HABIT TRACKER: Use it as a tool to build awareness, not to judge yourself or hate yourself for not doing more. OMG, THANK YOU. Just that simple sentence helps a lot!
Wanna hear something weird? I had my first comment where I had 1.7k likes yesterday. It got deleted because I made a "controversial" edit. I thought, "welp, I'll never get that many likes again.". HOURS LATER, I got a notification for this comment. It has the EXACT SAME amount of likes. AH, WTF??! 😲 Thanks guys!
I've recently become interested in starting a bullet journal, and I've watched a few starter videos. Yours has so far been the clearest and most instructive of them. I am not very artistic or creative, so your minimal approach really suits me well. Your video is exactly what I was looking for, so thank you!
So do i. I want to try my first bullet journal but i'm very confuse with the art. I can't do lettering or paint. Of course it need many tools that i've to buy. Glad to see that bullet journal is not that complicated.
Hi :) When I started i was also overwhelmed by all those fancy styles. What I did was just search in Instagram and Pinterest for monimalistic bulletjournaling. You will find great spreads there that are just functional. Also the official website, bulletjournal.com , has the easiest spreads. Example: A monthly overview is just all the dates written down as a list. Nothing more. They also have a youtube channel, so maybe check that out!
Her approach is quite artistic I will never fit all that info in the tiny space she allots. I can’t write like a typewriter-and I have nice handwriting lol Ah well I ll keep on with my dumps and trying to make lists from them and trying to schedule them. Life is way more messy than this gorgeous journal in the vid. I love every one of my messes tho. Ages 15 to 3, all homeschooled.
i’m literally crying at 3am in front of my 2 overdue reports while watching productivity videos edit: it’s been a year since i’ve commented this and i come back often to see these replies when i need to. humans can be really nice sometimes :) thank you
Don't panic and don't feel burdened. Things happen you need to accept it the way it has become. Calm down and take deep breaths, have faith in yourself. Just start doing what's left without sabotaging yourself in anyway. Meditate and the world will change !! Here to help if you need. Smile 😄
You and I are masochists. We happily postpone and send to the backburner like a pro. And then, when the 100% obvious, foreseeable and avoidable sh*t hits the fan, we freak out. Oh really, brain?
This video has literally changed my life. I have struggled for years to find a planning/journaling system that helped me manage my ADHD mind and this was exactly what I needed. It’s been fun an engaging to do, so I actually keep up with it! And it is an almost perfectly comprehensive system for everything I need. Thank you so much for this!
I have ADHD and always wanted to bullet journal but it became so overwhelming. The way you laid out the key and yearly calendar (that’s as far as i am in the video lol) was so perfect for how my brain works! I can’t wait to try, thank you. ❤️
Ryder Carroll invented this system to work with his ADHD brain! I highly recommend watching his video and the book is great too. The beauty is you can make it work for you. If you get bored with it, change it up. Forget to do it for a while? Flip the page and start again. Get curious about why a task was not completed. Did it need to be broken down into a smaller task? Is it not important or relevant anymore? Good luck!
100% relate to this! I've dreamed of being the type of person that could bullet journal and watching this video actually made me feel like it was possible...I ordered one the day I watched this and now I am back to set up my journal! ADHD impulse by or healthy life decision? I guess we will see!! I am excited to positive changes! lol
Given the chaos, interruptions from tech, toxic / traumatic news images.....I think this bullet journal approach is a gift from the ADD people to the so-called "normals" i.e the rest of us. For someone with obsessive traits like me its the absolute necessity to prioritize is one of the aspects that help the most.....thank you and also the replies below were great too G
Hello Miss Limes I’m a dude with a beard and a construction job. I watched the whole video. This is not my thing but wow. I’m so happy for you. Your nitch here on TH-cam is very simple and cute. Your having fun. Very cool. We are all rooting for you! Kind of wish I had a cool TH-cam channel like your. It’s so relaxing
Lol, I think the media and internet is largely responsible for that and it's getting out of control. For example, every news channel or social media story (or commenter) tells you what you should be mad about everyday. That's where the gratitude journal comes in, I guess.
@@skywalker6648 very true. It's the main reason why I take weeks or months off social media at a time. It's also why I love this channel so much- no matter what's going on around me, I can also count on Sadia to calm me down with her peaceful videos, and remind that there's still so much goodness to be thankful for. I am very grateful to be living in an age where we can know people like Sadia and their ideas so easily.❤️
I felt so sorry when I heard she was planning 2020 (I'm commenting from January 2023). Hope everything went as well as possible in 2020 for you! Loved the video ❤️
But don't be! Sadia is a very resilient person I'm sure she maneged to do something productive during 2020 (beside all the bad part, this "slow down" moment was helpful for some of us🙏)
not gonna lie - been bullet journaling 3 years now and I've had a lotttt of arrows at times but it still ends up getting done with end of month reviews and all. Eventually it also helped to have no more than 3-5 todos for the day :)
Maybe the things you write aren't relevant to you anymore or you put too much on your plate, or maybe you're a little lazy.. if you do try it don't let those arrows stop you cuz even when you migrate a lot of tasks you still do some of them, doing some is indeed better than not doing any at all, isn't it??

I use a line with 24 segment one segment for each hour of a day for each day , my mostly tasks are repetitive daily as a student, i have colour coded all my basic things like study,sleep,free time etc.. i fill in the each segment according to the taks i did, it helps me keep track of the whole day and analyse how productive i was
An idea for the BRAIN DUMP page: for the first month, do not limit yourself with pre-determined sections; instead have a blank page and write down every thought, when the month is over analyze what your common topics are so you can better determine your sections moving forward
Love love love this. My commitment issues are so deep I can't even start a journal because what if I need more pages! I'm trying to work with my own issues by using a ring bound frankenplanner so I can move things and add stuff.
