I'm 41 years old and utterly impressed by the organisational skills and motivation of a young woman more than half my age. I admit I wish I was more like you, back when I was 17 and more so even now. Way to go honey!

[@KP-rh5qz]

aussie vetnurse pro - I feel the same way as you do. I’m 43 and just heard about bullet journaling a week ago.

[@monicasoyombo3360]

AGREED 100%

[@nameissturdy1390]

Same. And such a creative and beautiful way to stay organized!

44 here and I agree!!

[@ultravioletpisces3666]

Its just that we are getting older ;) *ducks and runs*

[@jomape1997]

When I start my journal, I’m going to put “Inconsistent journaling” at the very front

[@recoveringsoul755]

Low Expectations would be good too. I have "planned" for decades successfully, but not this bujo stuff. First attempt was 2020 and I found it annoying that the pages were not pre-dated and I had to waste tons of time drawing my own calendars. Some pages were pre-filled at the beginning, about 6 months worth. But I had to just journal on blank pages because I needed to write more stuff there. Then I was able to make the 2nd half work a little better. Finally figured out I could do my own art instead of the crappy looking flowers they had. Spent lot of time with the doodles, trying to think of stuff to draw. And had to draw forest fires, dams breaking, hurricanes, murder hornets, prisoners getting out of jail free, all kinds of high strangeness. I wanted to record reality, not some pretty little lies. I'm thinking of using a mob with torches and pitchforks for the "protests" but I saved a spot for that in June, and I was remembering my father and it's a happy page right now, I hate to ruin it with ugliness. Maybe I'll cover it with a post it.

[@nicolebedford3517]

WOW! I wish I was as organized as you at 17. You are such an inspiration! #subscribed

[@ioanahayman]

Nicole Bedford Awwwh that's so sweet, thank you! ❤️😉

[@melissamitchell7016]

Seriously! I wish I could have been as organized as you at that age. I loved planners, I always have. But I wish I would have been bullet journaling at that time.

[@maiyandersson9694]

Same here ❤❤

[@Niklas0657]

I wish I will be half as organized when I‘m 50... this is really impressing.

[@TheShamanWitch72]

WOW WHAT A JOURNAL.

[@yayoos6070]

Can I offer you to watch my channel

[@vitaminute]

please do a note taking video!! would be super interested in watching it :)

[@ioanahayman]

nielgne72 Aww thank you 😉 And I sure will!

[@hpope1130]

vitaminute I am excited for the note taking video. I'm in a number of conferences and meetings each day and my notes are horrendous and usually have to be rewritten or I'm scrambling trying to type them into OneNote as the meeting is happening and I always feel I'm missing something.

[@recoveringsoul755]

I've heard of the Cornell note taking system and was hoping my kids (in their 20's now) would learn it and good study habits, but the one who really needed it didn't take that class

[@purpledoneright]

You should do a "1 month in my bullet journal" series! That way you can show exactly how you use you bullet jpurnal and your notebook together.

[@ioanahayman]

Hmm, that would be cool! How does that work, is it filming every day what I do? I'm worried that'll be too long and people won't be interested (even this video was super long and rambly I think - maybe I'm just overly critical) 😜

[@purpledoneright]

Mistral Spirit you should look up boho berry in youtube she just finished a 1 month in her bullet journal series, just to give you an idea. But if it was me I would plan in the morning, review at night, film anything significant during the day, and edit it all together. But I really like the idea of you showing how you use your 2 books together, and some note taking..... I think you could do a 10 to 20 minute video everyday (depending on the day) and it wouldn't be too long and very interesting. The nice thing about doing a video everyday is you don't have to explain everything at once.

[@ioanahayman]

Amberley Full Ahh I love Boho Berry! I've never seen her month videos though, but I just checked them out and they seem super cool! I think I'll give this a try for at least a few days and see how it goes. Thanks for the idea!! 😉

You're very welcome, I'm so glad to hear that! :-)

[@Nini1m]

she is so smart and so young

[@FibroFitWarriors]

Love the idea of the page of things you love about yourself and the world. I’m adding that to my list for my 2018 bujo. Thank you!

[@ioanahayman]

Thank you! It's a really great spread, glad you were inspired!

[@andreawalsh4682]

Me tooooo!!

[@mariana_reads]

Wow, I was shocked when I read you are 17. I am 17 and I wish I had a stable and functional organization method/system like you! You inspired me to start doing something about it!

[@sruti19jan]

Sometimes I wish I had a stable mind, let alone stable organisation method, back when I was 17

[@lili-je7hz]

I’m thinking of starting a bullet journal and this is the most helpful video I have seen so far Edit: thx mistral spirit for liking my comment❗️❕❗️❕❗️❕❗️❕❗️❕❗️

the whole book looks like art 😂😍

[@ioanahayman]

Haha, thank youu! :-P

[@majorydzingai1668]

I thought I was the only one who was not a teenager here, I am impressed.

[@amithsadai7466]

Out of all the bullet journal videos out there, I always come back to this one. Love it!

