Bullet Journaling: Life Management for Creatives

Overview

Coursera Plus Monthly Sale: All Certificates & Courses 40% Off!

In this course artists and creatives will learn how to set up their first, successful bullet journal - a custom organization and productivity tool that combines planners, notebooks, project managers, and more. Bullet Journaling ("Bujo" for short) is, IMO, especially impactful and effective for creative brains, including creative brains with ADHD (like mine!). Here's what I cover in this course:

  • A beginner-friendly class project + class resources
  • My story of failing (big time) with bullet journaling 10 years ago, and how I got here, (loving it)
  • The benefits of bullet journaling for creatives and people with ADHD
  • Bujo building blocks (index, future spread, monthly, daily, custom collections, etc)
  • My personal spreads (basic, favorites, and failures, too!)
  • Digital complements like Google Calendar and Evernote
  • A quick start guide for getting up and running without a fuss
  • Use cases and how the system flows
  • My best tips for chronic procrastination (because it's painful </3)

Bullet journaling was invented by Ryder Carroll, I learned about it in his book The Bullet Journal Method: Track the Past, Order the Present, Design the Future; I highly recommend it.

Wishing you magic, presence, and empowerment
