Color key ideas

Pick 7 colors before you start, then keep them for the whole month or year. The first five scales come from the Pixy app.

ExcellentTerrible

Pixy default

Green for good days, red for hard days, light gray in the middle.

ExcellentTerrible

Classic traffic light

Strong greens, yellow, and reds. Bold and easy to read from far away.

ExcellentTerrible

Purple to orange

No red and green. Works well if you see those two colors poorly.

ExcellentTerrible

Teal to brown

Calm, earthy tones that look good in a bullet journal.

ExcellentTerrible

Soft green to red

Pastel middle steps. Easy to reach with colored pencils.

ExcellentTerrible

One color, seven shades

Only one marker? Press harder for better days, or the other way round.

Tips for your key

  • Test every pencil in the key first. Colors on paper look different than in the box.
  • Keep the same key all year. Changing it makes months hard to compare.
  • Keep the middle step light, so strong days stand out.
  • Mixed day? Color the square in two halves.

What else can you track?

Mood is the classic. Any sheet works for other things too. Print a second Year in Pixels for one of these:

Energy
From exhausted to full of energy.
Sleep quality
How rested you felt in the morning.
Stress
From relaxed to overwhelmed.
Anxiety
How worried or tense you felt.
Social time
Alone, with one person, or with many.
Movement
None, a walk, or a workout.
Screen time
Low, medium, or high.
Gratitude
One color per day you wrote one thing down.

How to keep a paper mood tracker

A mood tracker works when it takes less than a minute. Five steps:

  1. 1

    Pick one time

    Track at the same time each day. Right before bed works for most people.

  2. 2

    Keep it visible

    Put the sheet and your pencils where you see them, next to the bed or desk.

  3. 3

    Rate first, think later

    Color the square in 10 seconds. Your first answer is usually the right one.

  4. 4

    Add one word

    A feeling or an event. It explains the color when you look back.

  5. 5

    Look back every month

    Count the colors and read your notes. Patterns show up after a few weeks.

Bullet journal sizes

  • A4 sheet in an A5 notebook: print at 71%.
  • US Letter sheet in a half-letter notebook (5.5 x 8.5 in): print at 65%.
  • Trim the margins and glue the page in.
