Welcome to another post! I haven't posted for a while, but I am excited to discuss the future of student organisation! Bullet journaling, a popular concept which started coming to life during 2018, is a great creative outlet for students to plan and journal.
First, talking about the difference between journaling and planning. Planning is when you write to do lists, know what you are doing and time-block! It is basically used to keep track of your day-to-day schedule! A journal, on the other hand is where you write your thoughts, feelings and vent into the book. For most people, journaling leans more on the mindful side, while planning helps more with their organisation! Overall, a bullet journal is the best of both worlds.
Daily stress can in the end, get to us all, but from an early age (during student years), it is beneficial to keep your mental health stable and well, and keep your life organised. Juggling these two very important aspects can be challenging and tough, and that's why bullet journaling is absolutely perfect for students!
The concept of bullet journaling allows the user to plan their week, track their moods and habits and unleash their never-ending creativity! It's a physical diary, that allows you to create your own spreads and so much more! (comment if you want a guide video on YouTube for bullet journaling {with a premade bullet journal!})
In 2024, bullet journaling continues to stand out as an invaluable tool for students. Its customizable format offers a myriad of advantages, providing a platform for enhanced organization, time management, and personal productivity. With the ever-growing demands of academic life, bullet journaling allows students to tailor their planners to suit their individual needs, fostering a sense of ownership over their schedules and goals. Its flexibility accommodates various learning styles, enabling students to track assignments, set priorities, and create detailed study plans. Moreover, the creative freedom it offers encourages self-expression and mindfulness, contributing to reduced stress and increased motivation. In a digitally saturated world, the tactile experience of pen and paper promotes focus and retention, making bullet journaling an enduring and effective tool for students navigating the complexities of education in 2024.
Sounds great and all, but aren't students always short on time? Well! There is a remedy! Premade bullet journals are available everywhere! From YouTubers and Etsy sellers, premade bullet journals are made available! The concept of premade bullet journaling is that certain spreads (such as mood tracker and weekly spreads) come printed, usually in black or white (for the user to colour in). Premade bullet journals generally leave a few empty pages per month so the user can still decorate the journal to their own taste and can still add their own custom spreads. This helps solve the problem about time, and still allows the user to use their creativity! The user can make their own spreads! A student could make assignment trackers, exam revision dates and so much more! A parent could log their Childrens' meals to ensure that they are healthy!
