Bullet Journaling – More than just a hobby

“Track the Past, Order the Present, Design the Future”

With his Bullet Journaling method, Ryder Carroll perfectly captures the spirit of the times and brings the old-school diary back into our lives. Reinterpreted, it's become a hip lifestyle.

Bullet journaling combines two monotonous methods – keeping a diary and a calendar – into a completely new approach. Everyone is free to design their bullet journal and choose which elements to use. So, how do you get started with your first bullet journal?

There are countless ways to organize and optimize your life, but first and foremost, you need the right materials. The journal itself is, of course, essential. Our BulletProof is ideal for this, featuring the typical dotted grid printed on its pages, which you're probably already familiar with from Pinterest and similar sites.

Then it's time to plan. What content do you want to include in your new, stylish journal, and what goals are you pursuing with it? A calendar tailored to your needs is a great way to organize your daily life. Alternatively, the internet offers countless creative ideas that can make the whole thing more interesting. From mood trackers to meal planners, there's something for everyone. Simply browse Google or other websites and gather some inspiration that you can then incorporate into your journal. Once you've done that and your head is brimming with ideas waiting to be written down, you should first create a table of contents on a scrap of paper. When you're sure that everything is in the order you envisioned, you can transfer your table of contents to your BulletProof – the second or third page is ideal for this, leaving you room for a nice cover page.

Now it's time to get down to business! Imagine what you want your BulletProof to look like, what style you like, and which colors you want to use. First, you can have some fun exploring our website , where you'll find plenty of tips on choosing the right markers. Our YouTube channel even offers tutorials on how to develop a cool, unique handwriting style. Because anyone can write beautifully; you just need a little practice – for example, with Neuland Ambassador Heather Martinez and her fantastic tutorials ! Once you know which pens and markers you want for your BulletProof , you'll need to make a decision, because we offer all sorts of colors, nibs, and sizes.
