So: bullet journals?

[balsamandash]

Heeeey, people who use this thing that is supposed to be super useful. I would like to also use the useful thing. Talk to me about how you use the thing?

...Words are hard. But yeah. Have looked at the thing, think it may be of use, am going to try starting one soon, would appreciate any advice/tips/whatever from people who do the thing, if any of you do.


In other news: Heading to family's for the night, because 1. brother has an acting class showcase, and 2. one of grandmother's oldest friends died, and we're going to go try and cheer her up a little/give her company. Expect more to-do-lists when I get back, because that... actually worked out really well, so I might try doing that for a little bit. Especially as sometime this week I will be starting up/planning out work stuff with my mom, so my TDL will grow massively, most likely, at least until I get everything set up for that.

Tip on the wrong topic (feel free to back away slowly and/or tell me to mind my beeswax):

Specific advice: Make TDLs that are manageable and specific to time frame, topic, or both. You can always write another one. Keep them to what you can actually do without feeling overwhelmed, and you'll feel accomplished when you check them off.

General principle: Maximize the *efficiency* of use of the tool or repeat what was effective in the past, rather than trying to maximize the stuff the tool is applied to, if you want to keep getting good results with it.

Any and all organization tips are very much appreciated at any time, for the record. Whether or not I've said anything about it lately, it's always an issue I'm looking for help with.


I will keep this in mind! Goodness knows I need to find some way to make TDLs work for me continually, instead of sporadically....

Good to know. I'm not feeling very organized myself right now, but I'll get back to you.
