The main thing to keep in mind is to keep your first bullet journal simple. Follow the original bullet journal method of rapid logging, using signifiers, and keeping a future/monthly log. Just these simple steps will help you stay on track.

Another habit trick I use is to hook up the practice of bullet journal reviews to an existing habit, like brushing my teeth. After brushing at night, I'll spend 5-10 minutes going over the day and noting my top tasks for tomorrow. Then I place the bullet journal on my desk, open to the day, so it's the first thing I see when I start work.

I hope this video helps get you started with setting up your first bullet journal. It's a great practice and one that can help you focus on the tasks and projects that matter most.
