Found my old journal from 2016 and it's a mess.

I was cleaning out a closet last weekend and stumbled on my first bullet journal from 8 years ago. That thing is a train wreck. Pages full of color coded trackers for water intake and mood, none of them filled in past week three. I remember spending hours setting up these elaborate layouts every month, thinking I needed all those fancy headers and doodles to make it work. Now my current journal is just a pocket notebook with a pen, a monthly log, and daily tasks. I saw someone mention in a youtube comment that keeping it simple is the real goal, and that hit me. Has anyone else gone back to an old journal and felt embarrassed at how complicated you made things?

a train wreck" seems harsh. It's just a notebook.
