DIY Bullet Journal & Why I’m using a binder system

  • I used to Bullet journal using a bounded notebook, but it wasn't helping me reach my goals or be productive. Since I have anxiety and struggle with negative thoughts and perfectionism, I realized that I need to change how I think and work. I have many goals I want to achieve and it all starts with a new way of journaling. So, today I'll show you how to make a simple DIY Bullet Journal, an elevated DIY Binder. And give you a little peek into my shop launch and new enamel pins!
    Come join me on this beautiful journey of finding inner peace and being brave.

    Wow, this inspires me to use a binder style too!
    I have anxiety and a slight perfectionist problem when it comes to my journals. So bad that I'd rather not do it or I stress too much making my journal spreads.
    Thanks for sharing this! And I'm so glad to see a new video upload and your new shop launch!

    • @christinemylinh
      @christinemylinh  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Exactly!!! I would put so much thought and effort into making a spread that I wouldn't have the energy to use it. Learning about where to put your energy has been something I'm working on. I'm so glad this helped and I'm so glad you're here!

    I never thought of using a binder system for a journal. This makes sense because I am the type that gets worried if something isn’t right and that makes me not want to start. I think I might just give this style a try. Your art is beautiful 💜💜

    Your Binder is beautiful and I’m sure you will find it so useful. I have been using a binder for a while - although not half as pretty as yours - and I found it so helpful
    I am also happy to hear you embracing your mistakes - how far you have come ❤. Remember what Bob Ross always said “We only make Happy Accidents”
