This would really help me cause I find myself rewriting items for my to do list all the time! Thank you for sharing :D
I do mine a little differently. I put a dot on the day I start a task and an x when I finish the task so at a glance I know when something was started and finished.
I know Im asking the wrong place but does any of you know a trick to log back into an Instagram account..?
I was dumb lost my password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me!
@Cash Silas Instablaster ;)
@Ronan Joziah Thanks for your reply. I found the site through google and I'm trying it out atm.
I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Ronan Joziah it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thanks so much you saved my account!
@Cash Silas You are welcome =)
I love this! I have been procrastinating on starting my BuJo because I knew I would be rewriting so many tasks but this is a huge help!
As Ryder said, rewriting is what driving us to get the task done.
I LOVE the Dutch door spread you made! Totally going to give it a try - been struggling with too long task lists and forgetting sometimes to transition task to next week. Thnks for sharing!
Me too!! I need to see the month calendar in each working page and this is a great idea!
I love this! I’m in college and this is such a good way to write out homework and when assignments are due during the week :)
I’m giving the Alastair method a go this month.
Thank you.
I love the way you explain everything and give us examples thank you .
Watching numerous videos by many people did not help me understand Bullet Journaling until watching your videos. It finally clicked. I have watched many of your videos and videos by other people learning a lot. Ryder Carroll's website helped a lot also. Thank you for making your videos. Looking forward to using bullet journaling and watching more videos. Randy
I'd never heard of this, but this is such a good idea. Definitely going to use this for next week so I don't have to keep writing the same thing each day when I don't get them done!
I really like this method. I manage 100+ utility construction projects simultaneously that have numerous phases, steps, levels of difficulty and dependencies. I’m going to try this weekly running list. What I really like is the “1/2 X” or / to indicate worked on but not completed. This will help serve as a reminder that even if I didn’t finish something I DID work on it. 👏👏
I hadn't considered this method; However, this could work for me. Thank you for going into more detail about it.
I do this in a spreadsheet on my computer and have written a few easy macros that keeps the list up to date and sorted. If something needs to be carried over to next week it does it automatically. There are programs that you can buy but making my own spreadsheet was very easy.
Also I have it automatically sort by days of the week so I don't miss anything. Looking down a list in any order is one way of missing an item to do. One last macro is set up to sort by various tasks that need to be done prior to others.
Finally, if I need to I print out a task report for the day, week, or month I can do so easily. I also have it linked to my calendar on my phone and desktoo to set reminders.
Doing it by hand is way too time consuming and old fashion.
Could you possibly make a template of it (with no personal information) and share it as a google doc? It sounds neat and I really geek out w/respect to spreadsheets.
Just here to bump Dani Long's comment!
I completely agree with Dani. I would love a generic template of this. I love a good spreadsheet but am terrible at setting them up myself lol
I would like that too
This sounds amazing. I would also love to know more.
u explained this so beautifully
now I understand how this works
thank you
Thanks for this - it's incredibly helpful - now my BuJo won't be filled with random Post-it notes filled with tasks I don't want to forget but haven't scheduled a day for yet. :-)
I have struggled with planners for so long. Bullet journals were my best, but I still struggled. I had been using something similar and this video helps clear up some messy areas I had. Thank you so much!
I didn’t even know about this and I created it too! Now I know who already came up with it first! That’s so awesome to know 😊
This is a brilliant and clear explanation. Loved it thank you! Incorporating this pronto!
Of all the videos on this style of bujo Journalling this one is the best for me to understand.
I love this method! I'm starting a bullet journal for the first time in my life because I'm in DESPERATE need of organisation (i'm starting my last year of university, big projects and exams) and I'm definitely using this method!! Thank you!
Thanks, Kara, this method looks awesome. I've been struggling to coordinate weekly and daily task lists in my BuJo, but this just looks like the perfect solution.
I'm using this method for November. I was aware of it before but you inspired me to use it for weekly bujo. I'm loving it so far.
Love this video. Especially the dutch door! It's an amazing idea to use it for the monthly overview because my problem with monthly habit trackers or other long term spreads is that I forget to check on them
Thank you for making this video, I love this method because it really speaks to my need to 'dump' all the tasks that are cluttering my mind AND really works for my reoccurring tasks or "habits" like watering plants and self care. Definitely sharing and recommending this!
This whole set up was genius. 👏🏿 👏🏿 👏🏿 thank u. This has help me a lot. Especially the tabs and everything
I love this. I've been trying to figure out a way to incorporate my work tasks and home tasks into my bujo without ending up with multiple pages for one day. Leaves me with no space for doodles or journaling, which I've been trying to get back into.
