If you’re like me the beginning of a new year is like a clean slate. It’s a time to set new goals, get organized and try new things.
I always start the year with the best of intentions but staying on track is always been my number one challenge. This year I came across a new tool, something that fits in with my style but added a few extra bells and whistles to make it more efficient. It’s called the Bullet Journal.
The Bullet Journal is a way to use a notebook to track your activities, make plans and help you be more organized in your business.
I’ve always used a notebook to brainstorm, make to-do lists, take notes when talking to clients and generally keep track of what I’m doing. When I remembered I wrote the date on the page.
