She gave tips on how to take effective notes so that you can integrate them with your planning. They are similar to a system I've been using since the early 2000s, minus the index. I start a unique page for every topic, rather than continuous page use, so I can find what I'm looking for fairly quickly.<br /><br />BuJo is a very structured system for logging information on a daily basis, using symbols, rather than note-taking or planning. Ryder didn't invent note-taking, using symbols, nor did he invent the index. He just packaged them together in a new way, using modern, trendy tools. <br /><br />(Franklin planning system has been teaching task symbols and indexing since the 80s, with their ring systems). <br /><br />Breehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00439533442915361300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-91901705516678696342016-09-07T10:06:26.769-05:002016-09-07T10:06:26.769-05:00I use the bullet journal system at work only - in ...I use the bullet journal system at work only - in a lined Markings notebook. My planner - a Filofax Pocket Malden - is for everything else. I cannot combine the two because my work tasks are so huge that I would overwhelm my planner. My job is very task driven (no appointments/events) so using the bullet journal system in a notebook works perfectly.<br /><br />I did try to use both a notebook (bullet journal style) as a companion with my planner for non-work, but I got tired of jockeying between the two and wanted a 'one focused tool' for both work and non-work.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-72983413968666492322016-09-07T08:06:36.696-05:002016-09-07T08:06:36.696-05:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-863557816383416771.post-63106861205266381272016-09-07T08:04:23.392-05:002016-09-07T08:04:23.392-05:00Agreed, this is the bullet journal system.
