Don't read this book. It's the original 2485 words Bullet Journal system soaked in more than 60000 words of snake oil.

I have used the recommendations in my notes since 2014, so I remember the original single page explanation. If you want to learn it in 3 minutes continue reading.

The only difference with the current "method" is using dots [ · ] instead of boxes for the tasks and dashes [ - ] instead of dots for the notes. And that the content changed from CC-BY-NC-SA to full copyright, fancy that.

Some useful things mentioned on the book that weren't mentioned in 2014 but that appeared in the community are:

- Yearly Journal migration. Nothing special, just change your journal at least once a year. Keep the previous one
- Threading. When two pages are related not just note them in the index but add the page number of the previous block to the page number on the left spread and when you add a next block go back to this spread and add the new block page number on the right side.
- Note linking: you can use page references in notes.
- Interjournal linking: Journal name + number. Examples: 2022p45, 2021Q3p6, whatever you name your journals.
- Prefer Leuchtturm1917 notebooks as they already have page numbers and an index on top of being of excellent quality.

And that's it. The rest of the book and the current website are a hodgepodge of new-ageisms and pseudoscience around basic practices of meditation, reflection and gratitude that try to grab you commercially.

If you want to complement your writing by adding meditation, reflection, prioritization and gratitude to your daily routines there are better books than this one.
