HOW I PLAN MY MONTH ⭐ Bullet Journal Method!

[@annaft_]

I loved this video because it is the first one where things are real and usefull, not fullof paints and distractive elements! Thanks a lot

[@JodiTrudeau]

I love that you don't get hung up on making it look all pretty. I have yet to start mine because I didn't have the time to sit down and do all the work to make it look all pretty and fancy. I love that yours works! Thanks for the video.

[@aalim4871]

Your sticky note system is so cute! Thanks for sharing! It is way less overwhelming versus task listing.

[@stephanienoel2902]

I love bullet journals! I currently have two bullet journals and I found them super useful. It changed my life. Thank you for showing us your process for planning your month. Awesome channel!

[@lyndayoung6028]

I would love to see how you use your Google Calendar and I love the sticky note idea, I plan on implimenting it this month with my content calendar as well!

[@MMH21998]

While I love to watch the other BuJo videos, the method seemed unattainable because I don't draw or write in calligraphy, nor do I really want to. Even the minimalist BuJo videos are too fancy for me 😄 The moment you pulled out your pen and wrote October without doodads and scroll letters my brain was like... "You can do it that way?" Thank you for taking the time to share. Off to get started I go!

[@KilmaTempa]

Why do I get so darn excited about planning and scheduling?! I used to be so fly by the seat of my pants and now I'm like... nope. Plan, plan, PLAN!!!

[@Thinkbiggolocal]

just started a bullet journal about a month ago - love it!!! Keeps me organized and I get to express a little creativity too!

[@adriannebehning5353]

Sitting with my new journal in my lap as I watch this. I have been putting off setting it up, so when I saw this vid I took it as a sign that I should just do it. As a new podcaster, I need to establish my system to combat the scatterbrained-tendencies of this night shift nurse. Thanks for the inspo.

[@SuziFevens]

I've moved to a bullet journal since traditional calendars don't really work for me but I love how you use them. This year I had a giant wall calendar that I used to track all projects and deadlines and used the sticky note method but love your idea of using them right in the bullet journal and I think I'm going to steal it!

[@MrsStevenBrown]

I hopped here from your 2019 video to see this one first! So glad I did! Gonna snag a bullet Journal and try this! Thankyou! 😎👍🏻

[@CasaChiesi]

Super cool to see the way you set up your Calendar. Thanks Amy!

[@vee496]

I LOVE my Google calendar, it is literally my brain on my computer. I really do like the idea of having a separate journal just for work tasks though. I'm getting ready to launch a membership site and this might be exactly what I need to start planning content in a separate area. I'm gonna try this out, thanks doll!

[@margaretstortenbecker5715]

Thank you so much for this video! I've been looking all over for editorial calendar ideas for the bullet journal. So glad I found this. Regarding the daily logs: I use both a weekly and a daily log. I find having that whole week to look at helps me get an idea of what I can tackle each day...and I have gotten so much better at estimating just HOW much I can fit into a given day since starting that. That's what works for me! Thanks again! I'm loving your channel!

[@AmyTV]

+Margaret Stortenbecker yay!! I’m going to try that this month! Thank you M!

[@margaretstortenbecker5715]

Amy Schmittauer Can't wait to see how that goes for you!

[@HusamEzzi]

Yes please, I'd love to see more videos about your bullet journal.

[@youtubesurfer7271]

Love seeing your systems and how you organize. More please!

[@janinejohnson1898]

I'd appreciate more organizational suggestions and bullet journal suggestions! Your channel realllllly helps me. Thank you!

[@mariayanakakisweeks8697]

Love your idea of a weekly vs daily! I, too, fill up my days with waaay too much, and frustration sets in quickly thereafter. Going to try out this weekly method instead! I use digital always but live the tactile experience of writing things down.

[@DaryaAPapko]

Planning for the month ahead is SUCH a good idea! I make daily goals, but monthly ones will definitely tie everything up/ put it all in perspective. Thank you :-)

[@knockout_3807]

I have been watching your videos for my vlogging progress and learning and i really have learned a lot from your each and every videos ...Your videos are really good for the new vlogers ......thank you!!!!!

[@PadHopper]

Finally!! I'm so happy to find your video. I have been scouring the interwebs for weeks looking for a basic bullet journal user. That's not easy. You are the first , aside from Ryder Carroll, who I have seen using a basic pen. Thank you so much for this video.

[@betsyjoythompson]

I LOVE the sticky note method! So much easier than crossing out and rewriting

[@jennyrapacz9396]

I enjoyed this video because it featured another way of doing the bullet journaling with the sticky notes, I do not trust my own handwriting so I would have chosen a different journal with the graph paper- and I got some good ideas to get those sticky notes but I think I would prefer to getting the clear ones to fit the that on the far left to write it down and carry over to the next month I believe. Thank you!

