Dot Journaling – A Practical Guide by Rachel Wilkerson Miller

Genre: Nonfiction Learning | Pub: 07.2017

Book Jacket Synopsis:

Organize your life, record what matters, and get stuff done!
What the heck is a dot journal? It’s a planner, to-do list, and diary for every aspect of your life: work, home, relationships, hobbies, everything.
Early adopter Rachel Wilkerson Miller explains how to make a dot journal work for you–whether you find the picture-perfect examples on Pinterest inspiring or, well, intimidating. You decide how simple or elaborate your journal will be, and what goes in there:

Lists of your to-dos, to-don’ts, and more
Symbols that will make those lists efficient and effective
Spreads to plan your day, week, month, or year
Trackers for your habits and goals (think health, money, travel)
Accouterments such as washi tape, book darts, and more!

Review & Thoughts:

Dot Journaling was the first book I’ve ever read on how to create and keep a dot journal. It was thorough, informative, funny, and overall a great guide.
Not only did this have good direction but I also found it inspiring and I connected with the author’s story and history about journaling. I connected with this and will be writing a separate blog post about it in the near future!

Favorite Quote: Planners and to-do lists typically focus on what you’re going to do, and diaries tend to focus on the things you’ve already done. But combining of these things gives us a complete picture of who we are.

Recommend for: anyone interested in dot journaling, organizing your daily/weekly/monthly/annual calendar, organizing your agenda and tasks in one place
