Many people get stuck into thinking their daily use bullet journal is actually their art book. They often get so focused on it looking pretty and perfect that they lose the whole point of using a bullet journal - to capture your tasks, make sure they get completed or re-assigned, to capture your mood, and that’s about it.

[@lillithdv8]

Perfection while bujoing had been my downfall many times. But last October I decide frack complex overly precious design, intricate embellishments and just do it. I found you and your no frill approach and it’s working! Last month my water bottle leaked in my bag, soaked half my journal. Past me would have rage quit at warping my shrine to perfection. Not this time, I felt sad wrote about it. Dried my journal and I’m still using it, warts and all. Now I’m enjoying the clarity it’s bringing me, the comfort of reflection and milestones I’ve accomplished in the last months.

[@SimieIriarte]

Proud of you! ✨

[@dvf4550]

This is such a good comment I stopped the video 27 seconds in to read it all first. Good for you! Now I'll watch the video, lol.

[@SigogglinJack]

My BuJo looks like it fell out of an ugly tree and hit every limb on the way down. And that’s okay. Your videos are an inspiration! You have the Best Bullet Journal channel on KZbin. Great journal setup!

[@janettepiechota4921]

I think Bujo should sponsor you, for capturing the essence of the method and addressing universal issues like perfectionism. Thank you for another insightful video. Best , Janette

[@emilywyant9453]

She said “how the f&$k am I a doctor?” 😂 Promise you’ll never stop making these videos - pragmatic and hilarious journaling videos is a tricky combo but you’re nailing it!

[@nattiesgarden]

I’m way too much of a perfectionist, so I bujo in a discbound notebook where I can add, remove, or move pages to my heart’s content. And it’s a very content space, indeed. Thank you for your videos, they’re a huge inspiration to me!

[@nentendomofo]

I'm starting my first bujo this year and it's honestly thanks to your videos. You filled the niche I needed - minimalist, realistic, and creative. I was really lusting after some expensive Japanese planners but you have inspired me to try bullet journaling first.

[@SimieIriarte]

Happy to help! 🫡

[@thegoatgirlcr]

I love how you turn the 'perfectionism' part into a horror movie😂 I love your sense of humor. Thanks for reminding all of us to KEEP IT SIMPLE❤🙏🔥

[@dianalesaux]

‘To do hoarder’ I feel that in my soul 😢

[@chrisbianculli3465]

@01:59 🤣🤣🤣🤣What is this little hand!? I love it!😂

[@adequateunboxing]

Some of us just have smaller hands

[@chrisbianculli3465]

@02:10 🤣💀

[@Complexity-in-the-Grey]

Your humour is so funny. I absolutely love your little hands. So cool. Keep up your amazing efforts, I’m loving your work xx

[@alonememe]

7:02 You are really enjoying these little hands 😄

[@katemarlor1816]

Thanks for the upload. Slight brain dump. I had been feeling like life was getting out of control and wanted to reset. Not a New Years thing, just coincidence. Then, I came across your channel and bam! Bullet Journaling. I've doing it off and on for 7+ years. When I feel I've got control, I stop. But, like with many of us, also get discouraged by the volume you *can* do with bujo. Your channel is perfect! I wanted the most straightforward, no fluff method to keep it simple. Your vid on values became bedrock for me. Clean, simple, objectives and that's exactly what I am looking for. One goal is to get away from pop culture noise and emotion baiting distractions. I unsubs from a bunch of YT channels, but sub to yours right away. Your content is some the best on the platform. Best advice, best topics, and best editing. Can't wait for 2024!

[@SimieIriarte]

you're a gem!

[@nerd26373]

Your bullet journal looks organized and practical. We hope to see more content like this.

[@mamajudesays6912]

Your videos are a breath of fresh air in the bullet journal content world

[@Tharaha1]

Agreed!

[@Ayshafr]

This is the first video I've seen of yours and I'm instantly in love. Absolutely love your sense of humor and approach. My bullet journal is hardly a bullet journal and more of just a regular planner with extra space for notes except I make it myself. It's worked for me, and I don't usually embellish it beyond choosing a colored pen to write with each month. I fell off of using it last year and the year before, but I've missed having a journal, and it's been fun to flip through my old ones and see what I was doing in the past.