[@jennyapiag]

You have just saved my life!!! I so needed this video in my life!!! I've been struggling with scheduling/planning my content for social media vs YT and business vs fun. I would have never thought of this technique but you've broaden my horizons and given me some serious inspiration!! Thank you thank you thank you!!! 💖💖💖

[@thatbberg]

I think my world has been changed by that tip to add the first week of next month's at the end of this one! That's brilliant!

[@AmyTV]

+Brittany Berger soooo helpful!

[@janetwilliams9216]

I have literally been binge watching all your videos and after each one I genuinely learn something new. I admire your vast knowledge and how you have your life organised. But I was wondering if you could make a bullet journaling for students please xx Thanks Amy ❣Great video once again

[@NtathuAllen]

Thanks Amy, I found that really helpful seeing your process, especially as you use pen and paper/journal. I like this style of behind the scenes planning process. Definitely more. Thank you

[@catshycrafts]

I really like this bullet journal video. I have watched other bullet journal videos that focus more on how they LOOK rather than how they work as far as planning goes. Of course I love watching the artsy ones for inspiration but this one actually made me TAKE ACTION. I am not a vlogger (yet) but I adapted the calendar to include blog posts and newsletter content. Do you have a separate calendar for social media/newsletter/blogging?

[@carmengracepuentes7953]

Happy March! I wanna restart my monthly planning and polish it off. I'm relaxing for bed at 2:05 a.m. CT

[@Adrianaisjawsome]

Your handwriting is my handwriting and I am relieved. 😆 everyone else has calligraphy ass handwriting

[@chaitanyasurepally8249]

It's quite interesting scheduling our days ahead.

[@swoot87]

Love this video, especially seeing that you’re not trying to be perfect! Ugh we all need to let ourselves be human right? Can you do a video on ways to stay organized and productive when you work 9-5 at a company?

[@danielleN101]

Just found your channel, loving it! Really love that you say "in regard to" and not "in regards to," such a pet peeve of mine!

[@friendsoverfiftyguidetolif7699]

Love the organizational system for your video and podcasting episodes! Having to physically create a new calendar every month and move sticky notes manually would make me CRAZY though! I put all of your great organizational ideas to use using Trello (free app for computer and phone). I've used many other organizational apps -- including the draw your own calendar with a ruler and sticky note method! Trello works for me for 3 main reasons: It is visual like your journal, I can move lists and items on lists to other lists and copy and create new lists saving a ton of time and I can keep everything in one place visually accessible like Content Buckets, Resources, Tutorial Videos, High/Medium/Low priority lists, etc. There's a great video someone created about how to use Trello for your video editorial calendar that got me started using it for mine. In this video, you've added even more to my editorial calendar system. Thanks so much for your awesome and helpful videos. Love, love, love your conversational approach in your videos talking directly to your viewer! And CONGRATS to you and Vincenzo on your wedding! I remember watching you two fall in love on Blab!

[@StacyBraiuca]

Amy, the sticky notes are bomb! Reminds me of my Trello boards

[@SparkySven]

Doing all this work on paper @ 2017 is old school my dear Amy. That's what Google calendar and or MS Outlook is for. All the time you spend moving your blue & pink sticky notes is edit event in your calendar (non-paper kind). I do need to it more and prioritize more efficiently so if you have any bright ideas and methods with non-paper tools would be sweet like you are.

[@300bee]

Amy before I’ve seen this video my life was a mess!! This was so easy and yet so effective!! Thank you for the video and tips B

[@mdmkoo]

I love this! I wanna share how I doodled my ideas all over the notebook too... when my channel gets more subscribers. But yay! Your video gave me a new idea!! (My logo is actually a doodle in my notebook while planning for my youtube luanch in july 😊)

[@BeckWynta]

I used to have my daily tasks but as you said it just gets over filled with tasks that never get done so now I do is rough monthly one with all the videos I need to record and schedule then work weekly and find the urgent and important AND the important but not urgent stuff gets done in a timely manner 😊 great vid x

[@nadjalynge8333]

It’s really a good video! I really want to see many more of them. I love to see how you plan 😍

[@AmyTV]

+Nadja Lynge okay great! I’ll work on that!

[@cadiagroup7027]

Amy i followed your lead and went over to look at a few videos on "how to Bullet Journal" for beginners. I'm now intimidated due to my complete lack of artistic ability and feel that most of the great ones are actually designers etc who haven't found the right project yet?!? eek! So much time spent on designing up pages look and feel rather than the content. Anyway I'm back here now to watch you do your thing - more soothing and useful;-) Go girl!

