> [!tldr] **Index. Day, Future, & Month logs. Trackers. Lists.** # Index Keep track of what's in your book and where. Also keeps track of what your paying attention to from a high-level. Useful when you've got more than one volume. Index is roughly 4 pages of _collections_ in a list. # Collections - **Day log** - [[Rapid Logging]] kept throughout a day. Just the date at the top and a rapid log until tomorrow. Not indexed. - **Future Log** - grouping of many upcoming months in a box. Write stuff in the months that it has to happen. - **Month Log** - sequential listing of days, across from a task list for the month. Write down what you did _after_ you've done it. - _Special collections_ - food trackers, lists of various types, all sorts of things can be done. ## Connections Took me a while to realize the pattern in bullet journaling's daily logs, monthly logs, and future logs – namely they're all the same basic idea. ![[Bullet Journal Modules 2026-09-13 19.03.45.excalidraw.svg]] %%[[Bullet Journal Modules 2026-09-13 19.03.45.excalidraw.md|🖋 Edit in Excalidraw]]%% It's a good pattern.

And you have a natural spot to collect data as you go. **** ## Source - [[The Bullet Journal Method]] ## Related - [[Bullet Journaling]]
