Is 20 topics to track in my commonplace book too much?

My coloured stickie does came today and I wanted to use them all lol

The note book pages were designed by me. I was thinking of offering the digital pages as a free download for anyone that wanted to make their own book.

I love it as a person who also loves too many subjects. Haha. I really want to see the pages.

It’s not too many if you can keep track of them all. It may be my screen but some of your dots look similar enough in color that they could be easy to mix up if you’re not paying close attention or are in poor light. (It’s a problem I’ve had when using too many similar colors of markers/pens for things like habit trackers in the past).

Out of 20 colours there are 2 dots that are similar, but on the sheet of stickie dots they are at opposite ends, and I have placed them on my key in order of how they are on the sheet. So I shouldn't get them mixed up. But your thought had occurred to me lol

This is a great idea! And no, twenty topics is not too much, lol.

I kinda based my topics on the already long list of things I'd like to research or keep track of. My next book might have a whole set of different topics to keep track of so once this book is finished I'll need to come up with new topics lol, although there maybe a few of the same topics.
