My Evening Routine with a Bullet Journal: 3 Things I Do to End the Day with Intention

Morning routines get all the attention, but how you end the day is the true catalyst for starting the day well. Waking up at 5am really hard when you go to bed at midnight or later. So how do you end the day plays a huge role in the next morning. Ready to focus and actually achieve your goals?

At the end of each day, I do 3 things... 1. Review the day's work in my main bullet journal, checking off my top tasks and migrating incomplete tasks to the next day. 2. Completing my time tracking entries. 3. A few lines of journaling about what happened during the day. These 3 things allow me to mentally process the day and "let go" of tasks by migrating them to the next day. Adding the time entries helps me feel ok about going to bed around 10pm because it's "scheduled". Finally the journal entry helps me close down the day since I'm writing down the things that occurred. To be honest I still watch a little bit of a show most nights, but it's a part of the routine and not something I default to. I watch after completing the 3 primary tasks that really help me close down the day. One little trick I do while watching is stretching, it really helps let my body know that bedtime is coming! 1:33 - Bullet Journal Wrap-up 4:24 - Time Tracking 6:52 - Journal Entry Learn more about the 10 Blocks here:    • A Minimalist Bullet Journal Week: The 10 B...   and Time Tracking here:    • A Simple Time Tracker for the Minimalist B...   I have a new Instagram account for Bullet Journal tips!
