Bible in a Year Made Simple

I usually like to do the Bible in a year, but this last year have made things too complicated. I am afraid I have the tendency to make EVERYTHING complicated, even if it isn't! So, this year was pleased to find you can buy a journal for the Bible in a year, and it is fresh, and unlike the other plans.
You basically have a day for a page, and that day has the verse listed that you need to read, and then you write reflections, and notes on it. That is great for me, as I like taking notes, and jotting down, as it helps to clarify what you are learning. I also love that it starts with the psalms, and she has made it coincide with Easter, Lent, etc.
Here you will find the one I got.
Also the aim is, if you want to keep resolutions, then make them a habit. Usually keeping something up for a few weeks will establish that. Last year I did it with workouts, and committed to a 6 day workout week. I followed it through, and now am at the healthy BMI goal for the year!
What resolutions have worked for you? What Bible reading plans did you like best? Love to here others' thoughts.
