That time I lost my bullet journal…

How will you develop amazing new habits for 2017?
Are you thinking about Christmas, or making rash promises to yourself about how you will form wonderful life changing habits in 2017? I hoped that the habit log in my bullet journal would be a year round winner when it came to new habits but I must confess that it has...Get featured on our blog!
