Dealing with overdue tasks using Todoist
I’ve not done much since Friday and as a result this image is what I’m left with – 18 due tasks today. I’m aware that I’ve slacked off a bit this weekend and I’m also aware of the pressure building up knowing that I’ve got stuff to prepare for and not moved it forward. IncidentallyContinue reading “Dealing with overdue tasks using Todoist”
Setting up Apple Reminders
I know I know, another post about me going back to Apple Reminders… Well, I’ve been feeling overwhelmed and wanted something Free (with functionality) Simple creation of items Sync between devices A widget Simple… I’ve used them all, as you most probably know but at the end of the day I don’t need major projectContinue reading “Setting up Apple Reminders”
Organising my email
I’m not sure if it’s because my day job now is locked in job seeking so I’m at the Mac a lot more but I decided to clear down my email. I just normally let them come in and delete very rarely. I decided with so many job search emails coming in and appointments orContinue reading “Organising my email”
Should you put habits in your task manager?
Should you put habits in your task manager is a question I’ve been asking myself for a few weeks now. I’ve both used a task manager and habit tracker in the past and I’m leaning towards two separate apps. This is why. Overwhelm I set up my task manager based on a mind map IContinue reading “Should you put habits in your task manager?”
Job hunting with Apple Notes
Job hunting with Apple Notes is something that kicked off last year so that I could keep a record of everything I had applied for (believe me, you need to keep track of it all). I looked at other solutions maybe using a third party app or using Apple Numbers but I ended up settlingContinue reading “Job hunting with Apple Notes”
Splitting up calendar items and your task manager
I’d been of the mindset that seeing my calendar items within my task manager was a must have but now I’ve switched over to Todoist and this isn’t an option for my iCloud I’ve come to the conclusion it actually clutters things up. Having a division of these two actually helps with overload to me.Continue reading “Splitting up calendar items and your task manager”
Update on my Todoist setup
I posted last week about coming back to Todoist and I wanted to share with you how it’s been going this week. As you can see I’ve kept it pretty basic with A project per category I need to manage A sub project if this needs breaking down E.g. Video within the Create project TheContinue reading “Update on my Todoist setup”
My Todoist setup
I’ve been switching apps again (you’re sick of posts like this right?) and with my kind of breaking and being overwhelmed with overdue Reminders UI I’ve gone back to old faithful – Todoist. I know I’ve written up posts on not being able to justify a subscription but I need to invest in myself andContinue reading “My Todoist setup”
The limits of Apple Reminders
I posted about how I thought I’d use Apple Reminders but a few days where I’m low energy and it’s overwhelming. I’ve missed items and they move to a red overdue area, it’s stressing me out seeing it that way. I’m chasing my tail a lot anyway but it’s making it worse. So I’m seeingContinue reading “The limits of Apple Reminders”
