I once found an audio book at the library, titled something like: No procrastination in 30 days. After renewing it twice, I took it back to the library. I never got around to listening to it!
you all prolly dont give a shit but does anybody know of a way to get back into an Instagram account..? I was stupid lost the password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me
Stephanie, you did a wonderful job teaching this method. I have my first dashboard planner (I bought it on clearance for the discs) and have decided to try it for a month next month. I'm going to have to try this method. I'm working on a brain dump to do list now, and it's keeping me productive. I've gotten more done in the last week than in the previous month. I can only see this method making the results even better. I'm going to rewatch now. Take care.
This has been my most favorite, productive, creative, informative, while being equally beautiful videos yet!!! I am very much a list maker, procrastinator and often get too involved in the creative sticker part of planning to get anything done. This option, ideas and style is my perfect planning peace! THANK YOU!!!! I never would have thought of this method-combo.
I have been using the Allistair method for close to a couple of years now. I cannot imagine using a different approach. No re-writing during the week, fresh start each week, and you have a track record of when things were done. I keep my days to the right of the task list, but the principle is the same.
I'm using a variety of this. I do not pre-schedule days for my tasks. I sit down on Sundays and make a list of tasks I want to do the next week. Most of them are simply on the task list, tasks that need doing on a specific day go into my weekly calendar instead (such as grocery shopping which I tend to do on the same days every week). The tasks on the task list get marked when I do them as you've shown on the second example. I mark ongoing tasks with several bullets, one for each day on which I do something about them. (I'm a writer and for some sort of story, I can't break it down to something specific like a chapter, so I mark every day I work on such a story.)
Well how brilliant is this? I have always kept a running to do list on the left hand side of my dashboard. But I like the symbols here. My biggest complaint was that there was not enough room for my list at times on the left hand side. I think converting to this would help greatly. Especially for tracking my Zone cleaning. And dotted grids are my preference in general.
Thank you for sharing that method, I cluster my dashboard side with stickers that have boxes to list my needs or goals that week. And room to add stuff, but this might be a really good way to track what I get done in any given week while designing digitals, videos and Etsy listings. Thank you again for sharing. The wait wasn't a let down at at.
I've been thinking about having a weekly running list. This method looks promising. Do you have any ideas about incorporating this into a weekly vertical spread?
Actually, I am currently trying to figure out how to incorporate into a horizontal for next month. Maybe my solution will transport to a vertical?!? Stay tuned
Where does this idea of rewriting tasks every day come from? It’s not from Ryder Carrol nor is it part of the original Bujo method. You migrate at the end of the month.
Most preprinted planners are set up in a weekly or daily format, which isn't always the best for keeping a running to do list. I think many bullet journalers came from a paper planner background and have set up spreads in similar to a planner, adding tasks on the specific days that they think they will be done. Of course this doesn't always work out, hence migrating tasks to the following day(s). So rewriting tasks can be an issue for many paper planners and I suspect bullet journalers with spreads set up in like fashion.
@@squairdplans Part of why I turned to bujo was to get away from the standard preprinted planners. I used many iterations of them over the decades and none ever worked quite right. To me, rewriting to move a task from one day to the next just because you didn’t do it that day seems like busy work. I just do the task the next day or whenever and mark it off. Even in the old planners I’d only rewrite at the end of the week with what needed to be brought forward but it was just mechanical doing. I like the bujo idea of rewriting being a time to reevaluate a task to see if it’s still something needing to be done. You’re not the first person I’ve seen talking about having to rewrite every day. It wasn’t part of the original method so I’m curious as to how it came about. The best thing about bujo is we can all make it work however we need to. Keep up the good stuff.
Thanks for the feedback. I will see about improving the audio...was it too low or muffled? Any specific details would greatly appreciated as I have made attempts to improve it in the past.
This is a video I never knew I needed!! Googling Alastair Method ASAP. Thank you!

It is super efficient! I am still trying to incorporate it more into my planning routine. I really like the method.
I like this idea of planning. I like making lists and then listing the steps needed to complete certain tasks.
So much more efficient in a list format!
I love this idea. I need to try on my dashboard
It is the perfect layout to try this with! Happy planning!
I like it. I am considering this for myself.
Nice! I love to try new planning styles in case they are a better fit for me.
Thank you !
You're welcome!
