How to Bullet Plan: Everything You Need to Know About Journaling with Bullet Points
F**U
A comprehensive easy to read book on Bullet Journaling
I bought copies for grandchildren and one for myself. The youngest is 11 yo and felt that the book would be too substantial, so I bought a different book written for boys of his age.This book does give lots of ideas how to creatively bullet journal, and sone of the examples look like works of art.I'm not sure that I shall feel motivated to draw and colour my own journal simply because of the time required. But the book does provide all the information required for a layout of a good practical 'life organiser'.Having skimmed the book I concluded that I need to supplement it with information best suited to men, so I printed 4 x QR codes of links to YouTube videos that were specifically suited to men, including Ryder Caroll who first introduced the world to Bullet Journalling.This book is definitely a must have book for anyone 15yo and above. However, age doesn't define it's usefulness. People who love books and enjoy reading will appreciate this one.When I bought this book as Christmas gifts I knew that some of my grandchildren might not start bullet journaling at this time, but I'm hopeful that with maturity they will become more reflectful and will turn to this book to help them discover and map their life aspirations and goals.I believe it's important to give ourselves and others the opportunities and tools to discover and develop personal potential.I will therefore always give books to everyone and anyone that will open their minds, and empower them to achieve their personal potential.At 74 I am aware of the brevity of life and of the importance of the productive use of my time. This book inspires, motivates, and provides a structure for personal reflection, goal setting, and bringing order to daily life.Journaling is not keeping a 'diary', where you feel guilty for many blank pages where no entries were made. A Bullet Journal is so much more, and easier to maintain as a daily habit, and this book explains clearly the benefits of Bullet Journaling and how to go about it.

For me the best how to's book for newbies wanting to begin bullet journallingl
Amazing fabulous book, comical and serious. The author explains the reasoning behind all the spreads/sections, shows several ways of designing your spreads and the pros & cons of these.My only reason for the 4 rather than 5 🌟 review, is because of my only bug bear with the book. Which is ... the book fabulously covers every kind of spread, and shows pictures & points for these. BUT nowhere does it tell you whether you put the trackers, or for example books to read or vacation plans in the front between your monthly/weekly/daily spreads. Or start at the back with these.I'm sure this probably isn't a massive thing. But as a newbie first timer to dot journalling, I had no clue. I felt it would be annoying to have it part way through and then find later on that ends up being in the middle of a week (when you get to that page), then I thought it might be equally annoying to have a random list at the end of a month spread before the first weeks spread ........ yes I'm just that fussy unfortunately.So I'm planning to start spreads at the back for anything that's isn't my future spread (year) monthly spread & weekly spread.But that aside the detail and different ideas for the same spread and the reasoning to the spreads are fabulous!!

Down to earth
I really loved this book! It’s really well written, no non sense, with super easy to follow and inspiring ideas for bullet journaling. The Author writes in a very friendly, agile and unpretentious way, which made me devour the book in just few hours in one night. I could start applying the suggested ways of bullet journaling right away. I must confess that I had a go to other books, tools, formats of bullet journaling and I just found it disappointing and disenchanting, but thanks to this practical and great book I’ve given it another try, makes sense and best of all, it’s really helping me to gain control of my life...which is the ultimate goal of a bullet journal: a tool for self improvement in many areas of our lives.

Excellent book. Very happy
Excellent book. Straightforward and packed with info to get me started as a bujo newby. I've gone on to do more artsy stuff in my journal but started with more minimalist stuff from this book until I got more confident. The examples are still ase useful I just customise to what I like which is the point of bullet journalling. Arrived quickly too

Ok
A sound little book to get you started in bullet journals . There wasn't much in here I hadn't seen on you tube and I was disappointed there weren't a few more ideas for layouts hence only 3 stars

Amazing Product
Is an amazing product, is really helpful when you need practical and cute ideas for the things you want to put in your bullet journal but don't know exactly how to do it, a really good book and a nice fun author. It also arrived a week before than the date shown in my tracking in a cute cardboard envelope and it came in perfect conditions. Overall an amazing product and experience.

Major lesson
One of the major things that came to light for me from this book, was recording how much sleep or not as it turned out I was getting. I did the exercise not thinking much of it to be honest. But, it was a real revelation when I looked over past months & saw in colour😁that I wasn't getting enough sleep. Thank you
