![]() ![]() If I don't want to, I can deal with it later by setting a due date. If I want to do it soon, I can leave it in the Inbox. This way I can put a bunch of stuff in at once and not worry what project it goes into. I experimented with this before but now have started in earnest – using Labels instead of throwing things in a project. ![]() Do what to just keep moving the date? Is that a project instead of a task? Well I had to really think about it. I will say that most things do need to have those things, but I found that some things I just want to get done, and maybe one task will take me a few days (say, like writing a blog post). One of the mind shifts that I had to change is that every task had to be in a Project and have a Due Date. One trick that works both on the desktop and in the browser is to Shift-Click on several tasks and you can edit many on once. Obviously you can only do this in the browser. If you wrote 100 tasks in the text editor, you now have 100 new tasks in Todoist.īut managing tasks is also easier on the web version simply because of the todoist-shortcuts add-on which basically puts the GMail shortcuts into Todoist. Paste – the app will ask you if you want one task per lineĪnd… that's it.Find the label or project you want those tasks in – or Inbox if you want.Type each task, one a time in a text editor, using the DSL if you want.Rapid logging, for example, is so much easier through the browser: But what I figured out is that the web app gives me so much more. I am now of the opinion that the Web App for Todoist is far superior than either the mobile or the Desktop apps, which is funny to me because the "apps" are really Electron apps so you would think they would be the same. I won't want to belabor points about Trello and OmniFocus – this is really on how I can start using Todoist better. My final decision is to change how I am using Todoist. To make this shorter: I gave up looking at other apps and dug into the Todoist help a bit more. I then tried both Trello and OmniFocus and figuring out how they can fit into my paradigms of what I wanted to achieve. He sent me the link to The PARA Method which really screwed up my thinking but I felt like it gave me the permission to look at using more than one app to accomplish what I wanted. I have a friend that that shares the productivity bug with me and we chat a lot about idea. My previous post about my bullet journal got me thinking of rapid logging, and got me thinking about how projects in Todoist aren't just working for me – and suddenly I found myself in another Todo App Crisis. ![]()
