What is a Bullet Journal Habit Tracker
A habit tracker helps you track habits that you are trying to adopt or behavior that you are trying to change. It helps you set personal goals that you aim to reach by visually showing your progress. It motivates you and keeps you accountable.
A habit tracker is not one of the core collections (spreads) in a bullet journal but it is referred to as a Custom Collection. This is a spread that a user adds to a bullet journal to serve a specific purpose, in this case, to build a new habit or change a behavior. When tracking habits, Ryder Carroll, creator of the Bullet Journal Method, suggests that you only track up to 3 habits at one time. If you track more than 3 you will become overwhelmed and probably not land up changing any of them. However, as always, do what works for you.
Bullet Journal Tracker Ideas
The following BuJo habit tracker templates can be created with our free online bullet journal app. Each template can be customized before you print. You can add doodles, text, frames, quotes or elements with a click of your mouse.
Daily Habit Tracker
There are 30 boxes for each habit but you can add more if you want. To change the habit tracker template go to “Planner Inserts” and select “Habit Trackers”. There are many options available.
You can change the images according to the habits you track. These are only examples.
Weekly Habit Tracker
There are two versions of the weekly tracker depending on whether you prefer to start your week on a Sunday or a Monday. If you added the wrong version you can delete it by clicking on the trash can in the bottom left corner. To make the bee design, either use the ready-made templates or the doodles in the “bee” category.
Each section tracks a habit for seven days.
Monthly Habit Tracker
There are a few monthly tracker templates available. They have 28, 30, or 31 days. You can use any version. If you only want to print one version, I suggest you use the one with 31 days which can be used any month.
There are many templates available such as the circle tracker below.
The bee template has 31 honeycomb hexagons to track a habit for 31 days. If you want to delete any of the days, delete the hexagons on the top. The top 5 can be deleted. You can create a habit template for 28, 29, 30, or 31 days.
Yearly Tracker
You don’t need to start your yearly tracker in January. Start any month and complete the year.
These habit charts track a single habit over a one-year period. You can start any month and complete a year.
This is a year-at-a-glance habit tracker. You can add doodles or embellishments if you want to. You can either fill in the habit by hand after you print or click on “Add Text” and type it before you print. You can track a new habit each month or the same habit each month. Whatever works for you!
Long Term Trackers
The weekly or monthly trackers above are good for accountability since you see the days you did something and the days you didn’t.
However, the more times you repeat a behavior the better chance you have of forming a habit. Therefore, some trackers have multiple sections that you color when you do something. Since it takes at least 66 days to form a habit (see below) these trackers last longer and have a better success rate than the shorter-term weekly or monthly trackers.
There are two ways to use this tracker. Either you can color a puzzle piece each time you do something or you can color code it. One color will be for when you do something, another for when you don’t and you might even want to include a third color for partial implementation.