[@jennifersmith4295]

Thank you for a practical bullet journal set up! I also love your comical moments where you act out what A LOT of us are feeling but afraid to verbalize it!❤️

[@piccolofan24]

I was just thinking “wonder if Simie gonna upload for New Years?” And lo and behold! New video. ❤

[@scoogsy]

No frills defo for the win!

[@aaronrobison8416]

I can tell you put a lot of effort into the video. A very thoughtful and creative way to help us make things more simple. I'm not an artist like some of the people on youtube. And I got tired of trying to make everything perfect but I need to experiment more. So thank you for helping us out.

[@RJAMiniatures]

This was incredibly relatable. Great video! Thank you!

[@yidayin]

Happy new year！sorry for this super belated message that I should have left one year ago. I have been bullet journaling for 5 years but arrived at the pointed that I wanted to give up, because I I spent too much time trying to make it pretty instead having it serve me as a tool. Until I saw your simplistic journal set up video last new year, followed your method, which totally changed my relationship with my journal. Last year has been my best year since I started Bujo, I finished 2 journals, and achieved a lot of personal growth thanks to it. A very heartfelt thank ❤🎉you

[@SimieIriarte]

wowowowowow this is awesome

[@fishsticks-McGee]

The little hands had my attention 👐

[@alfredcarmona]

You got it! Perfection is the enemy of any goal or habit that we need to develop. It doesn't matter what we do read , learn or try the empty space or the "could be better" will be there. Thank you for this video 🙏

[@CarrieB11]

Omg. You are hilarious and I'm staying here forever.

[@SimieIriarte]

Welcome to the clurrrb 👁️👄👁️

[@VanFanelLinux]

This is the real BuJo

[@justjaytomboy]

So after binging your videos, I took the plunge and created my first BuJo! I truly love your simplistic style and it gave me the motivation and inspiration to get one going. Thank you so much!

[@Dejidachi]

Love your editing and humor 😃. Def taking some inspiration for my own journal this year!

[@KazumiShiunsai]

thanks to you i finally feel the courage to make my own. Grabbed one of old empty notebooks lying around, it doesn't have a hard cover, but i'll take it as my first bujo experiment, so after it's filled, i'll go and buy something more pretty.

[@ai81]

This is the bujo video every noob needs to watch first! Just saying… 😉😃

[@DvsDebt]

Yes to starting a finance journal! 😍 I love your videos and would love to watch you tackle finance stuff!

[@SimieIriarte]

I would love to watch me tackle finance stuff too! takin control 😎

[@Andrew-dg7qm]

The mind is clever. I recommend accepting and integrating perfectionism rather than beating it - you’re only beating yourself (up)

[@feranmiolorundare7351]

thank you so much, i think i finally found my bujo style, i am always overwhelmed by all the art and colour in most videos. this is calming

[@AndFound]

Happy New Year! Thank you for another smart and helpful and funny video! Your work is so creative and also chill and hilarious at the same time. I’m really glad I found your channel.

[@DxrkestMatter]

Such gorgeous filmmaking!

[@thedreadednyondo]

Loved this. I’ve also ridden the perfectionism hell-ride. Once I discovered correction tape i was able to just make those mistakes and keep on going.

[@punkw4449]

I love this video. It really made me laugh and put a smile on my face. Thank you

[@brandymcintosh6687]

New subscriber... I just wanted to let you know that the format/ content of your videos is brilliant. You can tell the work that went into them, and it's so... WATCHABLE. Congrats on having one of the best bujo channels I've ever come across, definitely something you should be proud of!! 🤩⭐️

[@g.guevarra]

Been looking for a great tutorial and this was so chill so I'm going with this. Thank you!

[@karakask5488]

This is the best bujo video ever. You are a genius.

[@monicali]

You ate my go to youtuber whenever i need some inspiration for journaling. I just realised i have subscribe to you channel until a few days ago. Everytime I wanted to find you i just searched for minimalistic bujo 😅 And as a bonusbi find your videos absolutely hilarious 😂

[@lvwhiterabbit]

I just discovered your channel and I abolutely love your tone and humor. you make it so fun. Also I had to go order a pile of your dope stickers

[@Aviplotbunny]

Was just thinking about looking forward to your next video and here it is! I always enjoy seeing how people set up. Your videos are super inspiring to watch, so looking forward to whatever you put out this year!

