surprised and happy to see a ton f people resonating with your feelings on this. I love how you acknowledged that your message got lost and that you've set your intentions on changing the narrative in the bujo world. looking forward to what's to come!

[@yellowdavis6081]

Fredbert being the theme for 2024 setup is just perfect!

[@kathlo3228]

I don't bullet journal but I still love to watch ur videos 🥺🥺

[@amandarachlee]

❤️❤️❤️

[@Obs0L337]

The most freeing thing I have done in bullet journalling is making intentional mistakes. Once it's not 'perfect' any more there is soooo much less fear of making accidental errors. Draw a line through a page! Cut something slightly wonky or a little too short. Smudge. On. Purpose. It's liberating when perfection is not longer on the table!

[@mariumaunali_]

i started bullet journaling 6 years ago but i stopped because it got too much to keep up with, so this was so important to see and hear because one of my biggest goals in 2024 is to restart doing things that used to bring me joy when i was younger that i just stopped doing and one of the biggest things i loved was bullet journaling. The word rebuild also hits so close to home for this same reason, because it aligns so deeply with the things i hope to recover from over the next year. My biggest hope for this year is to let go of so many responses i built based on fear and anxiety to rediscover who i am, and this video could not have come at a better time to remind me what matters and what is important. This was so inspiring and healing and this shift in perspective was so necessary, thank you so much amanda! i’m wishing you all the best for 2024 and i hope all of our goals and aspirations materialise. sending you all my love and best wishes🫶🫶🫶

[@JennyRose5875]

I’m so proud of you! I’ve been following you for years, maybe within the year or two that you started bullet journaling because I started just after. Watching you grow and learn about yourself and your style, what you want out of your life and making this video about you and slowing down a bit is so great 🎉 Letting go of the mindset of perfectionism and consumer inspired for lack of a better phrase makes me so happy. I love this setup and how simple but still cute it is ❤ You did a fantastic job and having this sense of planner peace in your spreads is so encouraging to see. I love your videos and I hope you keep growing and achieving your dreams!

[@jessislistless]

I'm really excited about doing more bullet journalling this year. I bought a beautiful premade journal and look forward to opening it every day. This year, I look forward to getting my BA to work full-time and clear up my credit card debt. I also hope to get my driver's license and begin my master's degree. There's a lot on my schedule, but unlike last year, I'm positively optimistic. ☺

[@PianoWanderings]

I struggled this past year with trying to keep up with what people like you do with their journals. Thanks for this post. You’re 100% right that the purpose of the journal is planning, organizing, productivity in our lives. The art is fun if you have time and inclination. I need my journal. The artsy stuff is a bonus.

[@RobMcGravyTrain]

I’m glad to hear you admit you might have had a hand in the pressure to make BuJo too perfect because I somewhat agree. That being said, kind of cool that you’ve reached a place where you’ve put so much thought and care into your videos that you have that level of influence. As a long time subscriber I’m proud of you!

[@julielavers3394]

Fredbert is adorable! What a cute and cheerful spread! I hope it makes you smile every time you open it. As for all the pressure, just be your authentic self with us, if there are people who don’t like that they are not your people! ❤

[@lil.ikuraa]

hi amanda! 🐸 I have been following you since 2019 and remember looking forward to each month's video. I felt like it took a lot of weight off of my shoulders having to decide what next month's theme would be. I have trouble drawing from memory so seeing how you drew your themes really helped me out! I felt less intimidated to draw by seeing how you drew and I honestly felt more encouraged to try. I really enjoyed your sentiment about contributing to this overwhelming world of needing to be aesthetic, artistic, and perfect in order to "bullet journal". you are rad and that was cool. thank you for sharing and reminding all of us to go back to the place of creating for fun. sending a warm cup of your favorite beverage and a head pat. ✨ P.S. I love Fredbert and I love your word of the year!

