INTRODUCTION
The 365 Bullet Guide isn’t a diary, nor is it a notebook. Rather, it’s a launch pad for an infinitely customizable organization system that will change your life. These pages will help you to put all your planners, to-do lists and journals in one book. The only essential extras are a notebook (see here for advice on what kind to choose) and a pen.
The joy of a bullet book is that it can be as simple or as complicated as you like. Whether you need to monitor multiple projects at work, want to keep tabs on your domestic chores, track your health, improve your mood or need a place to store personal goals and precious memories, or all of the above, a bullet book is an invaluable resource. Here there are enough bulleting steps, activities and ideas for every day of the year, most of which will take you 365 seconds or less. However insignificant such bursts of organizational creativity may seem, the greatest ideas start small.
Dotted throughout the book are Get Creative pages, which will inspire you to embellish your pages with colors, shapes, boxes, borders and doodles, and even teach you some lettering techniques.
There is plenty of space to practice within this book but you might want to have some scrap paper to hand, particularly if you’re a perfectionist. There are tips on how to fix mistakes in the book, but don’t beat yourself up if your pages don’t look as perfect as you’d like. You’ll find your own style.
So let’s begin.
GET STARTED
CHOOSING YOUR JOURNAL
Select your bullet book carefully. It will undergo a lot of use so pick a sturdy one. You’ll be drawing both horizontal and vertical lines so you might want to pick a notebook that has grids or dots on each page. If your to-do lists are very long, then pick a book with lots of pages. If you’re more of a minimalist, then slim is fine. Numbered pages save time but they’re not essential, you can do this yourself.
SET-UP
If your notebook is completely blank, number the pages or be sure to number them as you go along. You can number every other page if you’re pushed for time.
On the first page, add a title (it can just be your name). Alternatively, leave this blank and come back once you’ve had some practice with lettering, borders and doodles.
On the next page, add your heading: INDEX. The Index will act as a contents page for your journal. It will allow you to keep track of the different spreads you add to your book by using their title and page number. As your journal gets longer, you’ll be able to find what you’re looking for at a quick glance. If your notebook is particularly thick, you may want to allocate two pages for the Index. You can leave it blank for
