SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Bullet journal-style task management in Obsidian replaces fragmented task lists with a single, daily-log-based system. It guides you to capture tasks in daily notes, plan your day, and review yesterday's items, while linking work to multi-step efforts.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Daily log as the primary surface: Each day’s log/daily file contains Plan and Capture sections to organize work.
  • Lightweight funnel: Inbox (+/), daily logs, efforts, comms, and eventual team handoff.
  • Effort integration: Link tasks to efforts and reference related notes.

Quick Start

Open today’s daily note at log/daily/YYYY-MM-DD.md and begin capturing tasks in Capture, then review yesterday’s unfinished items and add them to today’s Plan.

What is the best way to capture incoming tasks and plan my day in daily notes?▼

Capture incoming requests in the Capture section of your daily log file, then review yesterday's unfinished items and migrate them into today's Plan section to maintain a focused, actionable daily workflow.

Can I link individual daily log tasks to larger multi-step efforts in Obsidian?▼

Yes, you can link daily log tasks to multi-step efforts. This effort integration connects your day-to-day captured items to broader projects, allowing you to reference related notes and track progress on larger goals.

Does this bullet journal task management approach require complex folder structures in Obsidian?▼

No, it enforces a minimal frontmatter-driven structure rather than complex folder hierarchies. It relies on daily log files and an organized funnel from Capture to Plan, with optional Efforts, Comms, and references sections.

How does a daily log funnel help review yesterday's unfinished tasks?▼
