i've been wanting a 5 year so bad. but i also don't want to waste a notebook and abandon it halfway through a year. so i'm taking your layout and adjusting it per one year. if i can make it through 2023 with consistency, then i can go ahead and set up a 5 year! absolutely LOVE your set up!
Good thinking! I'm much the same, so I'm hoping that the not-wanting-to-waste-a-notebook will help keep me motivated, haha 😝💜
Girl I am so happy I stumbled across your channel these past few months. Now I know exactly what to do with the notebook that’s been staring at me for months 👁👄👁
Haha 😂 happy to help! Glad we can get that notebook used 💪
What a great idea! I am on my fifth year of a 5-year journal, and I had never considered setting up my own before. I liked your suggestion of a 3-year journal, too. One thing that actually makes it work for me was to fill it in once a week as part of my weekly review (weekly reset). It takes between 5 and 10 minutes. Because I bullet journal, my dailies make it easy to trigger my memory. Then, I only add something during the week when I want to quote my kids or remember something specifically. It takes a lot of pressure off. I also allow myself to leave uneventful days blank to highlight the memories I want to see. The last five years have brought a lot of changes, and my whole family enjoys the "four years ago this week we..." Thanks for your thoughtful guidance on how to make bullet journals work well for your viewers.
Love the tips! I think making it part of the weekly review is an awesome idea 💪💜 so cool that you're on to your 5th year of one!
I love the idea of doing it as part of the weekly review, definitely stealing that idea! 😁
I created one of these last year. My issue with many of the preprinted ones was the sameness of each page. I knew I wouldn't stick to it. So I created my 4-year "chat journal" in a blackout journal. Each page is designed differently. Many funky layouts. I used different shapes, and colors. I painted some pages. Some pages have textured cut-out shapes for dimension. I am using metallic & neon pens to fill for different days. I am going to add a "then-now" page. Thanks for the idea!
I love the idea of making them all unique, that’d be so much fun! 😄💜
coming back to this video because I'll be setting up a 5 year journal for myself soon! instead of going from January to December though, it's gonna be starting on my 25th birthday (which is this September) and running through my 30th birthday.
Last year, after watching this video, I made a 5 year writing journal and it's SO GOOD to use! It's very simple with only black and blue pen. I don't write everyday, so there are lots of blank page, but hey, this is just the first year hehe
I've surprised myself with how I've been able to keep up with it honestly 😝 Can't say I've gotten into it every single day, but I've done a pretty good job of making sure to back-fill where I can 😄 Glad you've been enjoying yours! 🥳
I just got my journal and am starting to set it up now: I’m using your journaling promts for most days and then with a picture day every now and then as well as the three days of doodles page every now as well! I’m so excited!
I never usually comment on any videos, but you have inspired me to start a 5 year journal of my own. Your videos have helped me so much for my own yearly bullet journals! Your content is so underrated! I hope you can post an update for your journal once in a while so I can stay motivated to follow along :)
Glad you’re enjoying the content Erika! 😄 maybe I’ll make monthly check ins part of the month reset videos 💪
I listened this morning and am going to watch a few times tonight. I'm so excited for the 5 year set up ideas and the process to choose the page designs and counts! This video was one of my wishes to set up for me!
Also, just a note, I appreciate the teaching vibe and focus you bring to your videos. If you feel you've left teaching, I'm here to tell you that you've simply found a different way to teach. I love what and how you're sharing with us.
Thanks Angela, that’s really nice of you to say! I appreciate how I can bring my teaching background to video making for you guys 😄💜
great idea!
Great idea Jess, I think I might give this a try. Loving the daily videos :)
Glad you’re enjoying all the videos! 😄💜 it’s continuing to be a fun challenge for me, haha 💪
We totally need an update on this journal in January!
This is simply the best :)) Thank you for sharing it! You inspired me so much that I picked up a load of paper, made a book and turning into a 5 year journal :) thank you so much!
Thank you so much for this!
Most welcome! 😄💜
I’ve been thinking of getting a five year. I admire how much you went to set this up.
I haven't tried a 5-year journal but I'm definitely trying this template. I've been addicted to your channel since last month. Now my empty notebooks have been filled thanks to you.
Aww that's awesome! Glad you're finding inspiration here 😄💜
Ahh we get the 5 y journal video so soon! Yes! ❤❤❤
Haha didn’t want to keep people waiting too long 😝💜
I love your videos are so inspiring and easy to follow! Thank you for making the videos and I hope that you have a good day
Aww thank-you! I hope your day is going super well 💪💜
Such a great idea!
