    Very Inspiring and Informative

    5.0

    I liked a lot of the information in here on what bullet journaling is and how to do it. I didn’t know what it was exactly or how to go about doing it. I found it’s probably not what I personally would use, but the tutorials in the last section of this course are very inspirational. I really liked those videos in that section. Even though I probably won’t create a bullet journal any time soon, I at least got what I wanted from this course, which was to know what bullet journaling is, how to do it, and what types of things I can use it for. I was going to rate it 4 stars because I probably won’t create a bullet journal myself, but it’s definitely worth a 5 star rating. Totally recommended to anyone looking to learn what bullet journaling is and wants to successfully use it.

    Like eating an elephant sandwich…one bite at a time. Thank you for all the suggestions, and ideas and for leaving it open for me to personalize. I liked the short segments as my mind tends to wander. I believe the social media/short video world we are in today, this format was perfect for most mindsets. Great examples of what you have done in your journal journey.

    This was a great introduction to something I have heard about for a while. It was well presented and inspiring to be a bit more accountable with my time, goals, habits and gratitude while using my creativity to design a journal. It was done in a way that didn’t feel too overwhelming. Thanks!!