[@v.eronica]

I feel like I literally watched this video at the perfect time, everything you said about “taking the leap” and being creative without being afraid to make bad art is something that I’ve been wanting to learn and is the exact thing I need to hear, so thank you Amanda!! I honestly haven’t watched any of your artsy/ bullet journal videos in years, and while I grew up being obsessed with art/ drawing all the time, I gave up on trying to make art because of exactly what you talked about; I put way too much pressure on myself to make art that was good or perfect, so much so that I grew to hate making art as a whole. I’m not even sure how many years it’s been since I’ve taken the time to make art for fun and just for myself, and it’s probably been even longer since I’ve done that and liked the art I made afterward. However, recently I’ve been starting to think more and more about trying to make art again. While I’m worried about all of the pressure I might put on myself with any art I’ll try to create, I’ve noticed I’ve been getting a bigger and bigger desire to just “take the leap” and give it a try despite the fears and worries I have about it. Since you and your videos have always been so so inspiring for me, I decided to watch this video of yours today, having no idea you’d talk about the exact thing I’ve been dealing with and wanting to try to fix about myself, so thank you so so much Amanda. The fact that this is something you’re dealing with too makes me feel so much better about this and it makes me a lot more excited to take your advice and try art again next year, in general and without putting so much pressure on myself about how it’ll look. I just thank you so so much again for talking about all of this, and I hope this next year goes incredibly well for you!!💗💗

[@nikkimajean]

Really love that you stuck with the Fredbert theme. He's so adorable and it is after all for YOU! Love that you're focusing on what makes YOU happy in 2024 instead of just focusing on what you think "we" want (only put it in quotes because I personally love Fredbert too!). Wishing you all the best for 2024!!

[@JulietaCampos]

I love how you did a spread just for YOU! You already have such a big archive of options for others that it totally makes sense that you make things you like and not what others might like. The setup is super cute, I loved Fredbert.

[@jasminek0497]

Loved seeing Fredbert and your lovely little setup for 2024! Also, I’ve been struggling with making art in the past 2 years, cuz of lack of motivation or just feeling stressed about “messing up” or not making good art. But listening to you talking about how you should be proud of making art regardless and creating for yourself instead of trying to make something perfect was very heartwarming!! Thank you for being so real!! Been watching your bujo videos since 2017 and you always inspire me 🥰🫶🏻

[@trixiemcminx3036]

Also, I put a lot of pressure on myself when I started bullet journalling because I wanted to be as good as Amanda, even though I had no clue what I was doing. I ended up barely using my first year bujo. The next year I decided to do my own thing and it was very freeing. I changed it up month to month. I edited a lot out because, trying to do mood trackers and habit trackers and cool effects with my pages was just too overwhelming. I got down to things to do, things to get, things to create, that month and then a weekly spread. That's what currently works for me. I've done it the past two years and I'm happy. I still try to tweak it every now and again, try something new but, when life is as hectic as mine is, I strip it back to this.

[@graceainsleigh9777]

some of my goals for next year!! - get out in nature/sun more… this is a BIG one for me, walks, hiking, swimming, as long as i’m outside and not scrolling on my phone - boost my education!! I want to be more knowledgeable on real world topics-environment, history, expanding my vocab, etc. i plan to do this through reading and podcasts! - sleep hygiene!! i literally don’t sleep and when i do it’s horrible. i want to make a night and morning routine that works for me to help me get the rest i deserve!! these are just a few goals of mine but i definitely want to focus on improving myself this year to be a better person!

[@Esti89dec]

It makes me sad when people/critics dismiss all bullet journaling because they are not “artists”. You make beautiful and fun spreads. I do not. We can both embrace the bullet journal space and I have still always loved your videos. Best of luck next year rebuilding!!

[@brookedotjpg2279]

Something I’ve adopted is to go as artsy as my energy is feeling. Feeling low energy? Go super simple. Espresso surge? Go as hard as I want to, NOT what I feel like it should be to be perfect.

[@cricketunicorn]

I was so satisfied setting up my 2024 bullet journal that so many months start on a Monday this year whooooo dreamy! Also my word for this year is “Exhale”. I always have a word for the year. “Intuition” and “Courage” were two of my faves!

[@summergutierrex5535]

omg I love the message of basically just being okay with what we create and to not worry about perfection or making it look nice! I have been bullet journaling with you for 3 years now and I have been so focused on making mine look nice and presentable that I've let go of actually enjoying the process! I cannot wait to 'Leap into 2024' with a fresh idea in my head of what I want to do with my journal!

[@amandarachlee]

yesss the year of leaping! ❤️

[@ashleymcgee3536]

I really appreciate the sentiment this year. I too felt like last year I was looking for a different way to one-up myself month over month. As the spreads got more complicated and artistic, actually using the bullet journal, or even finishing the spreads, got harder and harder to accomplish. I really loved the wild ways my spreads challenged me, and I loved having a pencil in my hand every week, but I think the name of the game this year is going to be fun but simple. And I think that is going to be true of everything I do. Fun, but simple.

