Your Inner Age: Journaling Prompts For Gen-X | Messy Minimalist Bullet Journal | Plan With Me

In this video, we’re talking about age and mindset, inspired by the quote, "How old would you be if you didn’t know how old you are?" I’ll share 5 powerful journaling prompts to help you reflect on your age and how it influences your decisions and perspective. Together, we’ll break free from those age-related labels and work on creating an ageless mindset.
After that, we’ll jump into a messy bullet journal and new minimalist bullet journal setup for 2024, focusing on a weekly spread that’s perfect for planning and intention-setting. Whether you’re looking for bullet journal inspiration, weekly spread ideas, or a minimalist weekly spread for your bullet journaling routine, this video has you covered. I’ll show you how I approach my messy weekly spread and how to keep things real while planning for the week ahead-great for bullet journal ideas for beginners or anyone wanting a fresh start.
Hey fren, I’m Alecia Lott, and I’m all about messy and minimalist bullet journaling that works in real life. If you're Gen-X and juggling life, work, and self-care, this bullet journal with me video is for you. Life isn’t perfect, and neither are our journals, but that’s what makes it fun!

WHO AM I?
I’m Alecia Lott, a Blerd with ADHD living in Cincinnati, Ohio. I make videos that explore how to use bullet journaling (journaling / planning in a dotted notebook) to encourage and document growth and achievement, along with "regular" journaling to examine emotions and aspirations.
Uh, why are you still reading this?? Go write in your journal.

[@scarymary3144]

WHAT?! I thought you were quite a bit younger! Your appearance is young, and your demeanor is so youthful. I never would have guessed you were Gen x like me!

[@AleciaLott]

Aw 🌷💐 well thank you Mary!! Yeah I have many moments where I'm like "uhh I would never do that, I'm too old for that sh*t" but inside I'm about 20 years old. Ok what is your mental age?

[@legsoffaith]

What?!?!? Im Gen X and I thought for sure you were in your late 20’s!!!! No joke! Ok, it’s official … you need to do a skincare video!!!😂Omg I love your channel. New sub (and fellow Gen X’er) and I’m SO glad I found your channel! I love the entire concept of your videos and yes I too love the reflections prior to the bullet journaling. Don’t change any of it!😊🙏🏻✨

[@smbharley]

Great video! Just idea for the pages that you want to flip back to you could get tabs and write the month on the tab so you can see when you write it! Also couple videos ago you was talking about the key that the bullet method uses just a idea you could make the key on paper and then make a pocket in journal and when you want to use the key you can just pull it out of the pocket just some ideas! Have an awesome week!!! Love the videos!

[@AleciaLott]

Gurl thank you!! I'm loving the idea of tabs, it would be nice to have something a bit more permanent than just a binder clip or whatever (binder clips are everything to me though lol) You're right about the key, I tend to recoil from anything that's not completely straightforward but it's not that deep either. You are rocking my world right now! Thank you for watching and being there fren 😍

[@k.a.s.jensen9109]

This video and your questions are uncannily relevant for me - I'm turning 60 next time but don't feel 'mature' AT ALL.

[@AleciaLott]

Happy (early) birthday!! What if there's no mature? What if it's a sliding scale or something? I do feel more mature than I did 20 years ago but not as mature as other people my age...? Ya know what I mean?

[@RL_Williams]

Cousin❤❤❤ I love your weekly videos. You seem to be happy in Cincinatti! Keep up the good work!

[@AleciaLott]

COUSIN!! Yes it's good to be back home and exploring my old haunts and new ones. Thank you for watching ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@mytubebetty]

I am also not good at referring to past brain dumps. Still debating on using the Bujo guide of future log signifyer if i don't complete item that week. Will ponder, along with you

[@AleciaLott]

Thank you for watching Betty 💜 So much pondering! There are many things I like about the "traditional" bujo because it's so much "cleaner" than what I do, but when I actually go to make a spread there's a mental block there. We'll keep playing around, something will click!

[@jordanl9607]

We gotta get you to 2k subscribers (and beyond) - you're so funny and real!

[@AleciaLott]

We are putting that out into the UNIVERSE fren!!!! 💜💜💜💜🤗 Thank you so much for watching. And I hope you're having a beautiful week!

[@Dailyreads309]

Can you make video about that board which is behind you.

[@AleciaLott]

YES I can! And I should!! It's my big wall calendar for my 500-words-a-day writing regimen. Soon I'll have a big blank dry-erase board too, because I need to get away from sticky notes. That's coming soon, but in the meantime thank you for watching and I hope you're having a good week 💗💗☺

[@polyglotmona]

Happy birthday Alicia ❤good prompts as always! I feel like in my 30s VP sometimes too, not when I get up and go to work though 🥺 but on free days I feel good and I still love to start something new. I will go bouldering with my elder son tomorrow for the first time in my life. I hope I won’t look like 47 nor feel like that. Have a great week 🍀

[@AleciaLott]

Thank you so much Mona 🤗 It was a great week, I hope yours was as well!! How was bouldering?? You have an adventurous spirit that probably took you a long way. Well now I hope you have a fabulous week ahead!

[@polyglotmona]

@@AleciaLott I’m glad you had a good week 🌷 Bouldering was GREAT fun 🤩 I’m so happy Lukas enjoyed it and we will go bouldering every week after my vacation. I’m overwhelmed that I found something I can do together with him as we had never found much in common.

[@lilyx77]

Happy birthday!!!! (it's bad luck in my culture to wish it in advance) I loooove the question of what age would I be! You seem quite younger than you are (seriously, I'm shocked!) and I do feel younger than I am. I think it's because we have this thing in common of just singing stuff, it keeps us younger in the head :P

[@AleciaLott]

Hey Lily! You are so sweet, I thank you for the birthday wish. It was a lovely day!! 💗💜✨ WE HAVE TO KEEP SINGING LADY!!! I get so shy when I do it lol. But I think you're right, music and dancing keep people young. Do you have one song in your head (in a continuous loop) or do you sing whatever? I hope you're having a fabulous week fren!

[@lilyx77]

@@AleciaLott It depends, sometimes it's a song stuck, but mostly I just sing whatever ant it makes my friends go crazy haha! I used to get shy too but eh, that's just our personality jumping out

[@stephaniescribed]

Always love your attitude and singing 🎵! How may I get a calendar stamp like the one you use on your weekly spreads? Thank you in advance!

[@AleciaLott]

🎵TURN AROUND BRIGHT EYES🎵 EVERY NOW AND THEN I FALL APART 🎵TURN AROUND BRIGHT EYES🎵 ONCE UPON A TIME I WAS FALLING IN LOVE NOW I'M ONLY FALLING APART THERE'S NOTHING I CAN DO TOTAL ECLIPSE OF THE HEARTTTTTTTTTTTTT *cough* Anyway, the calendar stamp is here ok bye I'm embarrassed bit.ly/3zgqV5j

[@stephaniescribed]

One of my fav songs. Now I’m really showing my age! Thank you 🙏🏾

[@wademcginnis9361]

You have nice hands

[@AleciaLott]

Thank you!!

[@coco_blade]

[@AleciaLott]

I am so happy!! (Sometimes lol) But it was a good birthday and I'm feeling grateful ❤❤❤❤❤❤
