[ INBOX (1) | bujo for beginners! ]

Hi friends!

Welcome back to a bullet journal video! It's been so long since I last made a spread ideas video!!

This is for anyone who's just starting out bullet journaling and is overwhelmed with all the bujo spread possibilities AND this is also for the veteran bujo'ers out there who may need a refresher. I hope you enjoy this video and I pray my spread ideas can bring clarity, inspiration, and encouragement as you journal.

Let me know what other videos you'd like to see from me. I'm all ears!

Happy new year, loves. I pray you have a fruitful year full of opportunities for growth.

With all my love,
Claudia xx

What videos would you like to see from me in 2023? 💝✏✨

[mmveelee]

Oooh, I really like the Habit/sleep/mood tracker template! So simple and combines multiple into one page.

[mariexoxo]

aah this was exactly what I was looking for as someone who just started bujo! I love how minimalist yet effecient the spreads are and I really can’t thank you enough for this Claudia! 😭🫶

[thalitaviegas]

Absolutely in love with the last spread combining the sleep, mood and habits! this totally make sense for noticing patterns, for example when you don't get enought sleep your mood can be down and don't have the energy to do the habits as well. Thank you and happy new year!

[StationNerdy]

I love the habit/sleep/mood tracker you created, especially! Simple and not intimidating.

[mallikasharma]

*me watching this and incorporating into my absolutely non minimalist doodles themed bujo*

[thoranpernia]

I stumbled upon your channel and got sucked in lol I had never heard of Bullet Journaling before. Over the several decades I have been trying to find a paper way, then eventually an app to help me be more unchaotic in life. I was all over the place and nothing I tried ever worked. After watching some of your videos I decided to grab the BuJo book, a journal & a few things to start off with. I absolutely ❤️ your minimalistic spreads and plan on incorporating them to my journal. Thank you for sharing all that you do here. I also love how you have started into share faith BuJo ideas, definitely something I am interested in ... thank you!

[nabila]

Thank you for this! I love how you focus more on the purpose of the spreads rather than appearance. I once tried to make an intricate design for some of my spreads, and whew, wasn't it exhausting. Haha. Thankfully that didn't stop me from keeping a bullet journal.

For me, the daily log is kinda fused with the brain dump, simply because I always end up jotting down everything in my head while writing on the daily log. But creating sections for each day is indeed a good idea to keep the spread neat and organized!

On the other hand, I tend to make a gratitude log as a separate spread because it helps me see the bigger picture. It's useful especially when I'm going through a difficult time.

[MyraDrawz]

Thank you so much! This helped me so much! Earlier I felt that bullet journals needed an insane amount of decor to look after watching your videos I was able to make a neat journal fast, giving me time to actually do more productive stuff

[antisnotabug]

The combined sleep and mood tracker is totally brilliant

[samb]

Just wanted to say thank you very much Claudia this breakdown has really helped me. Having ADHD I'm overwhelmed most the time when starting something new, especially when it comes down to organisation, but this presentation has been beneficial after watching so many spread videos online. Loved the idea of prayer journal as well. Thumbs up and subbed. Best wishes from the UK.

[stephanyvivas]

Thank you so much Claudia, you inspire me. I started my bullet journal journey with your videos, it's one of the best choices I've ever made

[headhunter]

Thank you, thank you! How to set up the habit and mood tracker in a simple way was exactly what I was looking for. Thanks for making it so simple. 😎

[moustacheandnisi]

Loved your combined trackers! As for me, I find the brain dump section very counterproductive, as I already have a very structured way of thinking, so putting everything in such a broad section only makes things more chaotic for me. Whenever I want to track ideas or spontaneous thoughts, I do it in dedicated pages, like "ideas to decorate my bujo", "strategies to cut my spending", "night time routine", etc.

HAPPY NEW YEAR 😇
I started doing bullet journal on the occasion of the new year and this is the best channel to do so . Claudia thank you so much for all the minimalist spread otherwise I was had this mindset that bullet journal means a lot of money and decoration but your videos are my inspiration and motivation to start a BuJo ✨✨

[zenchestnuts]

The book is great, but you're videos totally bring it to life. I'm going to take a week with a cheap notepad just to do daily journal and then switch to my better one I bought once I'm happy to begin and not waste my time. You're experience is so helpful. I'm going to watch more. I have done loads of research on this and journaling for the last week. As a Google keep fan which I dump everything in with good titles(feels like 7 years worth. As long as Google keep began! ) this is going to be so fun and equally beneficial to me. Google keep is not connecting enough for me, I want it all in one journal now.
You're the best😊 THX again.

[joycemaurer]

Finally, truly minimalist layouts! Thank you, nicely done. I have my months down to 4 pages now. Monthly Log, To do list/appts and usually two pages for daily logs. Found that the weekly logs were too similar to the Monthly so eliminated those. Have a collection for debt payoff, blood pressure monitor and Christmas card/spending list. That's it! Much more likely to keep this up than my original "fancy" BuJo's.

[monline-jdjr]

out of multiple videos i watched, urs was the most helpful thank u claudia!

[starlingskys]

This really helps, I just wanted to know the basics of a good lay out and the basics of good trackers and all of that. Thank you!

[lisasremnant]

I like the sleep and mood tracker. I’m going to put that in my journal.