[@eloiseezzy4886]

Never heard of bullet journals. Interesting thanks!

[@oh72911]

Yes more organization and planning, please! Thank you!

[@lenkaontherun]

Love the bullet planning for videos! Need to do that too, thank you, Amy. :)

[@EpicHiha]

Love your sticky notes idea, definitely gonna try it ^_^

[@jenndelbosque9980]

Just found you and I've been binging for like two days straight. LOVE your videos, you're hilarious but SO insightful and helpful! Thanks for all you do! Keep on keepin ON! :)

[@randnatsheh9028]

I really like your planning videos, keep them up 👍🏻

[@kindermozart9323]

Yes please!!!! More organisation tips!! And how you organise your day. Diary, list... xx

[@AmyTV]

+Kindermozart awesome! Did you see the video I made call d How To Plan Your Day?

[@kindermozart9323]

[@gargiiyengar7418]

[@jc3teacher265]

Amy, good stuff! Much appreciated!

[@AmyTV]

+j. j. Thanks for being here 🙏🏻

[@jc3teacher265]

You are welcome. I have learned a lot about vlogging, editing, etc.

[@MichelleCoxPhotography]

I have not started a bullet journal yet but I need to start I think... It looks like too much fun! :)

[@RavenSelenite]

This is something I definatly need to do! Thank you Amy

[@MegOhKay]

Oooh I may need to do the weekly log as the daily is overwhelming!!

[@AmyTV]

+Meg Kerns omg yes there is a balance 😬

[@amreenshaikh6426]

Hey yes would like to learn more about bullet journaling but a minimalistic journaling

[@GusDaCosta]

Love this Amy, Started bullet journal after watching this video.

[@ctrue3120]

So helpful again. Thank you.

[@KafoopleLand]

OH my goodness I loved this video so much! You really helped me visualise the way need to plan and organise! Thanks so much, Amy !

[@CozyWriter1307]

Amy! Can you do a video about how to plan long term so you get started on projects right away and avoid waiting till the last minute?

[@NicoleKristine]

I love this, I’m so into the whole pen and paper deal xoxo love ya girl

[@bewe8572]

Would love to see more organizational videos! :)

[@MarleyJaxx]

I plan my month with my Panda Planner which I love SO much! I have heard and seen friends who do Bullet Journal, and I think it's nice. Would like to try if it would work for me. Do you like follow the exact way to bullet journal or you do which suits you best?

[@lacasabloom]

Your videos are always so great and clear!! Thank you!!! I already tried your calendar blocking method and I love it! I don't use BuJo yet but I'm considering it now. I have an happy Planner and I like the fact that I can add/move the pages and it works as a bullet... I just think is time saving. Even if I'd love to do my own bullet journal (my creative side) I think it's a bit on the time consuming side. I have a question : how many tasks per day/week do you schedule? I'm struggling with that and with consistency!! Thank you so much for all your help, I love your work!!! 👌

[@kellyjezek7140]

Great video - always wondered how people use the bullet journal in action thank you!! Hey what type of stand do you use for your videos ? You said you were recording w your iPhone - wondered what you used - tripod? Also what video edit software do you use ? Thank you !!

[@AmyTV]

+Kelly Jezek great question! I added an affiliate link to the stand for the iPhone I used to get an overhead shot in the description. My video editor is Final Cut Pro.

[@sweetlemons15]

i am looking forward to trying this but i think i will have to add more color

[@TubeQuestions]

Really needed this video! Thanks amy :)

[@AmyBeingMum]

Id love to hear more about planning, organising & bullet journalling please! ❤️

[@sigonischaap9799]

Absolutely love your videos and pretty much everything about you!! Can I ask what you used to hold your iPhone above you while you record??!

[@illuminateHart]

haha! yes agreed about the daily log-- i've been overwhelming myself so much. oops

[@CatieD]

Thank you!!! So helpful 💟

[@TheLaIvana]

You somehow remind me of Donna from Suits TV show :)

[@JEANSCAPRI]

Her sass does ;)

[@nishijakki3801]

Awesome. ..... 😊😍❤ .. I hope I would be able to plan like you do in future 😊🙌🙏

[@AmyTV]

+Nisha Singh you can! Go after it!

[@nishijakki3801]

Amy Schmittauer Yes definitely, i am working on it 😊😘😘❤❤

[@TheCourtneyProject]

Going after that life I want one bullet journal page at a time! 🙌

[@CiecieNewson]

I love the concept of a bullet journal, but I'm just too lazy to do one. LOL I just buy a large calendar with month view, week page, and a to do list and work from there. But I bet this way stays in your mind better. ~Smile!

[@AmyTV]

+Ciecie Newson that why I don’t get fancy with illustrations. I like the method a lot but I do only what I have time to build for myself.

