The end of the year is high, so here is a bit of a rundown of what we have discussed (or have not) on the blog about productivity and other knowledge.

Bullet Journal

A bullet journal or "BuJo" is a journal system that helps track thoughts, tasks, to-do lists, etc. It was created by Ryder Carroll. You should, at the very least, take a look at what it involves and see if it's for you. A good overview appears on Wikipedia. You can even find a book about it if you search the net.

Keep a Written Journal

Keeping a journal can certainly help you in your writing projects, but did you know that keeping a journal can reduce the symptoms of depression? I didn't either. Try keeping a journal, preferably a daily journal. If you want to know more about the "why," and benefits of such, check out the article on Psychology Today.
