My friend's 'bullet journal' is just a list of chores on a napkin
She showed me her 'system' yesterday, which was literally three things scribbled on a diner napkin from The Griddle Cafe, and called it bullet journaling. I tried to explain it's about the method of rapid logging and future planning, not just writing stuff down anywhere. How do you gently correct someone who thinks any to-do list counts?

Honestly it's more about the system than the notebook. My sister did the same thing and I just sent her the official bullet journal website, it clicked for her after that. Maybe it's just me but sometimes people need to see the method spelled out.

Yeah but the system can feel super rigid to some people lol. My friend tried following the official site and got stressed about doing it "right." She had way more fun once she just used a regular notebook and made her own symbols. Sometimes the method needs to bend to fit the person, not the other way around.