[@candy2325]

I watch the show “Friends” a lot and this organization reminds me of what Monica would do lol. Super neat and tidy and streamlined

[@loreyxplayz8]

Danganronpa reference?

[@KeksFanxXx]

Wow, never saw someone as organized as you before. This journal really is a huge inspiration!

[@lubas9978]

You got some really nice ideas! I discovered the bullet journal much later in life after I was done with all education and it has been a life changer for me. I only wish I had this during school and college, it would have been such a helpful tool and a good memory of my learning. I got some good ideas from you for my 2018 journal! Thanks! More students need this.

[@ioanahayman]

Thank you!! It really is amazing, and I'm glad you've discovered it! ;-) All the best with your 2018 journal.

[@isssaaax]

This is my favourite bullet journalling video by far!!

[@thisgirlrocks6469]

I can watch this all day. Anything about books, paper, and organizing is all I need in life 😁... good work 👍😎

[@nitanice]

I'm 56, and I instinctively did this with note-taking in school. I was always top of the class. When I later met folks who went to boarding school, they were TAUGHT to do this. This really should be taught in some ways in all schools.

[@sruti19jan]

This is by far, the BEST video on KZbin I've come across related to bullet journalling( and I've been watching those almost daily for two years now)

[@HooksNspoons]

Finally a bullet journalist my age! Just found you keep up the good work!

[@chorei1663]

I want to use the word apocalist now too because I never liked the word "bucket list". It just has a morbid feel to it.

[@Tcapr]

We love this baby and actually it reminds us of our company President. She writes like that. Best of luck to you little lady. Proud of you

[@elfeneule103]

Thank you! 💚 This is very inspiring. Thank you for all the information. 😀 I am looking forward to the videos you promised. 💚💚💚

[@lipamanka]

I'd say this is one of my favorite bujo tutorials on youtube, and I've been corroborating many all week! This will be very helpful when I start my bujo.

[@ioanahayman]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Danielle-nz9tn]

I really admire all the energy, thoughtfulness, mindfulness, and intention with which you approach life. You are really inspiring me to take some concrete steps in envisioning->planning->creating a life that is more of what I want, through mindfulness and focusing on consistency and small steps. This is a great way to keep many big intentions in mind and keep putting some kind of energy into bringing each idea closer to fruition, even when they seem far away and may take a lot of time to be fully birthed! Thank you for sharing this!!!

[@sophiesmiley4706]

This is literally the most beautiful journal I have ever seen

[@estellacohen7122]

Geez...I never thought of chronicling my dreams! Thanks for the idea.

[@CutCopyPasta]

I am just impressed that you like to take notes and are so organized about doing so! I'm 21 and am a mess.

[@dannhorne9782]

Love your note taking system. You are a teacher's dream!

[@samouhi]

This is soooo lovely. I’m much much older but I’m so inspired by your discipline and maturity.

[@Chan-bw4ci]

I absolutely love your "things I like about me" & "things I like about the world" pages!

[@waboosje]

I like the way you made your bujo and how you explain it all. Thanks you it's lovely!

[@OrganizedPlannerChic]

I love your bullet journal!

[@kellystacks7858]

You are one brilliant gal. Coming from an adukt suffering from ADHD ... I really appreciate this ♥️ Organization goals! Why don't they teach planning like this in school?! Bravo Bravo !!

[@ioanahayman]

Thank you! It makes me so happy to hear that!

[@tauriankkf]

Wow! So wheel organized and personalized! I loved watching your video. My daughter and I just started bullet journaling and I can't wait to see how they evolve.

[@thatbrianagirl]

This is the most amazing and organized bullet journal. You are incredible, I wish I knew about this style of taking notes when I was in school, so awesome! Tank you so much for sharing all of this!

[@lbf1625]

You're impressively organized and mindful for a young person. :)

[@emyrc3903]

WOW! You are going to do amazing things in this world! Keep up all the amazing planning, creating, publishing, etc!

[@rdms919]

I go back to this video a lot for when I’m setting up my spreadsheet because it has so many good ideas, but I only recently noticed a tiny detail: you were in DECA! I love DECA and I’m so happy to know that a DECA member is creating high quality content like this!

[@karinafrost168]

Such a beautiful handwriting it’s so pretty and structured !❤️

i'll be starting bullet journaling from regular planning. out of the tons that i watched yours is what i like the most! thank for this! really helpful.. God bless :)

I like the idea of the apocalist. Thanks for that!

I love your Bullet! It's gorgeous... I wait for all your videos!!!

Best bullet Journal I've ever seen! Im planning to start with mine for months watching many videos looking for ideas and I was always lacking something, but now I think I found my Best inspiration :D

[@mauriciomota6560]

watched the whole freaking video because it was so fascinating! your bullet journal is a huge inspiration.

[@ioanahayman]

Oh my gosh! Thank you for sticking through ;-) I'm glad it was inspiring!

[@maddie.bolland.7]

Your journal is absolutely beautiful! Thanks for making this video, it's very inspiring!

