I use a mix of bullet journaling and GTD, and it has worked quite well for me (though not perfectly, of course). The physical bullet journal (notebooks from Leuchtturm) is a log of sorts, a place where I can take notes from calls etc. and write down anything that comes to mind, in the spirit of capturing every idea. Pen and paper just works better for me. My GTD context lists with next steps for all ongoing projects are physical index cards that I just keep in there, I re-write them whenever they get full (one side only). For my projects list, I use Notion, where I have one page that holds the list of projects, and each project having its own page which, most of the time, is just a simple list of TODOs, but can be more elaborate, with kanban boards for more involved stuff or simply a loose collection of documentation, screenshots, drafts, etc.. And of course, Google Calendar. I was never super disciplined with the weekly review stuff, but it really worked well for holding stuff that my brain would shed in the blink of an eye. I was always very slow, but it's rare that I forget anything I need to get done. |
What I understand is that bullet journals are typically most effective when you adapt it to your own work / domain, but most examples of what others use (including the subreddit community) are almost art projects.
I would be very curious what a more “HN-approved” bullet journal would look like.
