#100DaysOfBulletJournalIdeas: 23 - Regroup with a Currently Log in your Bullet Journal

Welcome to Day 23 of my #100DaysofBulletJournalIdeas Project! 

Idea 23: The Currently Log

The Currently Log

The Currently Log is an idea I got from scrapbooking, which is funny considering the fact that I haven't ever actually scrapbooked all that much, but when I looked into it a few years ago, this is one of the ideas that caught my attention. I eventually realized that it would be a sweet idea to add to my Bullet Journal as a way to take a snapshot of my life as it, well, currently is.

The way it works is that you consider a few different things that are 'current' in your life. This way you can pause time by reflecting on the things that you are into right now, which will be awesome to look back on in the future! 

You can make it whenever really. Whether you want to take a random snapshot right now, every week, every month, every quarter, mid-year, or even just once a year it's a fun little exercise :)

Here's a Currently Log from my first Bullet Journal from Sep 4th, 2014:

Adding a Currently Log to your Bullet Journal acts a snapshot of your life as it currently is.

You can tell from this that I am pretty much bike-obsessed. :)

I'm sure that when I look back on these, I'll feel all the feelings and memories I did at the time.
