In his long-awaited first book, Ryder Carroll, the creator of the enormously popular Bullet Journal organisational system, explains how to use his method to: Track the past: using nothing more than a pen and paper, create a clear, comprehensive, and organised record of your thoughts and goals. Order the present: find daily calm by prioritising and minimising your workload and tackling your to-do list in a more mindful and productive way. Design the future: establish and appraise your short-term and long-term goals, plan more complex projects simply and effectively, and live your life with meaning and purpose. Like many of us, Ryder Carroll tried everything to get organised — countless apps, systems, planners, you name it. Nothing really worked. Then he invented his own simple system that required only pen and paper, which he found both effective and calming. He shared his method with a few friends, and before long he had a worldwide viral movement. Hundreds of thousands of Bullet Journal fans now spread the word and read Ryder's blog and newsletter. The system combines elements of a wishlist, a to-do list, and a diary. It makes it easy to get thoughts out of your head (an unreliable witness) and onto paper, to see them clearly and decide what to do about them. It helps you identify what matters, and set goals accordingly. By breaking long-term goals into small actionable steps, users map out an approachable path towards continual improvement, allowing them to stay focused despite the crush of incoming demands. But this is much more than a time management book. It's also a manifesto for what Ryder calls "intentional living:" making sure that your beliefs and actions align. Even if you already use a Bullet Journal, this book gives you new exercises to become more calm and focused, new insights on how to prioritise well, and a new awareness of the power of analogue tools in a digital world. Review: You want to bullet journal? Ignore social media and read this book - If you search "bullet journal" online, you will find millions of journal pages with artistic spreads, month covers, trackers, etc. But these don't represent THE Bullet Journal Method. The Bullet Journal was created by Ryder Carroll to help him order his life and help him manage his ADHD. He spent years refining it until he started to share it with the world. The Bullet Journal Method just uses dots for tasks, circles for events, and hyphens for notes; these lists shouldn't even be full sentences! Through a combination of key logs (future, monthly, daily), the index, collections (only when necessary), and reflections, the Bullet Journal user is able to capture a large amount of data in a small space, and use that data to prioritize, adjust, and focus their lives. This book walks you through the whole process, providing you with a powerful, life-changing tool... as long as you don't get distracted by the Instagram spreads you will find online that often deviate from the core method and are more like a custom planner. Remember: function over beauty. Every November through January, I pull out this book and reread it, complete various exercises, and basically reset. This book is how you truly learn to Bullet Journal. If you are still undecided, check out the Official Bullet Journal YouTube channel (its icon is a black circle with a white lightning bolt) and the playlist I posted as an image (I can't post the link or my comment will be taken down). Just the first 2 videos will give you basics and show you how simple the Bullet Journal Method truly is. I started using the method just by watching those 2 videos; however, I didn't really understand how to leverage its full power until I read this book. Understanding the full method, as well as purpose of each aspect of the method, is what really moves you forward. One of the strengths of the method is how you can adjust your Bullet Journal to meet your unique needs (the inability to do this with pre-made planners like Franklin Covey or Dayrunner is why many of us have given up on planners). Now, what if you are wondering, "But I like those pretty pictures, why can't I use them?" The answer is simple... your Bullet Journal can range anywhere from completely ugly (no art, no color, tons of mistakes and scratchouts, crumpled water-logged pages smeared with grease, etc.) to absolutely stunning; however, the true Bullet Journal Method focuses on function instead of beauty. As long as your focus is on what you want to accomplish with your life, how to get there, and your progress, additional aesthetic flourishes aren't a problem. (confession: my BuJo has color and flourishes that I add AFTER I have recorded my data. Adding pretty flourishes is my reward for completing the functional aspects.) Review: highly recommended for those who prefer action more than motion - This book is incredibly well-written, and the stories and examples shared throughout are truly enlightening. Ryder Carroll not only explains how the Bullet Journal works, but also why it works — helping readers reconnect with their thoughts, priorities, and purpose. I love the simplicity and flexibility of this minimalistic system. As I read, I tried applying the techniques along the way, and I was amazed at how effective they are in organizing my life and clearing my mind. It’s not just about productivity; it’s also about mindfulness and intentional living. I’m deeply grateful to Ryder for sharing this beautiful and life-changing method. After years of trying different note-taking and journaling systems, I finally found one that truly fits me. The Bullet Journal has become my favorite analog way to reduce screen time, stay focused, and live more mindfully every day. ## Features - The Bullet Journal Method is the eagerly anticipated first book by Ryder Carroll, the creator of the immensely popular Bullet Journal - the organisational trend that took the nation by storm! - In the book, Ryder Carroll explains all about how you can best use his method to track your past, order your present and plan your future in a way that suits you and your own personal organisational needs. - Whether you re creative or methodical, Bullet Journaling is a great way for you to create a clear, comprehensive and organised record of all your thoughts and personal goals, prioritise your workload and tackle your to-do list using nothing more than a pen and paper. - The Bullet Journal Method by Ryder Carroll Track your past Order your present Plan your future Approx. dimensions (mm) H 203 W 142 D 28 - Pads & Books ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 9,530 Reviews | ## Images ![The Bullet Journal Method - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/710-w1IreEL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ You want to bullet journal?

