    Ah, Trello.

    I can use that to hyper-focus on my tasks. But before I do that, I have to list, prioritize, and organize my tasks. But before that, I should create a layout for my tasks. What statuses should I have. Should I use deadlines?

    What was I doing again?

      The problem with every organization app.

      “It worked for me! Now all my projects are organized and it’s so much easier than when I was keeping everything in my head… After I was able to sit down and focus for a day to import all my data and organize it and set up the program to tailor to my application and now that I go back to it to reorganize my new info every week…”

      I just use 6 lists and I grab and move cards along them from left to right. My lists are very simple:

      Would be nice to do Need to do Doing today 🎉 Done today Completed in the last 4 weeks To be archived

      I only use 2 automation rules. One rule to move new cards to the top of the list I created them in and a second rule to automatically move cards along the last 3 lists depending on how long they’ve been there.

      It’s been life changing for me. I don’t get side-tracked anymore cos I can just dump whatever it is into one of the lists on my pc or my phone. It’s also really helpful that I can put a “Due by:” date that gradually changes from yellow to red as the deadline approaches.

        I’ve been looking for a better way to track my at home tasks and projects, would you recommend it as highly outside the workplace? I figure a task is a task so it’d probably be fine but wanted to ask.

        Edit: typo

          …recursive eisenhower method works well for me: it’s effective + simple-enough not to be bogged-down by overplanning…