Glad you liked it! 💜😄
This is so smart!! Love it! I´ve been wondering how to make a 5 year journal and you just solved all my problems hahaha, thank you so much!
Your 5year bujo and my everyday bujo for next year are the same. Super excited for it.
Awesome! Twinning 💪💜
You are on fire lately! I've been loving all these recent uploads of yours and am getting very inspired for 2023!
Aww yay, that’s awesome! 😄💜 glad you’ve been enjoying them!
This is so beautiful. Unfortunately I have a bad track record with long-term journals. I might as well say that I intend to fill it in every day right after I ran my marathon 😅 But if I decide to set one up, I will definitely use your template ideas 😄
Haha 😂 I am hopeful for this one, as I too have a poor track record when it comes to daily stuff 😝
really liked this! thinking about setting one up myself
Aww that’s awesome! 😄💜 Glad you liked it!
Love this idea …. Thinking I will do this! 🤓
Oh awesome! It'd be cool to have a whole group of us doing them 🥳💜
This is the inspiration I needed! Finally going to put my “Back to the Future” lined notebook to use for this…seemed appropriate. 😉 Thank you!
Oh that is legit the perfect notebook for this kind of project! 😄💜
Jess, you are so fab! I’ve been watching all your videos, as I’m new to bujo’ing this year, and they’re all incredibly well done. I can tell you were a teacher 😊 Happy new year from London! 💜
Thanks Erika! 😄💜 glad you’ve been enjoying the videos 🥳 happy new year!
Coming back to watch this video while I wait for my journal to arrive and I feel like when Jess said "I don't wanna turn you off, but we're gonna have to do some maths" she was speaking directly to me lol
This would be great for 5 year plan goal setting and tracking. I’m heavily considering starting one for career goal setting.
Thanks for another wonderful video!
Most welcome! 😄💜 would be totally cool for goal setting 💪
You continually come up with some terrific ideas. Thank you.
Thanks also for the discount code, my Archer and Olive Black Friday purchase arrived today.
Thanks Suzi! And glad you could get yourself a discount 🥳
Loved this. I'm not ready to commit to a daily journaling habit but I think I'm going to use the amazing 366 prompts as a weekly journal prompt. Thanks!
Awesome! Hope you find them fun 😄💜
Jess! This is awesome! Intimidating, but awesome. I'm a sucker for color coding and I really like the idea of future me remembering past me and all my struggles and accomplishments. I think this is a project I can get into. The reward will be so great! And an excuse to use one of my extra journals even sooner😄
Haha yay! 😄💜 Glad you liked it! Colour coding is my jam too 👏
I just want to let you know that your ideas for all ur physical journals I try to incorporate into my digital journals on GoodNotes on my iPad. I really appreciate ur channel and the many ideas u have. Keep up great work❤️❤️🎉
Aww that’s awesome to hear! Glad you can take the ideas and transform them into something that works for your system 🥳💜
I love this idea, which means I'm adding yet another journal to next year's pile. I'm think I'm going to fill mine in on my weekly reset, since otherwise I'd be filling it in the morning after the day anyway -- no way my brain will let me do anything productive at night!!!
Thank you for all these videos, I'm having trouble keeping up which is a GREAT problem to have!
Love the idea of filling it with the weekly reset 💜 And sorry you're finding the videos to keep up with, hopefully you can save them for a CZcams binge or something 😝💜
This is one of the ideas I’m glad I’m trying digital bullet journaling. Copying and pasting will be so much easier! 😅
Haha that would make it MUCH faster to set up 😝💜
This is such a nice setup you made. I'd love to try something like this in the future, but being new to journalling in general I think I'll leave that for 2024 if I do manage to stick with it through 2023.
That’s fair 👏 don’t want to overwhelm yourself!
When I first watched this video, I didn't see a point in doing a journal like this but now I think I like it but I really want to just note moments like "thorns, Buds and blooms". However, I don't want to take effort in finding a thorn in everyday if there is none, because if I don't list something in all the spaces, I will feel incomplete. So like you, I think I will just have space and then just add the icon when filling it in.
I’ve got a pre made one already but gonna use the then and again on the last two payrs
Thank you for making me fall in love with this idea, now I'm thinking which one of my unused notebooks is going to become my 5 years journal
Aww yay! Most welcome! 😄💜 hope it works well for you 💪
How did you handle the leap year? Since 2024 is the only year in this journal that will have the extra day, did you just gray out the day for the other years?
I wondered about that too, but it seems like she wrote all of the years for february 29th
@@IsadoraOliveiraFranco hmm, ok! Maybe we could add something goofy on the years when Feb 29 doesn’t exist.