[@Parsleyyy234]

The first few minutes I relate so much to you. I’ve really having a hard time in thinking how to start my 2024 right ,and thats why I decided to do journaling, but there’s so many options and it really overwhelmed me and like I so scared that I’ll commit a mistake and miss out the best options out there,there’s so many things to do fix and change, so thank you for this, It really helped me calm myself and not overthink and worry too much.

[@anukasmunakas]

i love the attitude you chose! its similar to how i started bullet journaling as someone who isnt good at drawing. just went at it and did whatever i wanted and tried new things and figured out how to fix what didnt turn out good at first and ive gone a long way with what i am abke to do now!

[@charlottecolling]

I love this video Amanda! As someone who’s watched you since 2017, I have never stopped being impressed by your growth and art:) “Let it be ugly!” One of my goals this year is to write 1,000 words everyday, about anything, and anywhere that’s convenient:)

[@iaiameno]

I love scrapbooking so at the end of every month I leave 2 pages just to put photos and a bit of journaling from that month. It's my favorite part of my books!! And anyone who sees it loves it too

[@shakirarouse7125]

I hope that you’ll be adding that denim pen pouch to the shop soon cuz I need that in my life 🤩 I found this video really inspiring for so many reasons: 1) too often we live in fear and regret wondering what if 2) life is short so you should live it to the fullest and have the courage to take a chance on your heart’s desires (if you never ask, the answer will always be no) 3) as someone who has been a lil Doodle for awhile, you taking that leap and that chance on yourself is what brought us here… to 2023 with this amazing product line that is continuing to grow and bring joy to all of us! Thank you SO much for sharing this! Best wishes for the holidays and 2024 Amanda! 🫶🏾 Keep doodling ❤

[@neontanika2048]

I've watched like 5 or 6 2024 bullet journal set ups and this must be my favourite so far. Loved the message, loved the theme, loved how simply and cute everything was, and it really just eased my the silent tension growing in me. 2024 will be my second year of bullet journalling (with 2023 being not so great 😂) and I was really putting so much pressure on myself to make it perfect. Now, I've decided yo take it easy and just do what makes me happy 😊

[@cassidypeairson7687]

i have completely stopped bullet journaling for about 2 years now and i’m ready to pick it back up for 2024, but instead of using it like a planner, i want to use it like a memory journal & this was the inspiration i needed to get started again. thank you amanda!! (and i’m only 4 minutes in)

[@bluesypop]

I love bullet journal set up videos! This year I'm going digital because I've kind of grown a fear of making mistakes or forgetting to journal/leaving pages bare! Rebuilding and taking leaps was the perfect theme to hop back into! Love Fredbert so much! ❤

[@Nans2499]

This might be my favorite yearly setup from you and I’ve been watching you since you started this bujo journey! The message you put out there is fantastic because I too have failed many times at going on with my bujo because of the pressure to make it perfect and pretty. But it is for functionality and to have fun. Thank you!! I loved all the spreads and I NEED those dot markers!

[@smallstepsforward7018]

I love this!!! I'm a total perfectionist and have gotten trapped in my own expectations with bullet journaling before too. When I get a pretty new notebook I purposely make a bunch of mistakes on the first page so I won't be afraid to use it. Lots of misspellings, ugly color combos, failed doodles, you name it! I do it to remind myself that it is supposed to be a tool instead of a chore and to give myself love and grace over future mistakes.

[@its_shiv8126]

I'm really satisfied by what you said .I've been following you since 2021 . I love doing these setups but I couldn't create and maintain one . So I started doing minimal setup but always loved to see your setups and their themes . I appreciate your new approach.

[@solaiya1426]

When you said "something ugly" I wasn't expecting such a cute little froggo. He's adorable. I have been slacking with my bullet journal game (many pages not coloured in 😢) so I want to take more time for it in the next year and also finally lose weight to feel comfy in my body again.

