This blog is quickly becoming an archive of how I used to do things. Since the last post about my Startpage it has continued to change. And so too has my contents page. I use the default Contents page that comes with Logseq as it will open by default when you open the right sidebar. I use it as an extension of the Startpage. This means it holds both the same information as the Startpage, as well as a lot of extras....
I wanted to make a blogpost about my new start page, however as I keep iterating on it, it kept changing. So every time I was working on a draft, it was quickly outdated. Still, I’ll keep trying. I’ll go over the reason why I moved away from opening Logseq on the journal pages (default setting), the basic idea of the start page and how I keep changing things. Primarily I will go over the queries I use on the start page....

How to organize and display my day has been a long struggle for me. I need the display to be structured and clear, so I don’t get overwhelmed. Only this year have I found something that really seems to work for me....
History In my previous post The transition to Logseq I mentioned I came to Logseq through Bullet Journaling (BuJo). This was at the end of 2022. I came across Bullet Journaling itself back in 2018. Every year I changed my notebook. Looking back over those notebooks, it was just experiment after experiment. Tweaking and adjusting to my needs in the moment. That’s the beauty of BuJo, it is easy to adapt to your current needs....