Ryder Carroll not only explains how the Bullet Journal works, but also why it works — helping readers reconnect with their thoughts, priorities, and purpose.

Ok, truth be told, she tipped me off to it a year ago when it transformed her life. My work environment was pretty well organized at the time and remains so; thus, I passed on her tip. About one year later, she brought it up in another context, but this time I bit the bait because I have felt the need to get my personal life in better order. Therefore, I bought this book along with one bullet journal to get started. Ryder Carroll’s book gives any reader the tools and inspiration to get started for whatever purpose they need to bullet journal. I’m a writer by nature, but journaling has never played a huge place in my life. At times, I’d write my emotional thoughts down just to get them expressed, but it’s never been a daily discipline. Now, however, I find that many lives depend on mine, whether at work, in my family, or in charitable opportunities. Being organized so that things aren’t dropped has become crucial. Electronic planners don’t work as well outside of work because I want to get away from screens on weekends. Enter bullet journaling. I’ve started to keep a list of big tasks that I want to get done in the next three months and divided them up in achievable chunks. Not only will this give me a running log of my life, something Carroll highlights, but it also allows my mind to become unburdened by repetitive items. Thus, my energy can be freed up to approach new tasks instead of remembering older ones. Carroll explains all such potential benefits in the book. Carroll doesn’t just explain how he personally uses it; rather, he explains how all sorts of people have been using it through seminars he’s led. Thus, the message isn’t just from one person’s brain but from a chorus of people gaining benefit. Befitting today’s world, bullet journaling is highly customizable and personalizable. It also expedites entries so that those journaling don’t have to write expansive prose to register their thoughts. In fact, I found the myriad of shorthand techniques one of the most helpful parts of the book! Almost anyone has some domain in their life that they can improve. Most of the time, no one book, class, or expert can fill in all the gaps for a given task. Life is complicated and requires a customized approach from each individual. Bullet journaling offers a method to begin to prevail over complex problems. In our age of too much information, overcoming complexity is something we all need. I certainly do. That’s why I’ve started to record my diverse but rich life in my own journal. As an postscript, the official bullet journal (a separate item) isn’t required for Carroll’s work. It’s nice but much more expensive than generic options. Other bullet journals fit the bill for a much lower price. Carroll himself admits such in the Frequently Asked Questions. Save yourself a few bucks, and buy someone else’s version. ## Frequently Bought Together - Fourth Estate The Bullet Journal Method: Track Your Past, Order Your Present, Plan Your Future - LEUCHTTURM1917 The Official Bullet Journal Edition 2 - Medium (A5) - Perfect Notebook Built for BuJo, 204 Pages of 120gsm Paper, With Bujo Pocket Guide (Black) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.fi/products/83654077-the-bullet-journal-method](https://www.desertcart.fi/products/83654077-the-bullet-journal-method) --- *Product available on Desertcart Finland* *Store origin: FI* *Last updated: 2026-06-22*