WOW Saaaaaaame!! Hahha! I'm curious about this method and I just know that she's someone who will give some simple, practical advice on it. Thank you PUL!!
something you do that I really like is you don't just design it. You show us how you used it and I really appreciated that, its so hard for me to visualize what this will be like when I'm working through it, and just seeing the really used examples is SO useful ty
This will be my first journaling attempt and you've really saved the day with this. I was too scared to do any water colouring to make it pretty etc but this is PERFECT. just a black pen and a ruler and also the best headings!! Seriously saved the day 🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Yes. I started mine a bit artsy but generally very minimalistic. I think artsy journals are more for creative people who prefer a diary rather than a more professional place for your tasks and organisation. Both are good for different kinds of people.
THE BEST B.j 'how to' video I've seen! I went through several others before finding this one, and stopped after 2-3 minutes of them doodling their names on the front cover. In this one, she goes step-by-step, moves quickly but efficiently through the process and keeps it simple. I'm a business-owner-entrepreneur-mom, who doesn't have time for all the cutesy art work that so many others were doing and almost gave up on the process but this was a beautiful and aesthetically pleasing instructional. Thank you so much! I'm ready to get 2022 on!
I still remember very well: back to January, this video appeared in my recommended videos. I decided to watch it and by that time I had no idea what a bullet journal was. Now I can't live without my own

As someone who struggles to stick to things consistently, I have been bullet journaling for 2 years and now into the third. Love this video so much, it is the one that got me started :)
This is exactly how I need my bullet journal to be. I need my daily tasks as well and I also like having sections to do brain dumps and check-ins since like you, I also am recovering from my condition and check-ins will help me see my progress in another light (e.g., from not being able to walk to now walking with a quad cane). This is terrific!
I tried bullet journaling at the beginning of last year, and quickly got frustrated by it not looking as beautiful and perfectly laid-out as most of the examples I could find online - I'm not much of an artist, and seeing all of those 'perfect' journals with gorgeous illustrations and not a single drop of ink out of place was frankly depressing and I quickly lost my motivation to try to keep up with the journal. But this, like most of your videos, really cuts the concept down to easier, more achievable steps and has wonderful focus on not trying to make it 'perfect'. After watching, I went and dug out my old bullet journal, removed the few pages I filled out from last year, and followed your ideas for the layout (personalizing by switching a few pages around and adding a few I feel will benefit my lifestyle more.) Thank you so much for another lovely and inspirational video!
Aw thanks so much, Bondi, I hope you enjoy the process! Keep it easy, simple, remove anything that doesn't serve you. You can always add more to it later :)
The creator of the bullet journal has quite a minimalist approach. If there is a desire to be creative though how about just one monthly creative page (like doodles, sketch, drawn or printed art)? Perhaps that'd satisfy your creativity but make things less daunting? :)
@@StardustDNA Nope, been using my bullet journal consistently (with great success!) since the day I posted this comment, and am quite happy to get all my artistic fulfillment from my highly creative career, haha. So yeah, drawing in it isn't for me, but thank you so much for the suggestion! Maybe it'll help someone else scrolling through the comments one day. :D
out of hundreds of bullet journal videos, I was really waiting for Sadia's video on this and her smart tips and tricks. MY LIFE IS NOW COMPLETE. THANK YOU SO MUCH 😍♥️♥️
me watching this at 2022 want to say thank you so much for this. I got my interest to bujo because how artistic they are (and I love arts so much). But as a beginner, it's pretty overwhelming to see bullet journal videos which are so pretty, aesthetic, and full of creativities.. thinking that I might not make as good as them. That makes me cannot start at all! But this video saved me. It's so minimalistic with a very clear instructions and so simple!!! I immediately thinks "I can definitely do this much.." Thank you so much!!
When I just started bujo, I bought all those cute stickers and washi tapes that suits my aesthetic- thinking that a bujo should look aesthetic and pleasing in the eyes. Well, didn't manage to keep up doing all the pretty spreads for more than 5 weeks- I gave up. I felt so much pressure to maintain the aesthetic of my bujo, rather than to actually update my bujo with tasks. As time goes by, I realized that an effective bujo is all I need. You dont have to follow all the spreads that other youtubers shared but just take which one suits and works for you! 🌼 Now, my bujo is so simple- one highlighter and a black pen. And I have never been happier.
@@nurfarahhanun7795 yes exactly you have to find your middle in all this. We shouldn't put pressure on ourselvs on how others do them, because it's really super personal ☺️ and we should tell ourselvs that we can always change our bujo however we want, because it's you that make it. That's how I made myself today make mine 😂👍🏻 if we do a mistake, just change the page - redo or just correct with white pen or something like that 🙈 Thanks for your words it motivated me even if it wasn't directed to me 😊🌸
One of the things I am most grateful for this year is having had discovered your channel, Sadia! You are a beautiful person, an inspiration, and someone I always look forward to seeing when I open TH-cam. Thank you so much for all your wonderful content, and have a blessed and happy 2020!!! Much love from Mexico City!!
Norell A. Winburn I agree 100% with you. Her content is excellent and I appreciate the flow of her speech, that is calming while also keeping my full attention.
This was by far the most helpful set-up I’ve seen. Thank you! I feel like everything else was overwhelming. Your approach was easy to follow, made sense, and left room for customizing. I can’t thank you enough!
I think a lot of ppl don’t understand bullet journaling is anything you want it to be!!! From it being very very artistic to being very very simplistic!! It’s what ever works for you and only you.
6:29 i just gotta say when she said "pick up limes" i understood "pick up liNes" and was very confused about why someone would want to think of pick up lines and write them down...
Thanks. Can you please tell me how do these monthly check-ins and weekly spreads work? I mean, do we create them at the beginning of every month? Do all check-in pages for all months are together or?
This is the best video on BUJO I have watched. I am not an artist - everything else seems too complicated. This was straight forward and to the point. And you are so calm! Thank you for posting!
This is one of the most beneficial journaling I’ve ever seen, and this is the first time I don’t feel overwhelmed with how the structure is or the design
Money! That was the important page for me when I started Bullet Journaling. I write the dates down the side, then make a note when I spend money. At the bottom I write down things that I'm thinking of buying in the future or things I'm saving for like a vacation or dishwasher and the debt I'm working on paying off. This is how I figured out what bills I have every month and how much they are! ☺️ And I finally got a handle on spending and saving after years of struggle.
