Can I Start a Bullet Journal in the Middle of the Year?

When it comes to bullet journaling, there is no specific time or date to start!

You can start a bullet journal in the middle of the year, middle of the month, or even middle of the week.

Since you are starting with a blank notebook, it doesn’t matter when you start a bullet journal.

Open notebook…start now.

You get to decide the pages and layout you’ll be creating.

Someone on Reddit asked if it was worth starting a bullet journal part way through the year. The responses were an astounding yes! I’m in full agreement.

That’s the beauty of the bullet journal.

It’s free-flowing and easy…you can start any day you want and take breaks if needed. Pick it up again without missing a beat.

There are no preplanned/missed pages so you get to control when and how your pages are created.

I say, go for it and start your bullet journal now!
