a busy mom
and her bullet journal
One of the things that kept giving me trouble in the last couple of months was the daily habit tracker. With everything that is going at home lately, I keep on forgetting to use it. And this was something that was helping me stay on top of the things that are important to me, for a better quality of life. I loved the weekly style I used to have and that one seemed to have been more effective. But I needed to simplify. It was taking me too much time to set the layout up. And even with my monthly version in opposite to weekly/daily, I'm still spending too much time and tracking basically twice. I need to turn to something more minimalist... now.

I posted on November 1 about the changes I was making for this month due to the fact that I was running out of spreads and I didn't want to start a new notebook for just a couple of spreads. I wanted to share how things were going considering that half of November is already gone. Things That Are Working So Far
A new month is here and this prompted me to make changes to my monthly setup. I always use a calendar view for my monthly log. For the longest time I tried to use the original monthly log, to not avail. I still use that one for my work bullet journal. However, because I'm a very visual person, I struggle a lot with that format. Therefore, back in May, I started to use an actual calendar view.
This month, I decided to tweak it a little bit. I made the calendar smaller, which gave me more rows at the bottom of the spread, as well as more space to the right margin of the right page. I can now use this extra space at the bottom for my habit tracker. Even though I said in my last post that I was not going to keep a habit tracker anymore, I decided to give it one more chance and I reduced the number of habits to the ones that made most sense to me and my current living situation. |