I loveeee the fact that you really explain how things work for you and how you tailor it the way it's useful. Some youtubers stick to explaining the system the way Ryder Carroll made it in the beginning of their bullet journal videos, but they don't always work and then they stick to the artistic side of things, I think this is the reason why some people are scared to start bullet journaling - it can be quite daunting
For several years now I have wanted and attempted to start a bullet journal. I’d buy a few supplies here and there, I’d sketch page ideas on notebook paper, but somehow, when it came time to start, I never felt my journal was good enough. I know that thought is just silly. I know my bullet journal/planner is only for me, but when I look at all those beautiful Pinterest worthy pages others have posted, I feel I’m just too far lacking in artistry and creativity to continue and I quit before I really ever even got started. Today, however, something changed. I watched your video about starting a minimalist journal and I really enjoyed it. It inspired me to start again and since I’m now divorced, have a child away at college and one who spends a week at at a time with his father, I have way too much free time. THANK YOU for giving me the inspiration and the confidence to try again. I am truly grateful! ❤️
Watching others set up their bullet journals always makes me feel in awe of their artistic skills but also a little intimidated. Yours is so simple and achievable (yet also beautiful!) that I finally feel inspired to start my own.
I am planning on starting a bujo the next year, just trying to get my life together. So THIS video was a life saver... I am not exactly an artist, so, yeah this is simple and looks amazingly effective. Thanks, Sadia. I wish you a peaceful and joyful New Year, Sadia and whoever reads this....
I've been keeping a bullet journal for three years. I started out very fawncy 🏯 but now it is completely minimal🏠. I do a month at a glance, a tiny list of goals for the month, and my monthly meditation log which I also have another huge journal for as it covers many years. Then I do my week at a glance. That's it. Since it is a new year I will probably do a year at a glance and I might include Level 10 goals and chart as that always wakes me up! For years I used some sort of daytimer and it was my most essential tool as a therapist. But now I'm working less and the flexibility of this system really suits me. Thanks for sharing yours - a peek into your process is fun.
This was very helpful! I'm just recently looking into starting a bullet journal and your video was great! You are thorough but also go slow enough to see what you are showing us. Thanks!
I have watched several videos about starting a bullet journal, and yours is the first to show the details of setting up each page. Thank you... well done!
Thank you for this video! It is a crazy coincidence but I remember you had mentioned this in one of your videos. And yesterday I was watching some of your videos back to back to find it. I couldn't find it and today you have created a video dedicated for a Bullet Journal! I loved the way you have explained it, and I am excited to get started on my productive journey :)
I've always admired other's bullet journals but the way you explained your setup really clicked with me and I think I'll give it a try. 2019 wasn't the best year for me but I really feel motivated for 2020 and this came at the perfect time so thank you!
I love this, starting my first Bullet Journal and I was getting overwhelmed with how to start and what to do, but you really demonstrate and easy way to start, thank you!
I love how you organize the weekly & daily week at a glance! I’ve been trying to bullet journal while scheduling when I could accomplish tasks, and this is a perfect way to do it. Thanks!
You're wonderful. You've taken a process that the most well-intentioned of us have complicated and therefore given up on, and you've simplified it in a manner that is clear and accessible to many. Thank you for sharing your process and for all of the inspiring, beautiful videos you and your team create. You deserve every single subscriber you have earned. Happy New Year, Sadia! -Mary
@@createparadise Happy New Year! Thank you. Two kids and two jobs but I will be starting up again for 2020! Just subscribed to your channel as well. :)
I started journaling last year and to be precise it literally changed my life. Like whenever I'm stressed out I do journaling trust me it helped me a lot.😇 So this year give it a try and start a journal and you'll see the difference ✌
You might have just changed my life. Just made my Journal from June 2021. Millions and millions of thanks. May god fulfill all your wishes. More and more happiness and power to you. Cheers
Honestly, your approach gives me a WHY because I always have a WANT intent that I give up easily, so this is much useful and beautiful and minimal! So thank you Sadia, everything u said resonate so much with me!
Finally joining the bullet journal train. It's been quite overwhelming with all the ideas out there, but your video was so helpful. The recommendations are simple yet impactful. It has just what I need. I also really appreciate the reminder that this is to build awareness, not to judge ourselves. I feel at ease now to get into my journaling. Thank you for putting this together!
Best video I've seen so far about bullet journaling! The way you explain it and actively show the step-by-step is so easy to follow and draw inspiration from. Thank you!!
2 ปีที่แล้ว
The best Bujo setup I've found so far! I've been playing with different spreads and was having trouble getting it "right" in a way that I'd use it. I really like this one and have set up my 2022 journal similarly. Thanks for such a detailed overview! I especially love the focus on this being a tool, and not allowing it to become a pressure or judgment point.
I've been bullet journaling for one and half years and I still got great ideas from this. I love the minimal and functional aspect while still looking really nice. Thank you Sadia!
I started using this method the past few weeks and it has helped so much! I was like you, notes everywhere and very unorganized. This has been helping me stay productive and keep track of everything really well. I love it!
I love this so much because I feel like my abstract desire to "journal" has been without a guide. There are definitely some spreads and items in here I can take to my daily practices!
I appreciate how you followed up at the end with everything you went over. Lot of info even if video was short so follow up helped bring everything back .
I had been looking for yearly calendars; I had no idea this was even a option. So thank you for popping up on my feed. Although I looked at a few other bullet journal DIYs, I'm in love with the way you did yours and I literally copied down almost everything you did. Thank you for sharing this.
I've found the most success using a bullet journal without the actual bullet journal system. Because then I'll feel like I keep repeating the same tasks that needs to move over. But the concept is great and I've been using it for on and off 2 years. Definitely helped track my progress when I wasn't working a 9-5 (it can sometimes feel defeating since there's no set schedules and validation from manager/coworkers/etc.) Also, it's wonderful to look back on the different stages of life!
Watching and listening to you feels like I am in a seminar abt journaling, and it feels great. Thank you for this. This inspires me to do better in my journals.