[@plummyzebra]

Hearing the planes in the background is making my day

[@Eybmie]

That was seriously impressive. First off have to compliment your hand writing I have NEVER seen such clear and neat handwriting. Second just based off your hands your skin looks so healthy! As for the journal I really love the ideas you have especially the when feeling down about yourself thing. I tend to be hard on myself so a spot to write something positive when feeling blah is a great idea.

[@morganbrown8567]

Oh my goodness. Beautiful! Even your notes are

[@MsJprichards]

Great note taking! Awesome bullet journal. Love your video, very inspiring young adult!

[@karenkoutsoumbaris6308]

Thank you so much!!

[@lauramacias6916]

Wow! I just want to say... I really wish I would’ve thought like you when I was 17. You have a really good way of thinking about life and future and of course your plans. Really, congrats and keep it up. I totally loved the list, I may try it on my bujo. Greetings from Mexico 🤗

[@AuthorKatKaye]

Love your bujo! Thanks for the great ideas!

[@loussharman3969]

Just wanted to say a big thank you for this video!! It helped me so much in creating my own bullet journal 1

I'm so glad! :-)

[@ncwest1984]

17? I want my daughter to be just like you! Amazing!

[@hpope1130]

NattieMaddie Luv agreed... if my daughter could grow up to be as organized and put together as her I would be one proud mama

[@marysalinas6146]

When I have my own kids one day I'm going to instill this onto them.

[@allaboutthis3979]

hey hun, Nattie, Heidi, and Mary... you got to love your daughters and be proud of them as they are hun, they are perfect as is, don't try to turn them into someone else... they will love u more if you see them for who they are, even if they are messy and unorganized on the outside, they may be more organized internally. if you want to change someone to be more organized then change yourself because that is your only right

[@appreciatedevestated7722]

All about This your right, All parents should not force their children from what they just want them to be, Every parent should be proud of them even theyre unorganized or messy because in the future they might be not good at being organize or doing things like this but they have a talent on something just not like this, and if you just support your child in what he/she wants, he or she will be much more comfortable about what he/she wants when they will grow up.

[@Abluemorphobutterfly]

Were YOU like this at 17? Are you like this now even? Stop projecting your value judgements and validation onto your child.

[@devine2480]

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL OH MY GOD!

[@stephaniestephenson6662]

great video. your handwriting is so neat x

[@user-ho4tb5qe7v]

Ooohhh, these are some really great pages. I'm going to be starting Uni soon so I've been thinking about doing a bullet journal to organize and your video has really helped think of some ways to organize my own journal so thank you!

[@sayantanibhattacharjee.772]

More sophisticated and no unneccessary things to craft overdramatically, where the basic and important lists and notices are missed among all the decorations ! Better than others

[@atlaslexx]

I’m not 17 yet but I’m starting a bullet journal for 2019 and this is really inspiring me to try new things and improve! ❤️❤️

[@mkyoder4179]

The best organized and appealing journal I have seen by far! Loved your video and how you organized the script. Love your voice and the video.

[@Papeeshka]

Thank you so much! I am so inspired by you to get my bullet journal started. You are extremely smart and logical. And you are very good at teaching. I wish I was this organized. Hopefully the practice of bullet journaling will help with that!

[@ioanahayman]

Thank youu, you're very kind!

[@stefaniegoh886]

I recently started doing my own "Plan with Me" videos and I've been binge watching bullet journal videos, and I realised all the people I'm been enjoying are all younger than me! I feel so old at 22! Haha. I really enjoy how you explain what you do instead of just a flip through as well. :)

[@adamkellythorn1141]

Super video! Seen quite a few Bujo videos over the last week or so but yours definitely appears to be the clearest in what you want from it. Some great ideas thanks!

[@ioanahayman]

Thank you! :-)

I'd say among all the bullet journal videos I've watched this one is the most practical and beautiful! Definitely gonna follow this for my 2019 bullet journal. Thank you. Also you got a new subscriber!

[@megh_na]

I love love love your videos...u really do have an excellent explanation skill...I love how u did your BuJo...and ur philosophies are so much familiar to me...and trust me...our bullet journalling processes are pretty similar...not too minimal but not too decorative....u r my no. 1 inspiration now...I saw this video over 10 times

Well, thank you so much ! I'm just starting bullet journaling and i have to say that your video was the most helpful ! I watched a few set ups and flip throughs videos to get how to do entries and organise the whole diary and yours was by far the best, especially because i'm working the same way as you do on the color coding and on the kind of entries you have ! Thank you again, keep going, this is great ! :)

This is honestly one of the most useful bullet journal videos I have ever watched. I am using this as inspiration for some spreads to use I LOVE your habit tracker with steps. I always have a hard time with habit trackers because I find I end up half doing a habit and just mark it as done when really I've only partly been "eating healthy" for example.

[@ioanahayman]

So glad to hear! And you know what, I do the same thing! It's better to partially do it then not do it at all though. Small steps ;-)
