Bullet Journal and Task Management in Obsidian (part 1)- Free Vault for download and Folder Structure

This is the vault in Obsidian that I use daily as a bullet journal and task manager. This is going to be a series of posts on explaining how I use this vault.


 

Download the full vault .zip file here. Extract it, save the folder to your desired location and then open it from Obsidian.

If you just want the snippets, download the snippets .zip file here. Extract and paste the CSS snippets to your .obsidian/snippets folder (show hidden files and folders in your file explorer).

For a list of the alternate checkboxes you can use, see here (you don't need the minimal theme, the CSS snippet I have enabled will work on any theme, even the default one):  https://minimal.guide/Block+types/Checklists

Folder Structure

I have 3 parent folders:
  • inbox - this is where I have Obsidian automatically store any new note I create
  • journal - this is where I have Obsidian automatically store daily notes. I keep the current month in there, then when the month ends, I review and archive by month and year.
  • collections - this is where everything else goes (gets populated only as I go and need):
    • bullet journal elements (will be discussed in the index page section)
    • studies
    • trackers (book reading tracker, goals, projects etc)
    • journal archives (daily note archives by month and year)
    • book notes folder
    • knowledge base
    • family stuff
    • attachments - I've set it as the default attachments folder for images, PDFs etc. I found it as a great way to exchange files between my 3 devices too.
  • under the 3 parent folders I have the index page. This is my "dashboard" . Will be discussed in part 2.

New Page template button with timestamp in the title - Notion

These days I'm all about discovering ways for people to use Notion  without  the use of databases, as databases slow things down. I'm also an advocate for minimalism while still having an efficient workflow. Today I'm giving a tip with an example of daily journal entries. Usually, a Notion template comes with a database for journal pages, with a "Date created" property which is mighty convenient. But you can also replicate that without a database.  This will make it super fast for you to start journaling on a new page with the current date and time already added to the title. Create a simple text page where all your journal entries will be stored (no databases/tables). Optional: You may create a subpage to serve as an Archive for past entries. Again this should be a simple text page, not a database. You may also have multiple archives, named after the 12 months or years to keep things more organized. Type / , then template , then select the Template button . Give
