In case you missed how I prepped or why I'm doing this - check out my first week and my prep week here:
A Month Of Bullet Journaling: The Prep
A Month Of Bullet Journaling: Week One
A Month Of Bullet Journaling: Week Two
A Month Of Bullet Journaling: Week Three
Anyways.
This week I wanted to take all the skills I learned (hopefully) over the past three weeks for the best week yet. As my last week, I thought it should be something that focuses on the organization more than anything... but I failed really bad at it.
LIKES
- Having the open concept made it really easy for me to move things from day to day.
- The two pages was, again, really nice to have because it gave me lots of room to work.
- I did use this pretty often this week. I looked back at things I had written in after I initially drew out this week. I also used it to check my work schedule because I'm on the hot mess express and almost missed work twice.
DISLIKES
- I didn't like this layout at all. I thought I was going to - but I hated it.
- There wasn't too much structure and although it gave me more places to write, I actually didn't want to use it because of the design.
Overall Review:
I love, love, love the idea of a bullet journal, but I don't think I'm the person for it. If I took all four weeks and smushed it into one thing I think I would be really happy... but I don't think that's possible. (If you can do that, please find me and tell me. I need that.)
Every week I tried harder and harder to put myself into this, but every week I got way more into designing the next week before I had a formal opinion on what I liked and didn't like from the previous week. I think that might be what made it hardest for me to focus on what worked and what didn't when coming up from the next week.
I think I'll be sticking to my pocket planner, but I would be interested in trying this again sometime!
