Finally filled a whole monthly spread without missing a single day
I started bullet journaling back in January just to track my water intake and sleep. Stuck with it for about 3 weeks then gave up like always. This month I decided to try something different. I put my bujo on the kitchen counter instead of my nightstand. Turns out seeing it while I make coffee every morning actually worked. I filled every single day for July without skipping. That's 31 days straight which is a record for me by a long shot. The weird thing is I only used 3 colors the whole month and kept it super plain. No fancy banners or washi tape. I think the simpler layout helped me stick with it. Has anyone else found that putting your journal in a random new spot made a difference?

Did you try keeping your pens right next to the journal? Thats what finally clicked for me. I glued a little magnet to a pen and stuck it to the fridge so I literally couldn't miss it. And yeah, plain and simple is where its at. I gave up on color coding after week one and just used black for everything.

Oh come on, discipline is overrated. If you have to force yourself to journal, you're probably doing it wrong. A magnet on the fridge won't fix the fact that some people just don't need to write everything down to be organized.
