Hit page 200 in my bullet journal yesterday and it felt weirdly important

I mean, I never planned to fill that many pages. I started it for work tasks back in January and it just kept going. But hitting 200 made me stop and look back at everything - the dailies, the random doodles, the habit trackers I abandoned after 3 weeks. It's not about the number really, it's that I actually stuck with something for that long without switching systems. Has anyone else been surprised by how many pages they went through in a year?

Wait, do you ever flip back through the old pages? That's the part that gets me - seeing how much changed from month to month, like the random stuff I was worried about that just doesn't matter now.

seeing how much changed from month to month" hits different now for me too. I used to think journaling was pointless, but you just made me realize it's actually the best way to track how much you've grown.

It's actually journaling, not journalling lol