[@yosoykibbles]

Just to share my experience with bullet journal. I started 2018 but failed because it is a lot of work. 2020, I started journaling again without any frills, just writing. I enjoyed it so much. the way I am free to write and make mistakes 😂✨✨❤❤ and now I am back here checking on organizing tips for my mastered way of chaos journal. I am not pursuing anything fancy, I am just looking for great hacks. And One of the hacks I realized while watching this is: goals! the goals are very integral part of measuring the gain we have made and is always ever changing! the reason why this kind of pretty journalling did not work out for me is because when I wanted to change my goals, I get this conflicted feeling of I don't have any space on my journal which made it so unsatisfying for me. So now, I am planning to buy a spairal journal thatI can add pages into so I would never feel guilty for ruining my precious artwork!!!!! I am so excited!! Conclusion: For bullet journal to be effective and enjoying, it needs to be very flexible and doesn't rely on artworks that much. Stick to the stuff you can do without hesitation and be very open in changes.. because that is life in a nut shell so should our journals be. Enjoyyy!!

[@imaniali6919]

My goals for the new year are 1. Live and love life as it is and go with the flow 2. Not to take things personally 3. Be grateful for the things I have rn 4. Look after myself more by taking breaks and exercise 5. Improve my communication in any type of relationships Don’t have an Instagram but have an email 😭

[@dewdropsonaleaf]

Thank you for the permission to simply create, rather than produce perfection. Such a healthy start to the year!

[@debbier2819]

Is not my style I have to say, but what I loved is the reminder that it should be fun. That’s what I am going to do, have fun while doodling my bullet jornal for next year. Thank you Amanda for being such a great inspiration 🤍

so inspired by this video! i kinda fell off bullet journaling after graduation and have kinda been in a weird limbo, but 2024 is giving me a good feeling i think and im ready to try it again! love seeing your business grow!! love this video!!!

[@mora5146]

Never set up a journal because I always felt so overwhelmed and never figured out what to do, but you make me feel inspired, I'm going to finish this video and get started. Thanks ❤

I adore Fredbert's appearances and the entire leaping frog theme for this year 🥰 Making scrapbook style spreads with photos in my planner/life journal is my favorite thing!

[@misshelen950]

Your intro is perfect! For the past two years I have bullet journalled less and less. (3 years ago I had a really successful BTS BE inspired journal and I haven't been able to match that theme since.) When I do remember to do a spread nowdays its just plain pencil or pen boxes - no decoration - which makes me sad. I think you're right, too many options means I can't decide what to do!

[@cosygracegames]

This is literally the cutest setup! Absolutely in love with the color scheme, the way you cut out parts of the page to make a calendar/album, and the cute lil froggo :) excited for 2024 now🥰

[@alyssasines5288]

This was beautiful!! I love seeing you enjoying the bullet journaling process again, Amanda! May 2024 be a wonderful year for you. My ongoing goal is intentional gratitude and positivity, sometimes we have bad days but we can't stay down forever.

[@hazirahberahim4184]

Omg the spread is perfect, i love how personal this spread is to you...its amazing to watch your growth and how your spread (esp the setup one) that usually made very follow 'able' to what u truly love to draw instead, i already had my spread planned but i do watch others not just for inspo but sometimes truly just for the vibe❤❤ wishing all of us in the bujo community amazing start of 2024🎉

[@sivasankari5471]

girl this is the prettiest and cutest journal ever 🥰

[@aavviki]

Your videos are so comforting I love it!! My goals for this year are to finally find some peace within myself, as I'm surrounded by a very hectic lifestyle. I need to ground myself, focus on my health and hobbies, and enjoy my life

[@euniquegene]

In 2024 I want to really focus on health as well as creativity! I used to enjoy crafting things so much but kinda stoped and I don’t remember why… hope everyone great health and time for themselves to get back into things they enjoy in the upcoming year! 2024! 🐉

[@thepensiveplanner]

Hey Amanda! This is such a cute setup. Some of my goals for 2024 include paying off my credit card debt (been working on this one since Oct 2021), implementing a no planner/stationery spend challenge, and getting more sleep. I hope you have a very successful and fun 2024.

[@aranzadt]

ive been watching for prob over 6 years and have loved every single spread but this message was so sweet and im so glad to see you let go of other peoples perceptions of what your bullet journal should be :) happy new year!

[@Roxane1178272]

Idk if I've ever commented before, but this is so cute and REFRESHING!! I love that you addressed the minimalism vs "artsy" and that what matters most is what works for you at this time! Such a cute spread.