[@SimieIriarte]

tada!

[@notaspectator]

First of, happy new year Simie, you've been inspirational, still on it since may last year

[@ElaishaLosariaPomida]

Im so happy I found you! 😭❤️ Sending you so much love and warmth🥺❤️

[@BlushnBlue]

Love your Bujo as always. Big fan.

[@vietspringroll]

every video just gets better and better! congratulations on being gifted the bujo, so deserved

[@huaiscrblol5077]

Not quite sure how I ended up here because i've never touched a bullet journal in my life, but I stayed for the humour and the good vibes! Looking forward to your next video ^_^

[@HelloNatta]

I love your video. It sums up our struggle to have to make pretty bullet journal every month 🥹

[@gerdablord3400]

Ohh great, I love it! Please more!

[@melodieblais7844]

The little hands 🤣

[@Yessica13]

Interesting! Perfectionism is the reason i use a planner instead of a blank notebook. I like a lot of aspects of bujo but i cant draw straight lines

[@MindFoodHQ]

Great video - very organised and practical indeed.

[@CH-sk7jr]

Iconic (and hilarious) as usual. Keep up the great work!!

[@carlosrodrigues0106]

Loved your video...greetings from Brazil!

[@getlizziewithit]

This was the best end to a KZbin video, ever.

[@uma4802]

Simie You really just created a journal triller :) as an intro. Keep up the great video editing

[@Tharaha1]

Love this! Would love to hear more about your period tracker!

[@connorsings92]

Delightful video! Thanks. Subscribed.

[@TheWishDragon]

That urgency set up might actually help my ADHD the most difficult issue is prioritisng.

[@adequateunboxing]

This is my favorite video so far.

[@JacquelineMayuga]

yearly/monthly/daily set up is so ace, love how simple it is. i stole the whole thing (excep monthly reflection box and habit tracking set up) lol.

[@Dortiz8925]

Loved the video ... hilarious as always and the little hands 😂😂

[@ishanmahajan7650]

This is amazing stuff.

[@Marci2110]

I'm so happy I found your channel. Peak editing! And so down to earth. And I just love the minimalism. First time seriously trying BuJo! How are the BuJo/Leuchtturm Pens? I really like the look of them.

[@SimieIriarte]

They're awesome! 🌈

[@didu2689]

On freaking time I swear 🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@Seen_not_heard]

2:18 The hand, lmao.

[@JazminJuarezAngryChibi2019]

Hmm I really been struggling to keep up with my 2024 goals and I really do like your system of your brain dump! I plan to implementing it to my May setup and I shall see if my productivity improves!

[@Seen_not_heard]

1:00 first time here and I'm already loving how this video begins.

[@floroliveto8531]

There’s something about your videos that makes me want to be your friend ❤️

[@SimieIriarte]

🤠

[@suzee_]

Great video again . Love the simple way. Before the Internet I used a simple pocket calendar and wall calendar for years (I just told my age lol) and didn't have the stress or anxiety about planning i do today . I've moved away from the way others plan and went back to my old ways. It's great .. and btw ,you're a doctor ?? Lol jk I knew that ..😊

[@psychedianic]

We're probably in the same generation. ❤

[@SimieIriarte]

👩🏾‍⚕️ hehe

[@astro-dodo8013]

I'm starting my first ever journal this year and one thing I really want to avoid is letting my perfectionism ruin my experience. Your videos have been super helpful in giving me a starting point!

