Janine and Shannon have talked quite a bit about electronic task management, but in this episode, we delve into bullet journaling, a hand-written task management system. Shannon's been using this system for years and Janine is a starry-eyed novice. Discussion topics include: • How Bullet Journaling is one of a number of things that Janine has embraced after Shannon did it for a long time • Shannon's assertion that she benefits because Janine then tells her stuff she didn't know about • Janine's shift from electronic to paper for task management • What is a Bullet Journal? A bound, indexed journal in which you capture information quickly • The Bullet Journal's special sauce: Its index, which is brilliant in its simplicity • The value of handwriting the weekly schedule and tasks for Shannon (even though she also captures them electronically) • Shannon's weekly approach to her Bullet Journal vs Janine's monthly/daily approach • Shannon's notebook recommendation: hard cover, dot grid with pre-printed page numbers • Pen recommendations: Shannon loves the Pilot Frixion pens and Janine loves the Pigma Micron 01 + Zebra Mildliner markers • Fast-writing vs slow-writing pens • The perils of watching Bullet Journal YouTube videos • Our agreement that the fancy spreads shown off on YouTube don't really represent what Bullet Journaling is all about • Shannon's advice to new Bullet Journalers: Read Ryder Carroll's explanation and avoid YouTube • Keeping Bullet Journals simple and sustainable • The Bullet Journal Companion App • How the ever-changing content of a Bullet Journal helps keep the system fresh • How a good-enough attitude helps when you Bullet Journal • Shannon's weekly spread that she based on the Planner Pad • Bullet Journal Collections + the Future Log • Starting small with the Bullet Journal Check out the show notes at www.gettingtogoodenough.com for sample pages from our Bullet Journals and links.