I've had a bullet journal over two years now and I had episodes where I kept it very minimal, but I always come back to expressing myself creatively with it, so it got more "artsy". I have watched a ton of bujo videos here on youtube, quite a few minimal ones, too. But in your video you managed to present something that's at least new to me. I really loved the set-up and will definitely give it a shot and switch it up a little to my "artsy" likings. You have a very neat handwriting and I'm impressed by how clean it looks when you write out so many numbers!
I really like your weekly layout. I've been trying to figure out how to incorporate an hourly agenda, since that's what has been keeping me somewhat organized during this quarantine (and I realized I should keep a journal rather than my stack of dozens of sheets of printer paper w/notes). Your way works great, still gives plenty of room for to-do tracking/notes, and the agenda. And your "minimal" is already much more than I had started off doing. 2020 hasn't gone the way any of us anticipated or wanted it to, but I'm trying to reclaim some control. Thanks!.
It’s my first time watching Pick Up Limes. I am overwhelmed by watching you set up your journal, whew! I think I might try and turn my Franklin Planner into a planner and journal; I might try to incorporate some of the items you mentioned; Habit Tracker, Gratitude List, etc. Thank you for encouraging me to journal, which I have not done in decades, with your supportive video!❤
This video really inspired me to give bullet journaling a try. I really resonated with your description of feeling scatterbrained and having notes on random pieces of paper and digital notes all over the place. I have tried a journal for the last few years but there hasn't been much of a system and it just became a rolling to-do list scattered with random thoughts. I went through and setup a bullet journal for the month of may and it sounds crazy but I already notice a huge difference. Also I didn't understand the brain dump at first and thought it probably wasn't for me but now I'm wondering how I even functioned without putting all these random thoughts onto paper. Almost knowing that i have a place to put these thoughts has brought a lot of them bubbling to the surface.Thank you so so much for sharing!
I feel like I just went to therapy watching this video... Hearing you organize and evaluate your life so simply and broadly made me see my life in such a way, and I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders!
@@acleamofhope hey! Yeah Sadia is really amazing as a person! But yes, I too get jealous of how together her life is. But you know, social media is hyped. Sadia says so herself! And tells that nothing is as perfect as they portray on TH-cam. So no need to be jealous 🥰 we are all just as happy 😊
@@delicias.p8405 with jealous i was referring to being in a café like she is in the video :) it wasn't possible to do that where i live until recently because of the pandemic
@@acleamofhope oh sorry for that!! Yes, I too feel very hurt that life has changed, social interactions very minimum 🥺🥺 Being in a small cafe, with a few friends and just enjoying.. Hoping that things get normal soon 😘
That's the perfect ending of 2019 with the most awaited content from PUL....it gives excitement to start 2020 with Journaling... The ideas r awesome and practical.. thank you dear sadia❤️❤️
I’ve just found you. You have no idea how much you have changed my life in such a short time. I am going through a period of time when I have some major decisions to make. It’s been pretty overwhelming at times. You have helped me to slow down and give myself more peace and confidence. Thank you! You have a new fan and follower.
Pushpa Thiyagarajan Ussually I put anything between fun little stories I tell myself, music ideas, or note when I have a significant mood change and need to walk myself through it, good or bad. I don’t usually write in it everyday, but I have the habit of putting the date and for some reason the time.
I would suggest journaling. Just have a journal where you write down your thoughts when you need it. I generally use a lined journal and just write my feelings out when I need to.
Allison Ringold I have a journal , bullet journal and a brain dump just because with journaling I like to write my thoughts , feelings and how my day was but with a brain dump it's just random stuff which , most of the time , doesn't make sense
This was a huge help! I’m a big perfectionist (I made a “rough draft” of my journal in another’s journal before starting) I’m creative, but felt overwhelmed by all the other super cute tutorials and this is my first time. I needed something simple. This was a huge help! Thank you for sharing!
I've watched most of your videos and I love the fact that you keep it simple, mention it often that it's okay if you miss something or don't take it to hard, because sometimes it's scary to focus on such a healthy lifestyle.

HABIT TRACKER: Use it as a tool to build awareness, not to judge yourself or hate yourself for not doing more. OMG, THANK YOU. Just that simple sentence helps a lot!
I was your 1000 like!
Exactly what I was thinking 🙌🏼✨
I loved that line too
Yaa it's made me clear vision about how to journal
Wanna hear something weird? I had my first comment where I had 1.7k likes yesterday. It got deleted because I made a "controversial" edit. I thought, "welp, I'll never get that many likes again.". HOURS LATER, I got a notification for this comment. It has the EXACT SAME amount of likes. AH, WTF??! 😲 Thanks guys!
"track the past, order the present, design the future."
it's just a simple sentence but it helped understand what journaling really is
That is not what journaling is to me. I do it because it's fun.
Thats the over fun!! You get to rule yet with fun.
Fancy
💗
I've recently become interested in starting a bullet journal, and I've watched a few starter videos. Yours has so far been the clearest and most instructive of them. I am not very artistic or creative, so your minimal approach really suits me well. Your video is exactly what I was looking for, so thank you!
So do i. I want to try my first bullet journal but i'm very confuse with the art. I can't do lettering or paint. Of course it need many tools that i've to buy. Glad to see that bullet journal is not that complicated.
Hi :) When I started i was also overwhelmed by all those fancy styles. What I did was just search in Instagram and Pinterest for monimalistic bulletjournaling. You will find great spreads there that are just functional. Also the official website, bulletjournal.com , has the easiest spreads. Example: A monthly overview is just all the dates written down as a list. Nothing more. They also have a youtube channel, so maybe check that out!
Her approach is quite artistic
I will never fit all that info in the tiny space she allots. I can’t write like a typewriter-and I have nice handwriting lol
Ah well I ll keep on with my dumps and trying to make lists from them and trying to schedule them. Life is way more messy than this gorgeous journal in the vid. I love every one of my messes tho. Ages 15 to 3, all homeschooled.
Same here!
I agree. Short and to the point.
Who wants more bujo content from Pick Up Limes?