Poorly. She handled it poorly 😂 I was on auto pilot and put all the years in. Ideally I would have just had one larger space for the one occurrence of 2024, but I’ll probably just reflect and be like “good job past Jess, you muppet” 😂
@@JashiiCorrin lol, that makes sense! I would probably write something like, “this day does not exist,” in the years where 2/29 does not exist. 😀
a friend of mine did a 5 year inspired journal for me like.. 5 years ago (already??😳) and i loved writing every day with a different colored pen. so i could also easily differentiate between the years and what i wrote the year before or the year before that. i rly loved and still love it. but now it's nearly full and i'm thinking about copying the prompts myself in a journal.
Aww that’s a cool idea! I love the thought of writing in a different coloured pen 😄 maybe I could alternate between the colour of the month and black for each subsequent year 🤔
Jashii, please please please give us a desk/organization tour!
You mean a desk disorganisation tour, right? 😂 My desk is in dire need of work, but once it's done, tour all the way!
Jess, please stop! 🤣 I‘m still struggling to set up a yearly collection bujo & already you „make me“ want to have a 5 year journal 😂 it looks so cool and makes so much sense to me 😄
And as I’ve been so bad at commenting on the last videos - 2 random thoughts (which might be not be very original at all 🙈)
- Is November really the best option for a „no buy challenge“ 😇
-Simply: thank you! 😊I truly enjoy everything you put out! But all the mental health spreads/ideas are pure gold to me 💜
Have a lovely day/evening ☺️
Haha I just liked the sound of “no buy November” 😝 glad you’ve been enjoying the videos! 😄💜
I have just purchased the exact same journal for this purpose, but I was struggling to come up with my "how to do it". Once again, Jess to the rescue! This will be my mission for the month to make sure it is set up before January 1st.. Thanks so much for your creativity and forethought.
I love that you got the same one for the same reason, that's so perfect! 💜😄
That's an interesting idea.
😄 I’m feeling optimistic about it 💪
@@JashiiCorrin 💪💪
I like this idea a lot. If I do this I think I'll want to do a daily picture and write a bit about the day. We'll see how it goes.
Ooo daily photo diary! Love it 💪💜
❤❤❤❤
Love the idea and will also start a journal for this! You’re ideas are always so inspiring thank you! Now the hard task of deciding which size and which design haha. What will you use your daily pages for? Is t like a 2 a 3 sentences per day thing?
Mine is more going to be a mixed bag, but mostly reflections of daily wins, challenges, ways I’ve identified to improve, milestones, etc.
@@JashiiCorrin ohh that is a great idea and then also nice to see the difference per year indeed :)
I love this idea, and the video was very informative, however I think the most important thing I learned is that A5 notebooks fit in that tin from the June Archer & Olive sub box. 😂
Haha 😂 Glad you had that important take away! lol 💜
I've totally gotten out of journaling but this video makes me want to make a digital 5-year journal. Hmm...
Could do it! Would be a faster setup digitally, that's for sure 😝💜
I have set up a 4 year instead of a 5 year journal--it just worked better for me to make it for 4 years :) I was wondering if you have a link for somewhere to find a list of ideas for then&again prompts?
I love this idea so much, I'm def going to try it in this gorgeous keepsake journal I have that I've been stumped on how to use. Out of curiosity, how are you handling Feb. 29, 2024?
Poorly 😝 I was on auto-pilot when I was filling it in so accidentally put a space for each of the 5 years rather than just one larger space for 2024 (which would have been my preference). I'll probably just fill in something for the fake Feb 29th days with "past Jess is a muppet" lol
Your discount codes are about to get used like 10 times over! 😂
(Thank you for the journaling prompts too!)
Haha 😂 yessss, get all the savings! 💸 and most welcome for the prompts!
This is the greatest journal in the world wide world.
Haha thanks! 😄💜
I have watched this video several times, I think I am jumping in to make a gratitude journal next year to start in 2023. Thank you for the inspiration.
Hey, I just found a digital version of 5 year journal. Can you review that? I want to buy it but there are no reviews. May be you could try it out, it will be really helpful. Love you content!❤
This is a Wonderful idea 👏 I always wanted to do a 5 year journal. Thank you for sharing 👍👍 Stay safe healthy and happy ❤️✝️🇺🇸
Thanks! 😄💜 you too!
🙏
100% I think you should put your January 1st 2023 photo and 2028 photos NEXT to each other...or even 1 photo every year All together on the MAIN page!
