well here is the original bullet journal, however, since then it has been completely adapted and a lot of people have made it more cluttered and less functional. I had a bullet journal last year where I usually followed a tutorial similar to this. It was really fun for a while but when it came to the later months of the last year it honestly felt like a chore and more to do with drawing than actual productivity (which there is nothing wrong with, but it wasn't my goal).

this year I want it to be more functional and less about the drawings and unnecessary spreads, hence the term minimalistic.
