Learn to use the Alastair Method for your minimal Bullet Journal

In this week's video, we are setting a weekly for a short week. I've decided to use the Alastair Method to capture tasks and events as well as set up a notes section on the right. I've also kept a reflection section but left it open-ended for freestyle journaling vs set days.
For the Twist, this week I am using fountain pen ink and a monoline pen nib for headers. I'm also adding in a small section for a travel list and reminders.

[@markyourpages]

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching.

[@lorenagonzalez5106]

Hermoso !! Texas❤

[@markyourpages]

Thank you

[@jenniferlarsonjaylaplans]

Love the Alastair method! I like to set up the left page as the entire week with appointments, birthdays, things set to that day and the right side with all my tasks in the Alastair method. Another great video TY!

[@juliangelus]

Great video as always Mark, thank you :)

[@TheHeebieGeebie]

Could we see a filled out version? Even with black squares to hide details and private stuff of course

[@markyourpages]

Yes, I do more of those over on my Instagram with my #afterthepen posts. It gives you a better idea of how the spread is and helpful. But perhaps I could do a quick review on the previous week. Would that be helpful?

[@superbettynow]

@@markyourpages I would really appreciate an #afterthepen view on this particular spread, as I'm trying to work out the best way to plan and track my week, including tasks and events. Thank you!

[@draco-lily]

I always love seeing how quick and neat your weeklies are. Did the Monteverde ink ghost through those pages?

[@markyourpages]

Thanks for checking it out. It did ghost a little in a few spots, but mostly where I had ink or it was a bit heavier. But not terrible

[@head-scratcher]

Where did you get that ruler with the line stencils? You show it in the supplies section but don't have a link to purchase.

[@markyourpages]

Hi. That’s one from a part Archer and Olive subscription box. They never put it out past that one box, so unfortunately I can’t link to it. I wish they would put it out again

[@JOSETXO2112]

Very nicely done..but not minimal at all, is almost a scrapboook 🤔

[@markyourpages]

Thanks for checking it out. Aside from a stamp and 2 stickers for a list, it’s pretty minimal to me, but my style is a mix.