Your voice and approach are so calming, I feel like I could do open heart surgery if you made a tutorial lol
Yankee Belle 😂👍
🤣
@@learningalllifelong totally agree 😊😊
When I listen to her voice I feel exactly like a snake getting Bewitched by the vibrations of a flute! haha! She's just gorgeous!
Yankee Belle hahaha I understand what you mean. She is very calming. It's a beautiful video. 😍🙆♀️❤️
i’m literally crying at 3am in front of my 2 overdue reports while watching productivity videos
edit: it’s been a year since i’ve commented this and i come back often to see these replies when i need to. humans can be really nice sometimes :) thank you
Don't panic and don't feel burdened. Things happen you need to accept it the way it has become. Calm down and take deep breaths, have faith in yourself. Just start doing what's left without sabotaging yourself in anyway. Meditate and the world will change !!
Here to help if you need. Smile 😄
You and I are masochists. We happily postpone and send to the backburner like a pro. And then, when the 100% obvious, foreseeable and avoidable sh*t hits the fan, we freak out. Oh really, brain?
i feel you
And that's why being done with school was the best thing that could have happened to me.
we are kin
This video has literally changed my life. I have struggled for years to find a planning/journaling system that helped me manage my ADHD mind and this was exactly what I needed.
It’s been fun an engaging to do, so I actually keep up with it! And it is an almost perfectly comprehensive system for everything I need.
Thank you so much for this!
Check out Ryder Carroll here on youtube. His original bullet journal videos are very helpful, I go back to them a lot.
I'm new to journaling and I chose to try it because I also need help with my ADHD mind. I am hoping I can stick with it.
I have ADHD and always wanted to bullet journal but it became so overwhelming. The way you laid out the key and yearly calendar (that’s as far as i am in the video lol) was so perfect for how my brain works! I can’t wait to try, thank you. ❤️
Ryder Carroll invented this system to work with his ADHD brain! I highly recommend watching his video and the book is great too. The beauty is you can make it work for you. If you get bored with it, change it up. Forget to do it for a while? Flip the page and start again. Get curious about why a task was not completed. Did it need to be broken down into a smaller task? Is it not important or relevant anymore? Good luck!
Looking at TH-cam you'd think bullet journals were art projects, not organization tools
100% relate to this! I've dreamed of being the type of person that could bullet journal and watching this video actually made me feel like it was possible...I ordered one the day I watched this and now I am back to set up my journal! ADHD impulse by or healthy life decision? I guess we will see!! I am excited to positive changes! lol
@@michaelamunsee8297 how is it going? 💕
Given the chaos, interruptions from tech, toxic / traumatic news images.....I think this bullet journal approach is a gift from the ADD people to the so-called "normals" i.e the rest of us. For someone with obsessive traits like me its the absolute necessity to prioritize is one of the aspects that help the most.....thank you and also the replies below were great too G
Hello Miss Limes
I’m a dude with a beard and a construction job. I watched the whole video. This is not my thing but wow. I’m so happy for you. Your nitch here on TH-cam is very simple and cute. Your having fun. Very cool.
We are all rooting for you!
Kind of wish I had a cool TH-cam channel like your. It’s so relaxing
Best encouragement if there ever was one :)
A pretty heartwarming ode sir :)
Her name is Sadia, but Miss Limes is cute too hahaaa
with a beard. Lol why was that necessary? (no hate)
It grows by itself..I don’t know actually.
To keep me warm? I’m not sure
“Toxic complaining culture.” You are so right. Being thankful is healthy for the soul
Lol, I think the media and internet is largely responsible for that and it's getting out of control. For example, every news channel or social media story (or commenter) tells you what you should be mad about everyday. That's where the gratitude journal comes in, I guess.
@@skywalker6648 very true. It's the main reason why I take weeks or months off social media at a time. It's also why I love this channel so much- no matter what's going on around me, I can also count on Sadia to calm me down with her peaceful videos, and remind that there's still so much goodness to be thankful for. I am very grateful to be living in an age where we can know people like Sadia and their ideas so easily.❤️
th-cam.com/video/du3B7Vac3BU/w-d-xo.html
I felt so sorry when I heard she was planning 2020 (I'm commenting from January 2023). Hope everything went as well as possible in 2020 for you! Loved the video ❤️
I thought the same thing. :(
But don't be! Sadia is a very resilient person I'm sure she maneged to do something productive during 2020 (beside all the bad part, this "slow down" moment was helpful for some of us🙏)
Appreciated
Me too
Love this! Can we get a 2021 update to see how your bullet journal system has evolved over the year? Maybe a flip through too! 👍🏻
Excellent work
I feel like if I did this, everything would just be arrows pointing right
Edit: finally bought a bullet journal off ebay, lets see how it goes lol
😂😂
not gonna lie - been bullet journaling 3 years now and I've had a lotttt of arrows at times but it still ends up getting done with end of month reviews and all. Eventually it also helped to have no more than 3-5 todos for the day :)
@Lb96 😆 I'm right there with ya!
Maybe the things you write aren't relevant to you anymore or you put too much on your plate, or maybe you're a little lazy.. if you do try it don't let those arrows stop you cuz even when you migrate a lot of tasks you still do some of them, doing some is indeed better than not doing any at all, isn't it??

@@husnaghniya Giving your free time to help other people is such a huge action. You should feel happy of yourself! Thank you very much!
I use a line with 24 segment one segment for each hour of a day for each day , my mostly tasks are repetitive daily as a student, i have colour coded all my basic things like study,sleep,free time etc.. i fill in the each segment according to the taks i did, it helps me keep track of the whole day and analyse how productive i was
An idea for the BRAIN DUMP page: for the first month, do not limit yourself with pre-determined sections; instead have a blank page and write down every thought, when the month is over analyze what your common topics are so you can better determine your sections moving forward
Love love love this. My commitment issues are so deep I can't even start a journal because what if I need more pages! I'm trying to work with my own issues by using a ring bound frankenplanner so I can move things and add stuff.
