TL;DR: It's helped me a lot. Start simple and adapt it to your needs as you go. Always have it open in a high traffic/good view area. Feel free to ask me any questions.

BLOCK OF TEXT:

I was skeptical, but so far I am going 2 months strong. I used this notebook. I like it cuz it's graph paper and it is smaller than a normal notebook.

My Setup:

The worst part is the set up. Numbering the pages was kind of brutal, but once that's over, it's pretty simple. At least for me... I shy away from all the artsy stuff I've seen online. I find that overwhelming, so I stick more closely to the original idea of it. As far as the planner side of it, I started out with just the Future Log, Monthly, and Daily approach. After the first week or so, I replaced the "dailies" with a "weekly" view that works for me. The best part of this is that it is so flexible that you can change it to serve your needs as you go.

How I don't forget about it:

  • I always carry it with me wherever I go. I was already carrying a bright orange backpack with all my "backups" anyway, so I just put it in there.
  • The first thing I do when I get home or get to work is I open it up to "today" and place it on my desk so it is constantly in my view.

    How it helps me:

  • Work: I write down what I want to get done that day and since it is always in view it helps me come back when I lose focus/get sidetracked. I also got rid of all other notebooks/post its, so every time I have to write something down, I have to use it/look at it. I have a page dedicated to work notes, but all tasks go in my "Daily/Today"
  • If there's something that I need to do before I leave home/work, or if there's something I need to bring with me that's unusual, I write it in and then I put my keys (and the object) under it so I have to look at it and remember.
  • Drive Home to/from Work: If I need to pick something on the way, I add a task to write the location/object on the back of my hand... o.o I wish I were kidding, but since I can't have the notebook open while I drive this is the only thing that works for me.
  • Anytime I decide (or magically remember) that something needs to be done or an event gets scheduled, I add a task for it. Since I got rid of all other notebooks, there's only one place to go! At this time I decide if it needs to be done today, this week, this month, or at some point in my lifetime (Future Log) and get added to the appropriate TODO list.
  • It helps me remember/plan better for what is happening the next week when I take 5 min on Sunday to copy down events from the Monthly to the new Weekly. My weekly template consist of making 7 lines across two pages to make 10 boxes. I then add titles ("Mon 5"-"Sun 11", "Chores", "Buy", "TODO") and that's it. Anything that didn't get done in my last weekly gets re-evaluated and transferred (see above). Sometimes I decide it is not relevant/worth my time anymore so I just scratch it out.
  • This might just be me, but I love the feeling of checking the box once a task is complete. As stupid as it sounds, it provides small motivation to do something.

    Tips:

  • Accept that it won't be perfect. You will make mistakes. That's ok. It doesn't have to be pretty. It has to be functional. If it bothers you that much, I recommend getting correction pens.
  • Don't add everything all in at once. That's overwhelming. Just write down the main task you want to get done. Once you accomplish it, add another if you feel like it. You already did what you had to do :)
  • Everything that doesn't need to get done today, can be added to a weekly or monthly TODO list so you still remember you have to do it, but it is not pressing/important. When I find I did everything I needed to get done today, I look at that other TODO list and pick one or two I want to tackle to feel extra productive.

    Other stuff I added:

  • I got tabs for the pages I used the most "Monthly" "Today" "Work Notes." The index is great to find random lists/notes/doodles, but the tabs save me a lot of time every day.
  • I also got these pen holder things to attach a pen to it. They look so out of place that it reminds me I should put the pen back in it.

    Misc/Disclaimer

    I think it is obvious that I am currently medicated, but I just wanted to throw in that I started using it before that. With medication, it has definitely brought my productivity to levels I didn't even know existed; but even without medication, it did help me do the bare minimum I needed to do.

    Anyway, if anyone has any questions or would like pictures of what my bullet journal looks like, feel free to PM me.

A couple I can recommend and stay away from.

Pen loop I was going to use Leuchtturm ones but found these work great for securing the pencil to a Smart Cover. I’ve been running this setup for a while and the pen stays in place. However, when folding the cover all the way around to create flat surface, the pen loop makes the iPad wobble due to the square. So not good for writing or drawing flat, unless you detach the cover (what I do when writing flat)

Pencil sling sleeve is what I will be replacing the above pen holder with eventually.

Pencil sleeve, while I used this for a while and it was okay. I found it to bulky and cumbersome. I wouldn’t recommend this in any way. I eventually cut it in pieces to have a pencil cap holder and a rubber grip for finger fatigue. This made the sleeve parts slide around like crazy so I eventually threw it away.
^Through all my uses with the Apple Pencil I haven’t lost my cap or thought I was going to so I believe the cap holders are not needed.

As far as apps go:

Note taking: Notability (tried 5 others to include goodnotes, one note, note shelf, etc.; and none of them either wrote as consistently or functioned as well as notability)

Drawing: Medibang Paint (most people would recommend Procreate but for just straight drawing or finishing artwork Medibang is way better)

Sketching/painting: Procreate (for simply sketching out or idea or painting Procreate is a clear winner)

Photo finishing: Affinity Photo (haven’t used much and still learning to use it, but the amount of features and effectiveness clearly stand out here)

This case just arrived yesterday and so far it’s decent. The clear back shows off the iPad nicely. Downsides are that the cover doesn’t stay open with the magnets and the button covers feel pretty fragile. I also added a generic stylus holder to keep the pencil secure.
