Publisher's Summary
The New York Times best seller.
Transform your life using the Bullet Journal Method, the revolutionary organisational system and worldwide phenomenon.
In his long-awaited first book, Ryder Carroll, the creator of the enormously popular Bullet Journal organisational system, explains how to use his method to:
- Track the past: using nothing more than a pen and paper, create a clear, comprehensive and organised record of your thoughts and goals.
- Order the present: find daily calm by prioritising and minimising your workload and tackling your to-do list in a more mindful and productive way.
- Design the future: establish and appraise your short-term and long-term goals, plan more complex projects simply and effectively and live your life with meaning and purpose.
Like many of us, Ryder Carroll tried everything to get organised - countless apps, systems, planners, you name it. Nothing really worked. Then he invented his own simple system that required only pen and paper, which he found both effective and calming. He shared his method with a few friends, and before long he had a worldwide viral movement. Hundreds of thousands of Bullet Journal fans now spread the word and read Ryder's blog and newsletter.
The system combines elements of a wish list, a to-do list, and a diary. It makes it easy to get thoughts out of your head (an unreliable witness) and onto paper, to see them clearly and decide what to do about them. It helps you identify what matters and set goals accordingly. By breaking long-term goals into small actionable steps, users map out an approachable path towards continual improvement, allowing them to stay focused despite the crush of incoming demands.
But this is much more than a time management book. It's also a manifesto for what Ryder calls 'intentional living': making sure that your beliefs and actions align. Even if you already use a Bullet Journal®, this book gives you new exercises to become more calm and focused, new insights on how to prioritise well and a new awareness of the power of analogue tools in a digital world.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio on our Desktop Site.
Critic Reviews
"I stumbled across the idea of the bullet journal in a Facebook thread on productivity. A month in, and I am surprised by how well this system has kept me on task. I have retired my other organising apps. The physicality of my notebook stops me from getting distracted when I am planning my day. It is nice to have a single log of where and how I spend my time. And, crucially, I am much more productive. My email inbox no longer dictates my priorities for the day." (Lilah Raptopoulos, Financial Times)
"The Bullet Journal is a new system taking internet geeks and organising wizards by storm, after being created by Brooklyn-based designer Ryder Carroll, who spent 20 years developing the method so he could stay organised. Essentially, it’s a modern Filofax - a place to dump all your thoughts, organise yourself and also involve your creative side. We love a life hack, what’s not to love?" (Marie Claire)
"As well as the journal’s ability to organise and prioritise tasks, the popularity of pages dedicated to tracking aspects such as mood and gratitude has led experts to believe that bullet journals could be effective in combatting anxiety - as they make tasks easier to approach and deal with." (Independent)

More insightful than expected
I hesitated on this audiobook because bullet journaling is obviously visual, but I found the bonus PDF was great when I needed to refer to anything visual.
The book is surprisingly insightful, and the writer is easy to listen to. Very well structured and not too long.

Well worth the time.
Awesome that Ryder Carroll narrates his own story but kinda bland. Changed my journaling though.

Best book I’ve ever purchased.
I am at the stage of life where I need this the most, so for me it was so good to listen this book. I don’t usually do it, but I just listened to it all at once, because this is my cure. I’ve been experience chaos in my life and I realized it’s because I didn’t write. But writting in a meanigful and strategic way helps me to see more benefits to my life. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom and your gifts, Ryder Carrol.
