I'll interpret "guy stuff" as "EDC stuff".

You know, I would encourage new adults to keep a little something that I like to call "The Captain's Log." It's not so much what it actually is, but what it's actually for. I originally got the idea a few years ago from the character known as "The Judge," from this book. My Captain's Log has so far led me to figure out calculations for racing yachts, inspired new insights into the nature of humanity (which no doubt came to me while I was at a strip club in Guam), and designed a theoretical hull of a blue water sailboat based on Fibonacci numbers (maybe impractical, but still satisfied my curiosity about relating math to yacht design).

So what is The Captain's Log? It's a small notebook that you keep in your backpack, your camera bag, or even your back pocket. You take it with you wherever you go, as long as it's appropriate. For example, here are some places to take it: work, classes, or commuting/traveling. Here are some places not to take it: first dates (or even second, depending on how the first one goes), work lunches, or out to bars when you plan on drinking to forget. Or maybe that last one would be good... I woke up one morning and I had written down, "Give $1 to every person who GETS IT." What did I mean? Did I give money to a lot of people? And what the hell happened that inspired me to write that down?

Anyway, the point is that you keep it to write down random notes and ideas you have, or to use it as a scratch pad. You might say, "Why not just use a Notes application on your phone? That way you're not being a weirdo carrying around a little diary in your pocket."

And I would say:

  • It's not a diary. A diary is something you write a narrative account of your day in, and while that isn't a bad thing, that's not the purpose of The Captain's Log.

  • Instead of writing a narrative of your day, you simply document notes, sketches, or plans, that you think are significant at that moment in time.

  • The purpose of The Captain's Log is to then look back at earlier pages to see what you considered to be significant thoughts or patterns of thinking in the past. (And of course, yacht design!)

    This then allows you to make some revelations about yourself. You get to see how your mind worked, and how it has developed over time. And you see things that you--at one point in time--thought were significant enough to write in your Captain's Log. It also helps keep your ego in check because it will remind you of problems you used to think were huge, but now no longer matter--and that will imply that the huge problems you have right now, really aren't that big of a deal. And hopefully that will improve your relationships with other people as well.

    It also got me laid once. A girl stole it while at a Brewery and wrote a very alluring message on the next open page.

> monthly calendar on one page

I'm currently using a Field Notes Dot Grid, and I do squeeze the monthly calendar on a single page, splitting the dates into 2 columns. I use symbols for things like holidays, and only write in the important appointment for the day.

The key for the symbols takes 2-3 lines below the dates, and I'll have about 7 lines left for the tasks and goals I want to achieve for the month.

If you want to have more space for your monthly calendar, you can rotate the notebook 90 degs CW/CCW and you'll have 1 line per day.

Also, I love LAMYs!

I find that a field notes (or other identical sized notebooks, I carry off brand ones because they're $2/piece rather than $7/piece) and a pen fit perfectly together in my back jeans pocket. As far as I can tell, the knock-offs are the EXACT same product with different labeling. I also reinforced the spine with a strip of gorilla tape because the spines tend to get worn out after you've carried the notebook for a month or two with no reinforcement.

I like the small, simple, and very flat Field Notes books. They are inexpensive, durable enough, and small enough. I began my BuJo-ing with them and would buy again. I am a lefty also and appreciate the thin, flat, small format.

u/MechaFlamingoCandy · 1 pointr/ADHD

I'm still working out a system of my own, but it right now involves

  1. This planner

  2. These as an on the go planner filler

  3. Notecards that I write lists of things I have to do on
