It usually uses bullets (or a key consisting of bullets/symbols) as its method of classification of things to do (events, tasks, deadlines) , and the fact that it is all within the same journal makes all the information be integrated.

It is a great organizational system because it allows you to clear your mind out of those ‘reminders’ that we always have at the back of our heads (it can go from basics like ‘do laundry’, ‘remember to pick up cereal’, school/work deadlines, appointments etc.). You can basically write down everything that you need to get down and control your progress. 

It can help you prioritize and schedule.

It differs from a traditional planner because you design the system and key that works for you because it’s flexible. 

The basics you need is a journal (any size/layout will do) and a pen. You can go all fancy with washi tapes and stickers but there’s no need to.

If it takes you more to decorate it than to write down what you need to do, it defeats its purpose.

From there, you decide the layout and the key.