I also love the IDEA of a 5-Year Journal, but never finished one. We should do a creator challenge -- all set one up and see who keeps theirs the longest. 🤣🤣
Haha 😂 keen! 👏
Oiiiii

Thanks! 😄💜 glad you’ve been enjoying the videos!
Hmmm I have 172 pages, but having like extra 50 pages for... something feels weird
I guess I could opt-in for like a month cover page to be like printable or art I really like at the time...
That’d be a cool way to use those! 💜
Me: "I'm going to finally do it! What a great way to use one of the extra journals that I have!"
**decides that none of my spares are quite right for this 5-year endeavor**
Me: "Oh no, guess I gotta place an A&O order 🤷♀️"
I've been wanting to start one since this video came out and I'm finally getting around to starting it this week! Now to wait 2 weeks or so for the new journal to arrive lol
Haha 😂 hope your new journal arrives promptly! 🤞
@@JashiiCorrin IT CAME TODAY! Much faster than expected. Thank you for sending vibes, I think they helped 😂
I've been using a Leuchtturm 5 year journal for the last year and have actually been consistent with it. Mostly because it doesn't have any journaling prompts, just space to write a few lines each day. But I don't like the paper and only use a pencil because I hate the ghosting that my favorite pens use. This is making me want to make my own 5 year journal, but it seems wasteful to get rid of the journal I already have and already use. Maybe I'll juat keep this idea in my back pocket until it's time for a new 5 year journal.
Yeah I knew that one thing my five year journal had to have was thicker paper because it would bother me to have something that ghosted or potentially bled 😅 cool that you’ve stayed consistent for a full yeah! 🥳💪
Thank u for this awesome idea
Thanks to u I am making one for myself now and there is no one on youtube who has done this so all the credit goes to u
🙇♀️thank u (^з^)-☆
Seeing the wear and tear on the archer and olive books makes me glad I don't buy them. I have been using Amazon $10-15 bullet journals daily and there hasn't been a single thing wrong with them and I've completely filled three of them.
That’s fair 👏 it was a shame that particular journal got worn as fast as it did 😢
I came up with the layout first. So I would know the size I wanted. Then the materials. So I know the type of paper I wanted to use. And then the cost I was willing to spend. Then went looking for what type I wanted. I'm still trying to find one. I have one that was gifted to me years ago. I have no idea where to find one just like. Because the person moved. And there is no information on where anywhere on it of the internet. It has linda white and black pages, blank white, and blank black pages. Haven't found it anywhere. Hoping someone other there knows. Enjoying your views. Happy holidays.
Now that 2023 is coming to an end, I was just wondering if you managed to keep up with a daily entry in this 5 Yr journal? How's it going? Would you make any changes?
Surprisingly, yup! 😂 I say surprisingly, because every other time I've tried a 5 year journal, it's been abandoned promptly 😝 This one is still going strong 💪 One thing I wish I'd done was fix the first two pages of those "year at a glance" style summaries. One line of boxes on each of those was shorter than the rest, and I could have used the extra line 😅
@@JashiiCorrin Awesome, glad to hear it is still going strong. I am about to set up a 5-year in a thicc ol' 400 page A5 blank Moleskine, so I will have a page a day plus a few extra pages. The blank paper scares me a bit, but I think I will use your template card to draw the lines in to split the page into 5. Fingers crossed this goes well. 🤞

For my degree I needed a math or a science , I chose biology...lots of memorization, some drawing.. no formulas, calculation better chance that my GPA would not drop.🤭🤔
Thats exactly what I did! Good luck on your journey! Rooting for you to ace your exams!
Oh I did..only one person in the college beat me
@@margueritemitchell1829 ohh didnt read the past tense lol. Congrats on your achievements!
Am I being stupid here or did I see you write 366 days in a year? I’m not familiar with journaling that much so please educate me for what the extra day is used for 😃
Every 4 years we have a "leap year" where February has 29 days instead of 28 😄 As this journal spans 5 years, and 2024 is a leap year, I wanted a space for that day too. I also wanted the journaling prompts to have one for the leap year day too 💪
Ok has she always had the ring on her ring finger or is that new 😮 jashi did I miss something 🤨
Haha I wear it on and off 😝 we’ve been engaged for many moons, lol
Awe!!!! Well I am sure we all can’t wait for those videos to come out! I would love to see a wedding bullet journal ideas, set up, ect. I am sure there is lots of brides out there who would love to see one.
And belated congratulations 🎉 lol
@@amydunn4062 I did pick a notebook out for my wedding journal....and then sold it, haha 😂
Lol nice well I guess gives you a reason to go shopping 🛒
