Notetaking & Planning

Just wondering if most of you all use separate journals or planners for separate topics or all-in-one? I usually go by topic, but I seem to have a LOT of topic journals…haha!

I’ve been trying to improve the way I organize my daily tasks, and one thing I’ve learned is that a simple note-taking routine can make a real difference. Instead of keeping everything in my head, I write down important ideas, reminders, and tasks so I can focus on what needs to be done.

My usual approach is to start with a short list of priorities for the day. I separate urgent tasks from things that can wait, then break larger projects into smaller steps. This makes my workload feel more manageable and helps me avoid wasting time deciding what to do next.

At the end of the day, I review my notes, check off completed tasks,…

I love drawing these little doodles in my journals, notebooks and planners! 😍
