Can we talk about how much time we actually spend setting up a new journal

Honestly, I was convinced my 2-hour setup sessions were normal until I read a blog post by a productivity coach who tracked her time and found she only spent 45 minutes. I found it on 'The Pen Addict' blog last Tuesday, and it totally surprised me. How long does your initial setup usually take?

Wow, I'm the opposite, I just dive right in.

Yeah, that blog post sounds so unrealistic... like who only spends 45 minutes? For me, it's not just setting up the pages. I have to pick the right pen for the first entry, test all my highlighters to make sure they don't bleed through, and then there's the whole debate about what should go on the first page. It's a whole process that easily takes a full afternoon if I'm being honest with myself.
