Keith BöhlerBeen using the <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/SuperProductivity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SuperProductivity</a> app the last few months and it is rather nice.

Jake in the desertInteresting Wired piece by <a href="https://mstdn.social/@clivethompson" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@clivethompson</a> on getting things done and why we don't always. I used to keep a to-do list and I stopped. I used to use Workflowy and Remember the Milk for lists (both okay). But now, my email inbox is my to-do list for essential things. I'll write a tiny, brief to-do list on paper if there's a couple things I need to remember or do that day, but that's it. I don't keep a running one anymore. I don't find it useful.<a href="https://archive.ph/ZpqBr" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://archive.ph/ZpqBr</a><a href="https://c.im/tags/GettingThingsDone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GettingThingsDone</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/GTD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GTD</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/ToDo" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ToDo</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/ToDoLists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ToDoLists</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/accomplishment" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#accomplishment</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/motivation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#motivation</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/procrastination" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#procrastination</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/psychology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#psychology</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/apps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#apps</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/shame" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#shame</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/stress" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#stress</a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/productivity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#productivity</a>

MinoruAnother GTD insight I'd like to write down is daily review.Perhaps it's in the book and I missed it when I skimmed years ago, but I recently found that I'm far more relaxed if I glance through my lists first thing in the morning. This takes between 10 and 30 minutes and includes:<ol><li>processing yesterday's journal (which is my most important inbox);</li><li>checking today's calendar and glancing through my "waiting for" list;</li><li>going through projects, deactivating/abandoning the ones that I don't plan to work on for at least a week; re-activating the ones that suddenly got important again; and ensuring there are next actions for the active ones;</li><li>picking a handful of projects that I'll concentrate on, and marking a few of their next actions as "must do today";</li><li>going through my assorted next actions (the ones that aren't tied to any project) and turning some into "must do" as well, to prevent them from languishing;</li><li>taking the final look at "must dos" to avoid overtaxing myself.</li></ol>I started doing this because with weekly reviews alone I sometimes felt mid-week that I've got too much stuff to do. Other times I felt like I'm following an outdated plan. Doing some of the "low-level" weekly review steps every day helps me course-correct more quickly, improving my mood (and willingness to stick with the system).As a side effect, my weekly review also takes less than 30 minutes now, because it's just two steps: process lesser inboxes and going through the triggers list. (I don't implement the higher horizons yet.)<a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/GettingThingsDone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GettingThingsDone</a> <a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/GTD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GTD</a>

MinoruOne benefit of implementing GTD using Markdown files rather than paper is that I can easily re-shuffle my triggers list when it gets too familiar. I find that the list is more effective when it feels "new", "surprising" even.<a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/GettingThingsDone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GettingThingsDone</a> <a href="https://functional.cafe/tags/GTD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#GTD</a>
