Bullet Journal #55

It’s that time of the month again (well, every two months—tbh).

Call out the obsessive compulsive behaviour—this little Moleskine Carnet Quadrille will be Volume 55.

(Yes, I really have 54 identical notebooks!)

Same format. Same style. Same system.

I use a variation of the Bullet Journal, taught by Ryder Carroll. It’s a method I’ve developed over the years. One that’s full of TLAs, symbols and drawings.

Find a system that works for you. Make it personal. Rinse and repeat.

Inspire, be inspired!

The beauty of imperfection

In many ways, imperfect can also be perfect.

Take this EGSP Wooden Block™ (this one just happens to be my favourite).

Check out the cross section.

The patterns in the wood.

The contrast between each year band.

The ever-so-faint burn mark from our laser-cutting process.

The fine wood dust trapped in the belly of the bee.

No computer-generated model or 3D printer could have produced this.

Yup, this little Scholar Bee makes me very happy. :-)

And boy it smells well—you can’t avoid the fresh smell of sanded maple.

12 pieces of litter

I live in a conversation area—and have a general rule when out walking.

If I see litter and there’s a bin nearby—I’ll do my bit.

If there’s no bin—then I’ll collect next time I pass.

Today was the first Monday I’ve spent at home for 9 months. (Yes, I was amazed too!) And so I decided to take an early morning stroll. Whilst observing young rabbits at play, a juvenile heron and heavily pregnant mallards, I also did my bit by consciously collecting 12 pieces of litter.

Not only was I protecting the area, but it also gave me 12 reasons to feel special.

Leading by example—sometimes, it’s the simple things.
