When you need to take notes for a meeting/class/sermon/etc., try this minimalist two column approach to keep the information organized and quickly accessible in your bullet journal. In this method, a 1:2 ratio has worked very well for me. In the left column, taking a third of the page width, I keep non-content related details. The type of event or title (such as class name) begins the column and serves as the page title. Perhaps the room name or number may be relevant for some events such as a new class.

I have to ask, what is different about this journal as opposed to another, say dingbats. Does this come with the circle trackers on drivethrurpg?
ReplyDeleteGood questions. I have not used dingbats so I had to look it up. Here are some details that may clarify:
Delete* The UJ LOG book is printed by Lulu.com (as are all the Universal Journal books)
* At nearly 500 pages, this book will last quite a while
* strong, sturdy cover but not as fancy as the lovely dingbat covers
* 118 gsm paper is not as thick as the high end dingbat journals but thicker than the low end dingbat books
Unfortunately, being a Lulu.com product, it doesn't include any extras (such as built in bookmarks or circle trackers). Also the pages are not already numbered.
Have I answered the question as you needed?
