I have been looking for a good to-do ecosystem for so long that I ended up with pen and paper. Hear me out. I bought very nice a6 paper notebook and very comfortable ball pen an I just enjoy having this one non-digital, offline thing. After years of not writing with pen and doing most of my life management digitally, having this one thing this way... It's hard to explain but I enjoy. I even try to write with nice joined-up writing, because it's not like in school when I had to write a lot fast. No, every to-do is a few words or a sentence and thus I can take time and write nicely. At the beginning of the notebook I have next todos section, in the middle I have in progress long term todos and at the back I have inbox.
Last year, I gave up in shared online (non-goog) calendars with my partner. We just use a wall calendar again, like we did many years ago, and it "just works". So I get you.
But I'm curious how you maintain an always changing list of to-dos in your notebook. That sounds... messy maybe?
I'll have to go see if there's some way people organize that these days.
Oh yeah, we also have a wall calendar with my wife. But personally I use digital calendar.
Its not as messy for me, but took time to come up with something that works for me. The three categories are intentional. "Next" are basically simple tasks that can be done at once (but take more than a few mins), added after planning, so that doesn't really change once they are added (and I just tick what is done). In progress, pretty similar, but longer term tasks (maybe not perfect name for the category). I usually keep a section under the task based on how much I expect sub-tasks or notes. And inbox, well its just add all, plan later list. When something moves to next or in progress or is done immediately I just tick it in inbox. In inbox I have 3 types of tick-boxes. Square ones - if I expect a task to be doable fast without moving it anywhere (in GTD those are the under 2 minutes tasks). Then round one for tasks that need to be added to next. And triangle for tasks that will be longer-term tasks and need to be added to the in-progress section once I decide to do them.
Where do you keep them? They're always in your pocket?
Not really, I have them home at my desk. When I have something I need to add when I am not home I usually add it to the self-message on Signal which I basically use as inbox for all sorts of ideas anyway.
What a genius idea. I just setup a "self" group for this. Thanks!
I think Signal has this by default. It's called "note to self". So not really my idea ๐
