How to manage tasks by summarizing all information with simple notes

It is a difficult task to manage tasks collectively by collecting various data everyday that overflows with information. As a result, applications and software for task management will be released one after the other, but the way that task management can be perfectly done with one notebook is "Bullet Journal"is.

An overview of Bullet Journal can be checked from the following movie.

First of all, I will make an index page on the first notebook. At this point just write "INDEX".


Next turn the note over with a piece and go to page 2 and 3. "AUGUST 2013" was written in both spread page.


Writing the dates from 1 to 31 on the left side ...


Pagination.


Next to the date I will change the days of the week.


On the right side of the spread, I will arrange the tasks to be done in the month with a check box.


Return to the index here and fill in what page the month is written on. The point that makes this easy to find later.


After finishing creating the index, turn over the next page on which the calendar is written. Then I will write the tasks of the day with headings as dates like "Monday x Sunday".


The point here is to mark the beginning of the task. In the movie, three kinds of marks "□" "◯" "·" are attached, □ checkboxes indicate tasks, ○ indicates events, · indicates memo. By doing so, you will be able to recognize multiple types of data instantaneously. After checking the task, put a check in the check box, put a line on the letters and erase it OK.


After writing tasks, I return to the calendar page and copy the main tasks from the list I wrote to the calendar. By doing this it is possible to overview the monthly events.


When January is over, I will create a new calendar in the same way.


The difference from the first month is to review the task of the previous month. Tasks that have already ended are checked or erased with lines.


For those tasks that did not end, we will write them next to the calendar for the new month. By doing this work at the beginning, nature and tasks of the previous month will come to the top of the page.


I will return to the index here and write the page title and page number "September".


If you want to dig deeper into one task, you can create a ToDo list on a blank page. If you do not forget the page title and page number, you can index it from the index page or the task list as well.


Bullet Journal is a method that Ryder Carroll developed as a learning obstacle over the course of 20 years, "Change the blank page to an efficient note by digital method" method. Organize various things such as ToDo list · schedule · meeting · health management and combine various data into one Bullet Journal is a tool to keep track of the days and achieve the purpose.


I make public how to make notes for freeBulletjournal.comAttracted attention from various websites and companies, and about three minutes of tutorial movies have been played more than 500,000 times. In addition, there are many people who arrange the Bullet Journal and devised their own way of use, and even a community where each person introduces a method to make efficient task notes has appeared.


So Carroll launched the Kickstarter project. The goal is to develop an intuitive and smart platform that makes it easier for users to find "methods for making Bullet Journal more efficient and profitable". The platform is also planning to serve as a "growing catalog" that stocks methods to increase productivity, thinking that movies, tutorials and reviews, etc. will gather more than ever and publish for free if the website is renewed It is done.


The project has already collected more than 28,000 dollars (about 3 million yen) when the target amount is 10,000 dollars (about 1.1 million yen), and it invested over 25 dollars (about 2700 yen)Leuchtturm 1917It was possible to get the limited version of Bullet Journal notes commercialized from, but the investment capital has already been filled, and currently only the $ 5 (about 500 yen) capital is left. If you do a $ 5 investment, you can quickly see a project update and a movie / task management tutorial, download a PDF file that points to the new Bullet Journal's guide and markup system, or download a new web You can also participate in site function selection.


The deadline is Japan time on October 16, 2014, 12: 6.

The investment in the limited edition Bullet Journal notebook has been filled up, but a new framework has been set up to get the regular version of Bullet Journal note with a new $ 25 investment. The number of notes that you can increase if you contribute more than $ 50 (about 5400 yen) to 2 volumes. In any of the equity capital, you can see the tutorial of project update and movie task management as soon as possible, so if you need to ship outside the United States, it costs $ 10 (about 1100 yen) for shipping costs separately Let's be careful.