Fabulous

All I wanted in life was a PUL bullet journal video, and now my 2019 is complete 😍

something you do that I really like is you don't just design it. You show us how you used it and I really appreciated that, its so hard for me to visualize what this will be like when I'm working through it, and just seeing the really used examples is SO useful ty
Thank you , this bullet journaling guide was really helpful. Even though I am watching this two years later, it is still helpful . Thanks again
I love this! Some of the other bullet journals feel impossible but this seems like it is meant to help you
Danielle Saevig yes I feel the same
It just depends on what works for you, you have to mess up to find your way.
I so agree! I'm going to order a bullet journal for this coming year. I bailed on my journal for 2019, but I didn't bail because it was too much.
Danielle Saevig I know what you mean. This one seams easier and she explains it so well. Such a great video ❤️👍
Yeah I agree with that..
This will be my first journaling attempt and you've really saved the day with this. I was too scared to do any water colouring to make it pretty etc but this is PERFECT. just a black pen and a ruler and also the best headings!! Seriously saved the day 🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️
Yes. I started mine a bit artsy but generally very minimalistic.
I think artsy journals are more for creative people who prefer a diary rather than a more professional place for your tasks and organisation.
Both are good for different kinds of people.
I am starting Bujo too. I was quite anxious and scared of doing those fancy stuff. But this one is perfect for me.
THE BEST B.j 'how to' video I've seen! I went through several others before finding this one, and stopped after 2-3 minutes of them doodling their names on the front cover. In this one, she goes step-by-step, moves quickly but efficiently through the process and keeps it simple. I'm a business-owner-entrepreneur-mom, who doesn't have time for all the cutesy art work that so many others were doing and almost gave up on the process but this was a beautiful and aesthetically pleasing instructional. Thank you so much! I'm ready to get 2022 on!
🤭
I still remember very well: back to January, this video appeared in my recommended videos. I decided to watch it and by that time I had no idea what a bullet journal was. Now I can't live without my own
2020 will be the best year ever!!!! it will bring you an avalanche of abundance, success and joy!!!! many and many blessings to you all 💕
Wish you the same darling!! 😘🥰 Feels good to see people encouraging everyone with positive words. ☺️

Heyy!! Thank you, this really helped
OMG. Did you just make a bullet journal of a bullet journal?! HAHA! Thanks!
As someone who struggles to stick to things consistently, I have been bullet journaling for 2 years and now into the third. Love this video so much, it is the one that got me started :)
This is exactly how I need my bullet journal to be. I need my daily tasks as well and I also like having sections to do brain dumps and check-ins since like you, I also am recovering from my condition and check-ins will help me see my progress in another light (e.g., from not being able to walk to now walking with a quad cane). This is terrific!
I tried bullet journaling at the beginning of last year, and quickly got frustrated by it not looking as beautiful and perfectly laid-out as most of the examples I could find online - I'm not much of an artist, and seeing all of those 'perfect' journals with gorgeous illustrations and not a single drop of ink out of place was frankly depressing and I quickly lost my motivation to try to keep up with the journal.
But this, like most of your videos, really cuts the concept down to easier, more achievable steps and has wonderful focus on not trying to make it 'perfect'. After watching, I went and dug out my old bullet journal, removed the few pages I filled out from last year, and followed your ideas for the layout (personalizing by switching a few pages around and adding a few I feel will benefit my lifestyle more.)
Thank you so much for another lovely and inspirational video!
Aw thanks so much, Bondi, I hope you enjoy the process! Keep it easy, simple, remove anything that doesn't serve you. You can always add more to it later :)
The creator of the bullet journal has quite a minimalist approach. If there is a desire to be creative though how about just one monthly creative page (like doodles, sketch, drawn or printed art)? Perhaps that'd satisfy your creativity but make things less daunting? :)
@@StardustDNA Nope, been using my bullet journal consistently (with great success!) since the day I posted this comment, and am quite happy to get all my artistic fulfillment from my highly creative career, haha. So yeah, drawing in it isn't for me, but thank you so much for the suggestion! Maybe it'll help someone else scrolling through the comments one day. :D
out of hundreds of bullet journal videos, I was really waiting for Sadia's video on this and her smart tips and tricks. MY LIFE IS NOW COMPLETE. THANK YOU SO MUCH 😍♥️♥️
"2020 is coming up, create a goals or a vision page..." -- This did not age well. :) Amazing video btw, thanks for taking the time to do this.
That line hits different now 😂 I thought the same thing.
Ha yep I thought oh no it’s 2020 get that white out out!!
me watching this at 2022 want to say thank you so much for this. I got my interest to bujo because how artistic they are (and I love arts so much). But as a beginner, it's pretty overwhelming to see bullet journal videos which are so pretty, aesthetic, and full of creativities.. thinking that I might not make as good as them. That makes me cannot start at all! But this video saved me. It's so minimalistic with a very clear instructions and so simple!!! I immediately thinks "I can definitely do this much.." Thank you so much!!
And it's still so pretty because it's very organized♥️
When I just started bujo, I bought all those cute stickers and washi tapes that suits my aesthetic- thinking that a bujo should look aesthetic and pleasing in the eyes. Well, didn't manage to keep up doing all the pretty spreads for more than 5 weeks- I gave up. I felt so much pressure to maintain the aesthetic of my bujo, rather than to actually update my bujo with tasks.
As time goes by,
I realized that an effective bujo is all I need. You dont have to follow all the spreads that other youtubers shared but just take which one suits and works for you! 🌼 Now, my bujo is so simple- one highlighter and a black pen.
And I have never been happier.
@@nurfarahhanun7795 yes exactly you have to find your middle in all this. We shouldn't put pressure on ourselvs on how others do them, because it's really super personal ☺️ and we should tell ourselvs that we can always change our bujo however we want, because it's you that make it. That's how I made myself today make mine 😂👍🏻 if we do a mistake, just change the page - redo or just correct with white pen or something like that 🙈
Thanks for your words it motivated me even if it wasn't directed to me 😊🌸
One of the things I am most grateful for this year is having had discovered your channel, Sadia! You are a beautiful person, an inspiration, and someone I always look forward to seeing when I open TH-cam. Thank you so much for all your wonderful content, and have a blessed and happy 2020!!!

