@renevanbelzen yes, lol, that is the minimalist version. And it’s not for everyone! But one thing I like about it is that I’ll drop it for months at a time and then pick it back up, and there won’t be a swathe of empty dated pages that I “missed” like in pre-dated notebooks.

@renevanbelzen hi! i wanted something that would help with planning/project management and started by watching this video ( youtu.be/fm15cmYU0… ) and an A5 notebook with page numbers. i didn’t let myself venture into the more artistic/pretty side of bullet journaling becaue it overwhelmed me. i just kept to the basics and it’s a tool i rely on now! happy to answer questions, not that i’m an expert on it
