This Weekly To-Do List Setup Is Low-Key Genius – Buzzfeed
It does annoy me when I see people on various Facebook groups saying that they can’t bullet journal because they’re not artistic enough. When I first started playing around with my paper-based system back in the early 2000’s it most certainly didn’t look pretty – in fact it wasn’t meant to as it’s a functional list. The same is true of Ryder Carroll’s Bullet Journal method. It should be usable, not pretty.
Saying that though, this example of a running weekly to-do list does look gorgeous while remaining functional at the same time.