I’m going to definitely try this weekly spread idea. My week is pretty up in the air with work and I end up making a mess of “traditional” weekly spreads. I’m a manager so some days are just really bad and I don’t want to do anything when I get home. This will still give me a bird’s eye view and keep things orderly. Yay!
I can see how this method is useful. I've tried it and have had a problem keeping up with it. I guess I need to try it again and make keeping up with it a priority. Thank you for this video!
Try it for your future log.
This looks cool! I do not have many events during the week so I'm still not sure about the weekly layout, but have tasks which should be completed on a specific week. This way I can plan better and can note also if I was lazy and did not complete something. Thank you for sharing!
well. that saved my brain, thank you! I keep dropping the ball in paper schedules and have switch to doing it in Goodnotes so I can have it on my phone too. Still liked the planning so I stop triple-booking and forgetting bills but every day is NOT how my life goes! Brilliant!
Kara, thanks for demonstrating the Alastair Method. I just might try it next time.
I've been using this method as my weekly log since your October plan with me. I absolutely love it and it's really helping me keep track of where I am on my uni project work too
I've always been quite intimidated by this method for some reason but you made it feel really easy! I'm going to try this ASAP!
This is a journal I actually see myself sticking with. Very practical and easy to integrate in a workflow
This is so helpful, thank you!! I have been trying to figure out how to plan my weekly tasks that don't have a "due" date, but still need to get done
It looks really useful, but I worry I might lose track of how many tasks I have per day, and when it comes to events and appointments, I might accidentally schedule things overlapping each other ;-;
Interestingly, this is very similar to a Franklin Covey planner method - their plastic bookmark was also a to-do list and you created a master list of things to accomplish that shifted to each day as you moved the bookmark, and then you organized your rolling list with priority colors or symbols to help you decide which was the most important to finish first. I use a variation of this in my weekly pages where I write the to-do list out on the left side of the page (I have a blank column) and then migrate individual items to specific days if I know that ahead of time or pluck things off the master list as I plan each day. It seems like a lot of repetition in writing, but it helps me organize my thoughts and reinforce what I am doing for that day by writing it again.
This is so smart, my new bujo is coming in 3 days and I’ll definitely use this!
I have been using this method as best as I can sense you showed it in your video when you created the Dutch door pages. Thank you for this video as it will help me really put this method into proper use!! I have been really enjoying this method sense I incorporated it a few weeks back. Thanks for sharing it then and explaining it better in this video!!
Bullet Journaling never worked for me, but I do use to do lists on a daily basis and was just searching for a new method to organise - corrently I use little notes to write but they always fill up and I need new ones, so I'll try this method starting next week and hopefully it will help!
Thank you for sharing this great method!
Love it! Definitely need to give this a try. Kinda glad I had been procrastinating my planning for next week, maybe subconsciously I was just waiting to find out about the Alastair method heh.
I have been doing this for past couple of months now, and I didn't even know that it was a separate method. Just came up with it and thought I was being very innovative :D
Very helpful for my multi task arrangement in office work. Appreciated the sharing.
This method save pages too. Very clear explanation. Thanks.
I seem to have accidentally invented this approach too! Damn! It could’ve had my name on it!!!
Lol they love putting a random name on it
I have been doing this for the past two months and its life saving
This is really cool and functionality 🙌🏼🙌🏼
I need to watch this again! I was staring in fascination at the dutch door showing the month header/habit tracker. :D I've missed a key video.
Me too!!!
This seems to be a great method, going to give this one a try, nothing else seems to work that well...I also need to carry a journal or something for work because from one day to the next I forget what wasn't done, what I need to add to the next day's schedule, etc. This would be a very quick method to track all those things. Thank you for the awesome ideas.
I used this method! And your video really helps me! ❤️❤️❤️
I used it for my art project and work this is certainly the best video so far!
I didn't know I needed this, till now
i''ve been living my life on post its, comparing myself to my grandma......this makes so much sense
I'm using my Alistair as a catch-all task list and habit tracker. I might add one for monthly/weekly to-dos as well.
This was so helpful. Thank you!
This is very much helpful. Thank u for sharing it
Wow! This tutorial helped me understand the Alastair method! Thank you! 😁
I’m just getting into bullet journaling and this rolling weekly approach. Thank you for making it so clear. Do you not use individual daily pages then? If so, how to you utilize them along with this full out weekly spread? Thanks.