[@phyliciajoykloes]

I need to start doing this.

[@VulcanOnWheels]

2:06 What's that I see in your mirror that looks like a square?

[@gurjodhsingh6216]

Amy your hand writing and mine are almost same .By the way I already watched your other bullet journal video.

[@AmyTV]

+gurjodh singh nice! Thank you!

[@NikiIllustrates]

Really enjoyed this Amy. How do you track your daily to dos then? x

[@TonyThomas10000]

Amy is so organized! What book are you using?

[@deborahmeyers7839]

Love this xx

[@KimberleyHopkins]

While looking for some inspiration on creating vlogs I found your book, Vlog Like a Boss. Almost finished it on Audible and am loving it!! Decided to take a break to catch one of your vids. Awesome content. Thanks for giving me motivation to get some things done!

[@AmyTV]

Thank you so much!

[@cceriouslyy]

would like to see an update to ur bullet journal long in the future!

[@a_few_pointers]

@amyshmittauern Where are you speaking on Real Estate (noticed it on your calendar lol)? I ask because I would love to hear your thoughts. Also, will it be recorded possibly? Maybe I can find some real estate videos in your library of videos!

[@pamelastonetv5884]

I love your videos. Question, do you have a video on how you do your content calendar? If so, I would love to see it.

[@AmyTV]

A video called HOW I PLAN MY VIDEOS

[@620annika]

More like this please!

[@jenniferan9019]

Ur awesome! thank you for this

[@saintluke2nd]

I'm coming to Portland on the 14th!

[@AmyTV]

+Luke Rogers funny!!

[@angelgallardo]

Great videos!! Just subscribed!

[@xxanfaxx]

Deam! ur pretty!!!!

[@ericsewelljr]

Haven't watched in awhile but this was great

[@destinydejesus4500]

I find it difficult to travel sometimes because of my dog. Any suggestions on finding dog sitters? Do you use apps like Wag or do you put your dog in a boarding place? Is this added to your budget?

[@jessiealice790]

How are you so creative and organized? I don’t have that in me right now and don’t know how to bring it out

[@hsjacobus]

Would it be easier to make the month Oct, Nov, etc the post it note portion and not have to make new and rearrange? If your not writing in the cells their reusable right?

[@rokkenrobyn6462]

OMG WE DO OUR LOWERCASE a's THE SAME

[@rocior3484]

This is so helpful. My inlaws got me my very desired bullet journal and I have refused to touch it bc I don't have the art supplies yet. I know that's dumb, and I am going to start making simple pages.

[@CashFlowDiary]

Hey Amy, thanks for your videos and book. I’ve started vlogging and am enjoying the process. Anyway, can you tell me which picture profile you used for this video please? I’m assuming it was the A6500 as well, but if not please let me know. Thanks.

[@AmyTV]

+CashFlowDiary Auto. Sony RX100.

[@TheChicLife]

I've never used the bullet journal method, but it looks nice and straightforward. I have an Erin Condren that I like to decorate, though I don't do calligraphy. :P I read your book a couple weeks ago and have been working on my editorial calendar. I started a Google Sheet, but I think I like this approach with the sticky notes better. :) Though maybe a combination of the two would be good for me? Hmm...Sheets for idea tracking and planner for scheduling? Thanks for sharing!

[@ElvannReacts]

Bullet Journal video by Amy, I hear the angels sing!!!! :D

[@AmyTV]

+Elvann LOL I’m trying!

[@ElvannReacts]

It's working! I want more of that! Bujo videos are my main source of stress relief in life, no kidding

[@StephanieMarie]

This is the most obscure question but where did you find those sticky notes? I need some that size but can only find the small square ones which are slightly too long for my space. So I'm having to cut them! I've had that size in the past but can't find them anymore! I loved this video! 💗

[@MarieHelene77]

Loved it. But now I wonder, don't you forget things when not everything is in the same place? I feel like every time I've tried to split things over different planners (digital, BuJo etc) I ended up forgetting to look at ALL of them daily and ended up missing things?

[@AmyTV]

+Marie Helene D the only other place where tasks are tracked are on digital platforms that my assistant tracks. She doesn’t let me forget anything lol. So I keep stuff I can’t lose and don’t have her to follow up on in the bullet journal.

[@MarieHelene77]

There you go. I need an assistant ;-)

[@cherylq-u8916]

Thank you for the great videos! I own a business and also have a 3 and 5 year old. I felt buried under tasks. I’ve been calendar blocking for month’s and was really into it. Now I started bullet journaling (or trying it out). I love it too but now I am confused how to use both methods at the same time. I also can’t figure out if I should monthly journal or weekly journal. My task lists end up been way too long. Any suggestions?
