I have been using the Bullet Journal method since the beginning of the year to keep track of tasks and dates. The idea is that you use a physical notebook and follow a specific system to keep track of things.

It can be a bit time-consuming to set up everything for each new month, but it provides a good opportunity to review what I have on my calendar for the upcoming month. Apart from that, I'm not sure that I've found it much more helpful than digital tools that I've used in the past.

I've been using a Field Notes notebook, which is maybe a bit too small, but easier to carry around. Maybe I'll try a bigger notebook next time. Then again, if it hasn't been that useful, maybe I should just go back to tracking tasks using an app?

Over the holidays we tracked our todo list using a physical notepad on the fridge. I noticed it actually worked better than an app, so I decided to try out #bulletjournal for a bit. Got my Field Notes all set up. 📝 📓 pic.twitter.com/hkYftrJfQG
