This is a very clear and concise explanation of using a bullet journal. I've been told I'm too old to start organizing and managing time and money. My usual response is, "I'm still standing." Thank you for the encouragement.

[@Merima28]

To old to start organising...never heard anything dumber...

[@DestroyYourSkills]

I'm curious to know what age you are now... and who the heck is telling you you're too old?! Sounds like a relationship that might need to be 'reviewed'... 😬😅 In any case, don't let the naysayers dictate your life!

[@FutileGrief]

What kind of person told you that?!?!! Who says "oh I guess the many decades of life you have left are just going to have to suck". WHO SAYS THAT. All of life is about bettering ourselves. Imagine having to live half a century exactly how you were in your teens or twenties. That's absurd. The point of it all is about change and evolution. We're never "done", and we never ever learn everything there is to learn.

My daughter says the same thing. My dad use to say "Any day above ground is a good day" I'm older too. It's NEVER to late to try to improve.

[@Eilyn134]

Tip 1 - Take a mental inventory. Write down all the tasks to avoid decision fatigue you'll gain distance from the pile of choices. Stepping back makes it easier to evaluate what's important and what to prioritize. Tip 2 - Time blocking. Give tasks a start and end time. This adds structure and urgency. Tip 3 - Morning reflection. Spend a few minutes to go over the task list for the day to kickstart your day. Imagine what it looks like to finish each of the tasks. Tip 4 - Evening reflection. Go over your task list, consider how it went. Set your focus right and clarify what is important to you. Plan accordingly. Helps you feel like the day is "complete". Tip 5 - Celebrate the completion of each task. Trains you to identify positive moments. Last tip - Make sure your system works. It should not be over-complicated or hindering you in doing your tasks.

Thanks bro for this ❤

[@vavu1503]

Instead of time blocking(it normally doesn't work for me) what I usually do is whenever I write a task i write the time taken to complete in minutes. In my case it motivates me to complete the task. For example mopping one room 5 minutes. This will ensure i am still doing that

[@Kristeva1410]

Thank you very much! It's a great idea and it'll surely motivate me.

[@chrisdao.9851]

Thanks for the idea ❤

[@harrisofficer]

Time blocking should be known as the time that you can do your specific task as smooth as you can. Its not just set limit time for this. Hope everyone will take it easy.

[@KRITIKAGARG-bg7kh]

Notes: 1. Build mental inventory: Write down everything you want to accomplish in the coming week on Friday. 2. Mark them by importance (vital) to sort out the top priority tasks 3. Block the time for each task. This adds structure and urgency to the task. 4. Reflect on the tasks scheduled for the day every morning for 10-15 mins. (Why am I doing this task?) 5. Use evening reflection to unwind by marking the completed tasks and regrouping the incomplete jobs for the next day. APPRECIATE YOUR PROGRESS! 6. Celebrate by rewarding yourself for each successful task (e.g., dance, high-five)

[@asaudilover5939]

Sent this to my children and grandchildren. They are all working either in their careers or going to school. This is so helpful. I hope they use it to improve their productivity. I’m retired but the need to be productive is really important so I too, may utilize this technique to increase the things I need to do and journal my daily thoughts and activities.

[@marybaker8061]

I'm reading the book now for the first time though I did Bullet Journaling on and off several years. I just read his suggestion on allowing extra time for task and celebrating if those take less time than planned as well. I'm also imply the ease of the "5 4 3 2 1" goal setting suggestion as I struggle with setting goals sometimes on a time line. Jot down a list of want to do then place them in categories: 5 years, 4 months, 3 weeks, 2 days, and 1 hour. You may also just write those categories then place goals under each. 😊 thanks for making this!!

I'm already using notion to build my weekly task list, mostly because I like to have those things on digital to better organize and edit later, But it does not work properly if I don't write on paper before starting them. Feels so good to strikeout the task after competition. So I think I already have done 1.Mental Inventory, 3.Morning Reflection and 5.Celebrate. I'm trying to implement time blocking, but didn't knew about Evening Reflection. Thanks for sharing that, is good to know I'm going to the right direction. Life feels so good when things are organized.

[@theinvestingcollegeinvesti6132]

How to plan your week more effectively (art of improvement) 1. take a mental inventory Write down everything you wanna do to avoid decision fatigue( dk how to spend your time) then consider the priority of those tasks 2. time blocking set the time limit for your tasks, eg. 1 hour for essay set deadline for urself 3. morning reflection 5-15 mins, review what u wanna do, read your to do list think about why u wanna do those tasks imagine u have finished those tasks, giv some motivaiton 4. evening reflection help unwind your mind consider tasks u have completed, consider why u have finished those tasks, whats the priority mark the end of the day and appreciate yourself 5. celebrate

[@caseofkc2170]

I just need to share a breakthrough at the "imagine the burst you get when completing that task" like that sounds so simple but so helpful~ we get so stressed trying to just get the task started that we neglect the fulfillment from actually getting it done~

[@zariyahcampos3565]

I always did this as a student, it works. Also, reflect about your mistakes on how to improve it. 😊

[@Dave-ld1ps]

Evening reflections can be a killer for me. When I'm checking which tasks I haven't managed to complete, then my guilt complex comes into play and tells me how much of a loser I am. This demotivates me and leads to more depression which spirals into more procrastination

[@dammitbobby283]

Instead of dwelling on incomplete tasks, focus on positive aspects and learn from the day. Avoid self-blame and shift towards self-compassion. Set realistic goals, prioritize tasks, and establish a routine.

[@veraramlal]

Maybe you are setting too many goals for yourself or too many tasks per day. This is easy to happen to many of us given the increasing demands not only at workplaces but also just 21st century living.

Nobody is going to rush in and change your life for you. You might get help if you find someone supportive, but if you don't hold yourself accountable they might not stick around. You have to be a source of progression too!! We're in the mindset of healing now. So lets end the doom scrolling, take some notes, and get back on track. If it doesn't give you a sense of accomplishment at night and brings peace to your life. You go to bed and try again tomorrow. We need to get to that point where you are happy living your life or youll run out of time with the illusion of happiness. Aka what your screen provides. Don't let that be you!