This was by far the most helpful set-up I’ve seen. Thank you! I feel like everything else was overwhelming. Your approach was easy to follow, made sense, and left room for customizing. I can’t thank you enough!
I think a lot of ppl don’t understand bullet journaling is anything you want it to be!!! From it being very very artistic to being very very simplistic!! It’s what ever works for you and only you.
You’re like the Bob Ross of bullet journaling 😍

So true 🤣
You forgot Nathaniel Drew
I love the idea of always listing our top three priority tasks for each day. Helps to keep focused on the important things.
I am overwhelmed just looking at this let alone sitting down to create one!
This is one of the most beneficial journaling I’ve ever seen, and this is the first time I don’t feel overwhelmed with how the structure is or the design
Money! That was the important page for me when I started Bullet Journaling. I write the dates down the side, then make a note when I spend money. At the bottom I write down things that I'm thinking of buying in the future or things I'm saving for like a vacation or dishwasher and the debt I'm working on paying off. This is how I figured out what bills I have every month and how much they are! ☺️ And I finally got a handle on spending and saving after years of struggle.
A genuine reason for journaling thank you ❤
I loveeee the fact that you really explain how things work for you and how you tailor it the way it's useful. Some youtubers stick to explaining the system the way Ryder Carroll made it in the beginning of their bullet journal videos, but they don't always work and then they stick to the artistic side of things, I think this is the reason why some people are scared to start bullet journaling - it can be quite daunting
I love your emphasis on mindfulness! Like how habit tracking is to bring awareness, not to shame ourselves
For several years now I have wanted and attempted to start a bullet journal. I’d buy a few supplies here and there, I’d sketch page ideas on notebook paper, but somehow, when it came time to start, I never felt my journal was good enough. I know that thought is just silly. I know my bullet journal/planner is only for me, but when I look at all those beautiful Pinterest worthy pages others have posted, I feel I’m just too far lacking in artistry and creativity to continue and I quit before I really ever even got started. Today, however, something changed. I watched your video about starting a minimalist journal and I really enjoyed it. It inspired me to start again and since I’m now divorced, have a child away at college and one who spends a week at at a time with his father, I have way too much free time. THANK YOU for giving me the inspiration and the confidence to try again. I am truly grateful! ❤️
I feel like you're the most sorted person I ever saw
lostnfound 797 Ah! Yes! Sorted is also my word of the year. I love that!
Watching others set up their bullet journals always makes me feel in awe of their artistic skills but also a little intimidated. Yours is so simple and achievable (yet also beautiful!) that I finally feel inspired to start my own.
This is the best bullet journaling video I've watched. My quest to search more ended here.
I love the simplicity of this. I'm not artsy at all and some of these bullet journals are so intimidating! Beautiful, but intimidating, lol.
I am planning on starting a bujo the next year, just trying to get my life together. So THIS video was a life saver... I am not exactly an artist, so, yeah this is simple and looks amazingly effective. Thanks, Sadia.
I wish you a peaceful and joyful New Year, Sadia and whoever reads this....
Jahnavi Bojja i wish the same for you Jahnavi :-)
I've been keeping a bullet journal for three years. I started out very fawncy 🏯 but now it is completely minimal🏠. I do a month at a glance, a tiny list of goals for the month, and my monthly meditation log which I also have another huge journal for as it covers many years. Then I do my week at a glance. That's it. Since it is a new year I will probably do a year at a glance and I might include Level 10 goals and chart as that always wakes me up! For years I used some sort of daytimer and it was my most essential tool as a therapist. But now I'm working less and the flexibility of this system really suits me. Thanks for sharing yours - a peek into your process is fun.
Oh thanks for you insight.
This was very helpful! I'm just recently looking into starting a bullet journal and your video was great! You are thorough but also go slow enough to see what you are showing us. Thanks!
I have watched several videos about starting a bullet journal, and yours is the first to show the details of setting up each page. Thank you... well done!
Thank you for this video! It is a crazy coincidence but I remember you had mentioned this in one of your videos. And yesterday I was watching some of your videos back to back to find it. I couldn't find it and today you have created a video dedicated for a Bullet Journal! I loved the way you have explained it, and I am excited to get started on my productive journey :)
I've always admired other's bullet journals but the way you explained your setup really clicked with me and I think I'll give it a try. 2019 wasn't the best year for me but I really feel motivated for 2020 and this came at the perfect time so thank you!
I love this, starting my first Bullet Journal and I was getting overwhelmed with how to start and what to do, but you really demonstrate and easy way to start, thank you!
I love how you organize the weekly & daily week at a glance! I’ve been trying to bullet journal while scheduling when I could accomplish tasks, and this is a perfect way to do it. Thanks!
You're wonderful. You've taken a process that the most well-intentioned of us have complicated and therefore given up on, and you've simplified it in a manner that is clear and accessible to many.

I started journaling last year and to be precise it literally changed my life. Like whenever I'm stressed out I do journaling trust me it helped me a lot.😇
So this year give it a try and start a journal and you'll see the difference ✌
Love yourself
I did my first bullet this year and have been loving the fact how productive I have been. This was super easy and functional.
You might have just changed my life. Just made my Journal from June 2021. Millions and millions of thanks. May god fulfill all your wishes. More and more happiness and power to you. Cheers
✌✌
Honestly, your approach gives me a WHY because I always have a WANT intent that I give up easily, so this is much useful and beautiful and minimal! So thank you Sadia, everything u said resonate so much with me!
I have read the quote “simplicity is the key to brilliance” but you continuously prove it ♥️
I saw several videos on journaling. Yours is the most suited and apt for a beginner. Thank you for being so clear and explaining everything carefully.
Finally joining the bullet journal train. It's been quite overwhelming with all the ideas out there, but your video was so helpful. The recommendations are simple yet impactful. It has just what I need. I also really appreciate the reminder that this is to build awareness, not to judge ourselves. I feel at ease now to get into my journaling. Thank you for putting this together!
