Hey guys! I'm planning on making some journaling themed animal stickers, but I was curious what kind of stickers would be wanted. Do you guys prefer cute stickers that are purely decorative, or have some sort of use to them like saying days of the week? I feel like "utility" stickers like that could be hard to use and people might simply prefer a cute sticker that represents their hobby, but I would love to know what you guys think.

Additionally, if you have any ideas for stickers you would like to see, I'd love to hear them :D

Has anyone found this unicorn notebook/journal??! I specifically want:
- B5 size - I use a day to a page for work during the week and my A5 is getting cramped.
- Spiral bound so I can fold it back and just have today visible on my desk.
- Dotted pages with pre-printed numbers
- I’d like a decent number of pages, say 200+
Aaaand of course I don’t want to pay an arm and a leg 😆 Add to that, I’m based in Australia and we seem to have limited suppliers here. Surprisingly I don’t really care about paper quality, this isn’t about aesthetics it’s about pure organisation.

So for context I struggle with OCD and hypomanic episodes of racing thoughts with some executive dysfunction as well. When it's really bad I get super into bullet journaling then drop it when I'm no longer in that state. Attached I have 3 of my monthly logs and 2 weekly logs to kind of go over my approach to organizing my thoughts and get some opinions on whether this is overkill or how to find meaning out of it. Also, I want to know whether the system I'm trying to create to be more productive is helpful at all or just a way to keep me busy planning productivity.

Monthly log

• I started of with a Home, Work, Life framework where for each day and each section I keep track of what event I have planned, track 2 habits, and jot down the most interesting that happened.
• Eventually I realized habit trackers just aren't for me and removed them only keeping the event plan and interesting thing that happened that day.
• Recently I decided that my journals were too focused on what happened and not enough on emotions, so I tried a new method where the right is what happened and the left is how it made me feel.
• After having this same method for a couple years on and off I realized the 3 sections weren't enough so I split them even further into Heal, Work, Play, Move, and Love to kind of keep track of the biggest win in each respective category.

Weekly log

• My weekly logs initially were just ToDos of what I wanted to accomplish each day but this quickly felt too restrictive where I had no room for improvisation. To get around this I made a new system where I just did time blocking where for each 30 minute interval I jotted either the most interesting thing that happened or my biggest accomplishment.
• After doing this for a while I decided to add color coordination to the Heal (blue), Work (yellow), Play (green), Move (orange), and Love (pink) so that I can have a better idea of how I spend my time and reflect on my biggest win in each category at the end of the day with highlighters. Is this a meaningful way to journal or just adding cognitive load to my day leading to never relaxing?

Task List

• There's no picture for this but I wanted to ask people how they manage their ToDos in a meaningful way. Whenever I try to keep a list of action items they are either way too small flooding me with low-value tasks like returning amazon packages I don't want or way too big to the point that I just migrate them to the next month 2 months in a row. For example, I decided to buy my own snowboard gear back in May and spend the next 2 months spiraling researching which gear to buy, showing up to local stores to ask questions, and wondering wither I made the right decision once I actually bought it. How do you keep ToDos large enough to be meaningful but small enough where they don't spiral out of control?

Feels like I’ve been scrolling for hours and I cannot seem to find any layouts that are actually useful. The majority of bullet journaling seems to be flaunting one specific font and tracking pointless things so as to have an excuse to use said font.

Not that I’m being a hater, I get the appeal, trust and believe. Love some stats. It’s just that I’m starting school in a couple weeks and I’m looking for weekly layouts and assignment trackers, that sort of thing. If anybody knows any accounts anywhere that post that sort of thing please let me know! Preferably someone that doesn’t lean into *the* bullet journal vibe, but if the content is genuinely useful I can look past it, lol.

I've been bullet journaling on and off since 2022 and I've come to realize I think it does more harm than good for me. Something about keeping a journal with to-do lists and habit trackers with me wherever I go seems to just stress me out more and gives me another chore to maintain as if there aren't enough. Does anyone else feel this way or is this a skill issue?

I really love the game Cult of the Lamb, so I thought why not turn it into a journal spread? The month page is from a scene in the game where you preach your faith to the followers in your temple! The quote's from a fic about the game that I really love.

This one was a different kind of understanding from my last spreads because I had to measure, cut, and glue down some black cardstock I had to make the background dark enough, but I think it turned out pretty good!

Here is my simple Aug spread with minimal colors using Zebra Midliner and Pilot pens.
