Introduction

A bullet journal is a "getting things done" or "productivity" tool.

“A Bullet Journal is a modularized system of calendars, daily logs, and personalized notes, all brought together into a notebook with an index and daily usage. It’s easy to learn. You don’t have to read a book to learn the system.” (The Messy Bullet Journal, Part 2, retr. jan 2019.

“Though it does require a notebook, Bullet Journal® is actually a methodology. It's best described as a mindfulness practice disguised as a productivity system. It's designed to help you organize your what while you remain aware of your why. The goal of the Bullet Journal is to help its practitioners (bullet journalists) live intentional lives, ones that are productive and meaningful.” (about (retr. Jan 2019).