You actually described my situation about having so many notes every where, and when I need them I can’t find anything 😂😂
I love your voice tone. It's so calming. When I listen to you i feel like i am meditating ♡
Best video I've seen so far about bullet journaling! The way you explain it and actively show the step-by-step is so easy to follow and draw inspiration from. Thank you!!
The best Bujo setup I've found so far! I've been playing with different spreads and was having trouble getting it "right" in a way that I'd use it. I really like this one and have set up my 2022 journal similarly. Thanks for such a detailed overview! I especially love the focus on this being a tool, and not allowing it to become a pressure or judgment point.
I've been bullet journaling for one and half years and I still got great ideas from this. I love the minimal and functional aspect while still looking really nice. Thank you Sadia!
I love how you u accessorize plants in your every video.
The only bullet journal setup one needs. Still epitome. Visiting typically at as the year end is nearing ❤
I started using this method the past few weeks and it has helped so much! I was like you, notes everywhere and very unorganized. This has been helping me stay productive and keep track of everything really well. I love it!
I just love listening to you. You can transmit so much peace, it’s just incredible ⭐️
I love this so much because I feel like my abstract desire to "journal" has been without a guide. There are definitely some spreads and items in here I can take to my daily practices!
I appreciate how you followed up at the end with everything you went over. Lot of info even if video was short so follow up helped bring everything back .
Ur voice itself is so smooth & soothing. The talking feels like hearing a song . The honest thoughts about urself - that is giving a lesson.
I had been looking for yearly calendars; I had no idea this was even a option. So thank you for popping up on my feed. Although I looked at a few other bullet journal DIYs, I'm in love with the way you did yours and I literally copied down almost everything you did. Thank you for sharing this.
I've found the most success using a bullet journal without the actual bullet journal system. Because then I'll feel like I keep repeating the same tasks that needs to move over.
But the concept is great and I've been using it for on and off 2 years. Definitely helped track my progress when I wasn't working a 9-5 (it can sometimes feel defeating since there's no set schedules and validation from manager/coworkers/etc.) Also, it's wonderful to look back on the different stages of life!
Watching and listening to you feels like I am in a seminar abt journaling, and it feels great. Thank you for this. This inspires me to do better in my journals.
Half of me thinks this would take up too much of my time but then the other half of me wonders if this is what I need in my life
I feel the same.
if need be, start off small, just like a daily to-do list in a separate book. that's what i do. try to *slowly* add things later if need be.
@Madison Winters Did it Work??
That's literally what I'm thinking. I know this is gonna take so much time out of my day but what if it's what I need?
th-cam.com/video/du3B7Vac3BU/w-d-xo.html
I've had a bullet journal over two years now and I had episodes where I kept it very minimal, but I always come back to expressing myself creatively with it, so it got more "artsy". I have watched a ton of bujo videos here on youtube, quite a few minimal ones, too. But in your video you managed to present something that's at least new to me. I really loved the set-up and will definitely give it a shot and switch it up a little to my "artsy" likings.
You have a very neat handwriting and I'm impressed by how clean it looks when you write out so many numbers!
I really like your weekly layout. I've been trying to figure out how to incorporate an hourly agenda, since that's what has been keeping me somewhat organized during this quarantine (and I realized I should keep a journal rather than my stack of dozens of sheets of printer paper w/notes). Your way works great, still gives plenty of room for to-do tracking/notes, and the agenda. And your "minimal" is already much more than I had started off doing. 2020 hasn't gone the way any of us anticipated or wanted it to, but I'm trying to reclaim some control. Thanks!.
Excellent video! My wife and I are just getting started and we REALLY like how simple your spreads are for the year and month at a glance.
It’s my first time watching Pick Up Limes. I am overwhelmed by watching you set up your journal, whew!
I think I might try and turn my Franklin Planner into a planner and journal; I might try to incorporate some of the items you mentioned; Habit Tracker, Gratitude List, etc.
Thank you for encouraging me to journal, which I have not done in decades, with your supportive video!❤
This video really inspired me to give bullet journaling a try. I really resonated with your description of feeling scatterbrained and having notes on random pieces of paper and digital notes all over the place. I have tried a journal for the last few years but there hasn't been much of a system and it just became a rolling to-do list scattered with random thoughts. I went through and setup a bullet journal for the month of may and it sounds crazy but I already notice a huge difference. Also I didn't understand the brain dump at first and thought it probably wasn't for me but now I'm wondering how I even functioned without putting all these random thoughts onto paper. Almost knowing that i have a place to put these thoughts has brought a lot of them bubbling to the surface.Thank you so so much for sharing!
I feel like I just went to therapy watching this video...
Hearing you organize and evaluate your life so simply and broadly made me see my life in such a way, and I feel like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders!

When you need a whole separate journal for brain dump 😶
Kimberly Richardson actually I have a doubt... what kind of things do u put in brain dump.. any ideas because I have no idea..
Pushpa Thiyagarajan Ussually I put anything between fun little stories I tell myself, music ideas, or note when I have a significant mood change and need to walk myself through it, good or bad. I don’t usually write in it everyday, but I have the habit of putting the date and for some reason the time.
I would suggest journaling. Just have a journal where you write down your thoughts when you need it. I generally use a lined journal and just write my feelings out when I need to.
I actually have a bullet journal and a brain dump journal..... I just write random things ,thoughts, quotes , songs , etc
Allison Ringold I have a journal , bullet journal and a brain dump just because with journaling I like to write my thoughts , feelings and how my day was but with a brain dump it's just random stuff which , most of the time , doesn't make sense
I just started journaling and others tutorial is too overwhelming to me, glad to found this video!! very helpful and calming
This was a huge help! I’m a big perfectionist (I made a “rough draft” of my journal in another’s journal before starting) I’m creative, but felt overwhelmed by all the other super cute tutorials and this is my first time. I needed something simple. This was a huge help! Thank you for sharing!
I've watched most of your videos and I love the fact that you keep it simple, mention it often that it's okay if you miss something or don't take it to hard, because sometimes it's scary to focus on such a healthy lifestyle.
