A bullet journal is mainly a planner that you can tailor to your concrete needs. What’s more, bullet journaling works as a de-stressor much like adult coloring. Let these layouts inspire you to work on your penmanship and your planning. All you need is a little patience and practice to master this art.

02. Get Started With a Simple Monthly Layout

Bullet journal doesn’t have to be complicated. When you’re just a green hand, experiment with different monthly layouts until you find one that works best for you. Keep it in a simple manner. Use a small ruler or a straight edge and a decent pen to handle this monthly setup.

03. Log Monthly Utility Bills

Keeping track of your utility bills is a great way to monitor your spending. By keeping a page in your planner, it’s easier to look back and make estimates for how much you’ll have to spend in the future since these bills tend to fluctuate with the seasons.

04. Make Sure You’re Eating Right

Anyone trying hard to lose weight or keep a healthier diet usually has some poor eating habits they need to get rid of. However, for most people, breaking a habit isn’t as simple as making a mental commitment and sticking to it. Having some form of accountability as well as a visual reminder is a really great way to stay on task.

05. Figure Out Which Habits Have Become Obsessive

Habit trackers have become really popular mainly as a result of how helpful visuals are when breaking or developing new habits. There are numerous smart-phone apps that will remind you of things to do, such as to drink more water, but some might argue that the act of taking pen to paper is a more effective solution.

06. Keep Your Savings Goals in Check

When you’re working out of one or two bank accounts, it’s easy to spend money which is actually designated for something else. This bullet journal layout makes different buckets for your money based on bigger ticket items. When you’re working hard to take that trip abroad (and you’re reminded of the trip in your journal), you may be less likely to purchase that expensive shirt you don’t need.

07. Practice Your Doodling Skills

Once you get your basic layouts perfected, step out of your comfort zone and work on some more advanced and complicated lettering and doodles. There are lots of inspiration pages and tutorials out there, which will demonstrate you how to form certain shapes and symbols. Most of them are much simpler to create than they look, as long as you know how to do it.

08. Write Down Your Top Goals

Goal layouts are a helpful way to practice some more refined lettering and doodling. Start your page with three semi-circles using a compass. Then, pick one of your favorite inspirational quotes to go in the center. Lastly, pick some simple geometric or floral doodles to accent your circles.

09. Never Forget Your Parent’s Anniversary Again

This date layout doesn’t take much time to finish, however, it is one that can be looked back at many times all the year round. One might argue that a phone or Facebook app can remind you of birthdays and holidays, however, the act of writing out the dates could help you remember them.

10. Track Your Moods With Color

Moods come and go, and it’s significant to acknowledge and embrace them without being too hard on yourselves. Tracking moods throughout the month, particularly for women, is a great way to see if there are patterns. Perhaps you notice a certain color (i.e. anxiety) showing up at the same time every month. Maybe it’s cyclical. Keeping this chart can help you and your doctor get to the bottom of negative emotions as well as help you honor the positive ones.

11. Plan Your Next Adventure

Travelling can be a spontaneous experience, but most of the time, a little bit of planning goes a long way. Create a layout of all the places you’d love to see, things you’d like to do and people you’d like to visit along the trip.

12. Express Your Gratitude Often

Expressing gratitude is a suggested way to maintain our mental health in check since it brings our awareness to details of our life that promote positive emotions. It might seem easy to rattle off a list of things we are thankful for when we are happy, but the challenge is to create layouts like this when we are stressed out and not the best version of ourselves. Honing in on this exercise in these moments will have the most impact, but frankly, anytime is a good time to practice being grateful.

13. Make a Cleaning Routine and Stick to It

Who doesn’t love a clean and tidy house? Though, some of us are better at keeping a clean home than others. Breaking down your household cleaning routine into stages will make household chores seem more manageable. First, get out of the habit of trying to clean your whole house in just a day. Next, figure out which tasks should be done when and chart them out. Keep your plan feasible so as to make the most of this layout.