[@peaceofmind6141]

This is a really good video.. I need to retake my life back..320lbs and the goal is 225lb by 2025 and I know it can be done😊

[@user-hr1wf7md6i]

please make a video about reflection in journaling (maybe in a month/ half a year or a whole year)

[@iNSPIREZAMBIAMAGAZINE]

Why do I love those hands so much??🤣

[@katethegratedcheese]

Okay but the fact that I knew EXACTLY which video that was in the beginning, even with the voice filter ☠️

[@SimieIriarte]

Ouuf

[@oriannegallego6093]

Just bought the exact same journal today (the coincidence is a bit scary), it was overwhelming to know if I wanted to do it or not, cause I know I won't met my expectations in terms of "aesthetic"/if my lines are going to be straight or not. But I said fuck it, you are trying to be more healthy and follow up/track your days, I'll just info dump this journal out Feels nice to see a video like that for once on youtube :') giving me more hope that I'll be fine with it and still open this damn journal regularly ! ty

[@SimieIriarte]

hell ya! That's what i'm talkin bouttttt 💪🏾

[@jamestombleson469]

This video really spoke to me. Thank you. I will definitely check out more of them. I see several comments about the little hands; where did you get them?

[@SimieIriarte]

Just on the amazon 👐🏾

[@squeezlepop]

Not me watching this before I plan to film my first KZbin video and going through the same "it won't even be half this good" cycle you're describing about journals 😭 I know I know. I need to start somewhere! I'm just going to power through

[@squeezlepop]

Also now I need to go check my Calatheas for spider mites again 💀

[@SimieIriarte]

I worrrrrrst

[@natl4517]

I never thought of the brain dump as a monthly thing. I kept trying it as, well, to do hoarding over my entire future lifetime. Now it makes sense why I tended to ignore the brain dump, because I have enough stuff to last past my lifetime until the next major extinction event. I am going to move mine and try for monthly brain dumps. Also, the little hands - for brief moment at the flip through I thought you upsized the journal (dang, she went for the ginormous one). And the “how the f&$k am I a doctor?” Laughing - I hear that in the hospital all the time! 🙂

[@passiveincomewithstaciek]

Hilarious, again. Love your videos!!!

[@Gabeking88]

… . . . . . . . Valid, bravo

[@vivienecost]

My bujo 2024 still no ready to use. GuEsS wHyYYY? Anyway, good to see you, thanks for sharing!

[@carol.fsilva27]

YOU ARE PERFECT!! 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡 kisses from Brazil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@tempest510]

Will you offer the Last Braincell sticker again? It should go on the cover of every notebook I use.

[@realeStacy]

First of all, I put your quote about ‘being ok with screwing up and or moving on’ in my journal. ❤ Secondly, you are so hilarious. Were those doll hands flipping pages? 😂

[@SimieIriarte]

They’re finger hands 😂

[@realeStacy]

perfection@@SimieIriarte

[@cb5284]

I got the exact same journal in the exact same color this year.

[@SimieIriarte]

Wahoo!

[@trivonpunto5560]

Hi! Awesome video! I would like to create a list/collections, i.e books to read, movies to watch, wishlist, places to to visit, for future reference. Would you have any tips pleeease ? ty!

[@SimieIriarte]

Maybe start with a list you’re already working on! Like if you’re currently reading a book or have read a few, make a list for that. That’s how all my lists end up starting out, now that I think about it 🤔

[@psychedianic]

Not a perfectionist but I'm commenting and liking to support those who are or want to be. Great video, friend!

[@user-rb9ln4en5x]

What pens are those?

[@elip4854]

SOLD!!!

[@Freak80MC]

It's funny you start off talking about perfection when currently I have an index card system and I'm *constantly* tweaking stuff when new ideas come to me lol But I'm looking up bullet journal stuff now because having to sort through multiple cards of info a day is starting to get a bit overwhelming lol

[@SimieIriarte]

i like that you have a system already tho!

[@saseng]

I wanna do work journal but i cant do it properly. I have so many tasks and its overwhelming me

[@ericoliver6823]

Because of you I now put stickers in my journal. Most days I now get a daily dose of fat shibas shaped like desserts stuck to my monthly spread

[@janeo14]

hahha need to do / wanna do / should do do ?/ whatever to do :))

[@betterburnout]

Hello ✨ Thx for the nice setup. Does it mean that every month you do the migration from a Brain-Dump to another ?

[@SimieIriarte]

Yup!

[@betterburnout]

Copy that @@SimieIriarte ! ✨

[@Alwaysbmoving]

I have a couple beautiful journal books that I am too afraid to use. Nothing I put in there will be worthy enough XP

[@andyojones]

Where is the affiliate link for those cute little hand paperweights that hold a page open for you while you are photographing your spreads? I want two of those. Also, great content.
