I’m still figuring out how to use my notebook for different things. For now there are four main things: reminders, bigger tasks, points before a meeting and taking apart bigger ideas, or brainstorming.

NK, on the other hand, has been using notebooks for years. Being the colorful person they are, they develop creative ways to write down their thoughts. One of the ways they choose to enclose lists in days is in circles. I’m not sure I’ll adopt this system myself, but it does look good.

Here’s a look 📷 of two days from our vacation, with their permission:

Two overlapping circles on graph paper contain handwritten notes, with various names and locations, surrounded by blue watercolor stains.