I like this idea! I’ll definitely have to try this in my planner!
Thanks this so good ,so glad you shared.
Thank you very much . 😊❤
I love your video because I do exactly the same in my bujo... but you explain it way better than me. Now I can show your video instead of explaining myself. 😉
This is for me Both page layouts look great.
I just discovered this. Brilliant! I'm inspired!
This is an awesome idea for scheduling tasks. I’m going to try this.
thank you for posting! I have to set up november today and i'm going to try this!
HEY!!! I love this idea!!!! so much more efficient!! I dont need to purchase 2 Bujo's (one for business and one personal) Didn't catch how you created the dutch door....I am guessing that you trimmed the page.....
Yeah you cut the page
Excellent and very educational video. Thanks Kara for sharing looking forward to trying this method for November
Great video, Kara! I've been using the Alastair Method for my weekly to-do lists since you talked about it in your October plan with me, and it has been working really well for me.
I will be watching this again. I use a ring planner so I am going to try and do this in that.
I just found your channel, this looks amazing!! Thank you for sharing all the useful info, I will definitely be trying this method for my new bujo! Yt recommendation finally showed me something useful haha
I was using the Alastair method in my futur log but didn't realized I could use it in my weekly log. It's actually a very nice way to pack as much data as I can. I love to use as much space as I can in each page of my bujo and like many I'm sure, I usually have a lot of things happening in few days and nothing in others but I don't know that in advance. I can now use my bujo more efficiently because of you ;)
Unrelated to the video (which was great) I noticed you had the fl v ga game in your calendar! I go to uga and was in st simons that weekend! What a small world
Awesome! Love the set up! So glad I saw this, I'm going to give it a go right away!! ❤😊
I started this week and it has been a game changer!
I’m trying the Dutch page with an alistair method table instead of the habit tracker, so I can track bigger projects throughout the month. I’ve switched the table round so projects are along the top with weeks as rows. Will be interesting to see if it works for me! Thanks for inspiration!
Thanks a lot for the video. I would definitely try the Alastair Method. May sound strange but I have a page in which I write my dreams/nightmares on as far as I can remember waking up!!!
Thanks! This is the best explanation I've seen. I'm thinking about ways to use this in my systems. God bless.
This is going to be great for my work protects and tasks! Thank you for sharing!
Hooray! Cant wait to try this! Thanks Kara!
Thank you so much!! best explanation of this method😍💕
This is actually so helpful, thank you! I've been having some issues with managing my to-dos and this looks like a great way to do it. I will definitely try this :)
That's such an efficient use of space!
I like Alastair method and used it for a while similar way you do. But after while I realized that by listing tasks for whole week I’m missing the reflection points, do not use rapid logging and I stopped questioning if listed tasks are necessary and make sense. My bullet journal turned into task list instead of the reflection of my life and I didn’t like that. Now I’m back to basics based on the book and it’s working fine. Is your Bujo plain task list or do you have some way how to incorporate rapid logging and also reflect life as it’s happening?
Thinking about trying this and I'm gonna make an extra line/column behind my tasklist for hour registration.
You explained this really well
Hmmm...I like this set up and it is intuitive to how someone who is used to a planner can make the BUJO work for them. Thanks.
I would so love for you to work together with morpholio journal- sketchbook to make a journal app. Your hard copy bujo in a journal app that flips pages; heaven! And to be able to have monthly and weekly headers for overview. And tabs!
🤔 I guess I try that in my budget bullet journal, for tracking important tasks and events
Thank you for making this video and sharing the idea
I've been using this method since you mentioned it in another video recently. It's so useful! Thank you for sharing.
I really liked how you explained it. I might try this in mine.
This was SO incredibly helpful!!!!! ❤️❤️
Wow, this is brilliant. Litterally solves all my problems, thanks!
this is way better. love it! thank you for sharing!
Definitely gonna try that, I think this will make my current process a whole lot easier.
EEEHHHH!!!! So excited to try this out!!!
This is really usefull, I'll try it out for next week!
awesome method i think i will utilize in my digital planner! maybe it can help me better organize my personal life lol
Huge help! Did you replace your daily log with this method?
Her handwriting is similar to mine but so much neater!
I like this paper set up. Thanks for sharing a precise monthly and weekly plan. I really wish you showed your first page of this layout. I’m trying to figure out if your first week of rolling tasks starts on the first full page or first half page?
Thanks Kara! My bujo was getting kind of... too routine? I wanted to try something different!
