2022 Pocket Bullet Journal Setup | A6 L1917 | LindseyScribbles

Here's my latest bullet journal setup. One of these days I'll actually stick with the notebook I setup on camera. I enjoy the simplicity, and portability of this A6/Pocket Leuchtturm 1917 dot grid notebook. The hard cover notebook with an elastic closure allows me to get focused on the contents of my planner and less on how I carry it around.

If you're a notebook cover addict (like myself) no shame - I'm just trying to focus my funding on different things in 2022, and nothing works better for me than removing a temptation versus attempting some willpower.

Aw man. And now I'm thinking about going back into an A6 haha. There's just something about a small notebook that's so satisfying. It's not intimidating bc it's easy to fill a page and then once you've filled multiple pages it just feels lived in.

I also switched to A6 size journal that I write daily task lists, notes and general thoughts. I still am going to use my A5 bullet journal but for longer collections and planning on year/quarterly/monthly with week schedules. I find the smaller size so much more convenient to move places with and quietly take notes as to the full size journal. I always thought it was wild how people used so many planner/journals but like I get it now each one is for a specific task or situation and they all work together to be more productive or whenever you’re going for

that reading log w/ the format option for fanfiction is an absolutely killer idea how have I not thought of that

This is my favorite journal set up I've ever seen! So simple, clean, and functional, while also being creative and fun. Also looks realistically maintainable. Excited to make my own version!

I just love the Midori MD paper it is by far my favorite. But the Leuchtturm paper is really really nice and I just love LT for bullet journaling. I love that they have more pages, they are totally self contained, they have the hard cover, the labels, and pocket. Even tho I like the MD paper I also do not dislike the LT paper and the notebooks LT makes are so much more all-in-one I always bullet journal in them

I've always loved the L1917 A6 size! If I ever go back to straight-up bullet journaling it'll be in those. It's so satisfying to fill them quickly - you could almost do one per quarter. ^_^

Your bujo does not hurt my eyes. Just when I started feeling the pull to add another color, your video popped up like an oasis.Thank you.

I LOVE that you included fics in your reading log :D

[frederikbruck]

Never seen these things closed diagonally. My "internal Monk" is going completely nuts at the moment!
There's no need for this to contain the pen: The pen-loop also comes in an XL-version to tuck in Fountainpens... (even rather "girthy" ones)

[scotsman]

I’m definitely team A6 for bullet journaling! Great insight and helpful tips!

[karencolum]

Very good use of space. I love how you are able to pack lots of information into a small notebook. I did the same as you recently and back plan. However I didn’t put all the notes I had in January back in, just the most important things. I can totally relate on valuing portability. I am moving smaller this month from my Leuchtturm bullet journal edition 2. I love the new 120 gsm paper with my fountain pen ink but it is just too heavy. I do journaling in a Leuchtturm the regular paper and I have a Pilot vanishing point with a fine nib and I use Sailor Pigmented ink Kiwaguro and no feathering.

I do have a question. Is this just personal? Or do you include some work related things? You mentioned that you can have it out in your desk. So I’m wondering how you use it during work?

[RezChik]

Thanks for posting! I am considering a pocket or A6 bullet journal for work and this was a helpful video

[melissabridge]

I used to use the L1917 a5 size for snippet journal. I got so tired of dating it out. When I found Hobonichi planners I never went back. a6 is now my jam. I use the a5 for memory journal.

[sandrapawula]

Very cute! The weekly sets ups remind me of the Hobonichi weeks! :-)

[abrazor]

Cool setup. I just started at this and have a MD (MIDORI) journal that is a little larger than A6. In Japan it is called "bible size". LOL. Trying to keep it as minimal as possible. Many good ideas here so thank you.

[nohanabil]

I am SO switching to pocket. Lately, I have been finding my a5 planner to be LARGE and kind of uncomfortable. Thanks for sharing your setup

[mjimenez]

Love this setup! What do you bring with you when you travel? A6 and Hobo Weeks? I am traveling soon and would love hear what works for you.

[EmEmJee]

Hi lindsey! I have the same fountain pen but in a fine nib and it bleeds through the 80g leuchttrum paper like crazy. Would you say the DeAtramentis Ink is worth giving a try? Do you have to wright lightly in your notebook for the ink not to bleed?

[nehhachadda]

I didn't get what's the date log. Is it like a past log.

[endlessstudent]

Love this!! I’m planning on buying an A6 Leuchtturm and this video gave me so many great ideas!!
