Remember that creating a journal shouldn't be a pre-set design. Using the Bullet Journal principles you can create a journal that suits your needs best. So your journal will look different from mine because we have different requirements.
I recommend spending a bit of time thinking about what you need and why. Use the "Building Your Bullet Journal" worksheet from Lecture 4 to help you expand on this idea.
- What style of paper would you like?
- How many pages do you need?
Don't worry, we'll dive into these in more detail afterwards.
Exercises: pause the video at any time to try out one of the ideas that you are watching. Later in Section 4 of this course breaks down each exercise more closely.
