Anyone tried the (paper) Basics Notebook?

Hi

This (paper) notebook seems to have something of a following - having raised over $380K on Kickstarter.

Basics Notebook

I am curious to know if any of you have tried it. And if so how you got on. In particular, I am curious about how well all those various pages work in practice.

Personally one thing I still struggle with is getting my goal setting under control. I have been using MLO for task management but powerful though it is, it the goals and calendar side of it is rather weak. And it occurs to me that having a) limited space to write in and b) difficulty of erasure of writing might possibly be quite helpful and help encourage discipline...

Btw, I am not connected with this product in any way (other than toying with buying one!)

Thanks

J
 
I haven't tried it, but I did fall down the rabbit hole of The Professional Student website that you linked to, so thanks for that! I have a couple of friends I need to point in their direction...
