I did google "bullet journaling" and found this website. It looks as if you can use it as a reminder, to-do list, or incorporate more details. Here is the link, https://www.oprahmag.com/life/work-money/a32155559/how-to-start-a-bullet-journal/

I think I will give it a try and use it for a to-do list, for "gratitude bullets" and also "personal goal bullets". What do you think? Anyone else want to try it?

I’m laughing, I guess I’ve been bullet journaling for years, and did not even know it.
I buy my bullet journal at staples end of every year.
Been doing this I guess for over 20 plus years.
Quicker and easier then the old imitation Leather dairy with the tiny keys.
Thanks for the website, it was an article in Oprah magazine.

@hopeful33250 Teresa, that was a good beginner's article! I think I will give it a try, certainly. But certainly will not give up my calendar book that stays in my purse. It will be fun to compare notes with anyone else who may join in trying this. I wonder if the comment about numbering the pages relates to putting dates ahead of time, plus a weekly rundown?

@hopeful33250 Teresa, I printed out the article, watched the videos. Got very enthused and went to look up a type of journal to use. And was able to tell myself that I don't need another blank journal, I have half a dozen already, pick one of those. Or simply start by continuing on in the one currently in use. This being Sunday, it's a good day to start, right? And, the first of the month is coming along, too.

It will be good to compare notes with others, on how this works for them, how they choose their format, since it is all so personal, and what they think of the process!

Have you given it a try yet, @hopeful33250? I have 3 separate journals going: a regular, write anything whenever one, which I've done for decades; a second, gratitude journal for jotting down 3 each early morning and before bed and the third, the 3 "to do tasks" for tomorrow.

What @elderwoman and @criss shared above holds very true for me as well. Journaling helps me let go of troubling feelings or upsetting events and also helps to clarify my thinking.
