TodoĪppigo Todo has shown some real growth in the task management space with iOS, web, and Mac apps that all sync together using their over-the-air-sync. If you are looking for a dead simple task app to get into, RTM is the one to choose.

RTM is free, fast, and has dedicated iOS and Android apps.

Once again, RTM doesn’t support projects right out of the box, but you can do some pretty unique things with tags, saved searches, and locations to make it work in that light. Remember The Milk (RTM) is a very powerful and “light” feeling task manager. If you want a decent workflow, you can check out my forum post explaining my GTD setup.

This helps ensure that OmniFocus is my trusted system.ĭo you use Defer dates in your workflow? What issues have you found in implementing them? Would love to hear your thoughts.Toodledo doesn’t necesarrily support “projects” right out of the box, but you can set up folders, tags, or even use the subtasks function that is offered in the Pro version. If an action truly must be completed by a certain date, I can enter this date, safe in the knowledge I will have it presented to me at the right time and I will be able to take action. This places their actions at the top of the Dashboard perspective, meaning I don't need to think about which order to process the actions in, I can run from top to bottom in comfort.īy leveraging defer dates and flags in the manner above, due dates can now serve their purpose. I achieve this by moving these projects to the top of my projects list in the sidebar and adding a flag. Actions related to these should sit at the top of my list. There are generally, as a rule of thumb, two projects that I have defined as my primary projects for the week. I also assign flags to projects as part of my weekly review. This allows for padding in my day, to deal with any fires that inevitably come up without the inevitable guilt that comes with incomplete tasks at the end of the day which you have deemed as important. I always try to assign less than I feel I can complete. It's vital to note that I'm fairly tight on the use of Flags in any given session. As I work my way through the Clearperspective I mentioned earlier, I can assign Flags to individual items, marking them as actions I would like to do. I have a perspective called Dashboard that shows only Flagged/Due Soon actions. When I set an action/project with a flag, I'm telling OmniFocus that this is something I would like to complete in the near future. I push out anything which doesn't need to be on my daily list, yet it helps me ensure it's still on my radar. I have a context named Clear (thanks to MacSparky for the advice here) which shows an unfiltered list of all available actions. Part of my morning routine (sometimes my evening one too - it's flexible) involves scanning through my available actions in OmniFocus and setting these defer dates. It will disappear from my available actions until that date appears, like a tickler system. If I know I don't need to be working on that research project until next month, I can set an appropriate defer date. I push projects or actions into the future by telling OmniFocus when I would like to see them again as an available action item. I have many projects in my OmniFocus database and were I presented with next actions for all of them, I'd be shutting down pretty quickly and heading off to waste some time on the Xbox - no question! I don't deal with overwhelm. Now, they are one of the most important attributes that I assign to a task. That's why I have now adopted Defer Dates, Flags, and Due Dates in equal measure because each plays an important role in how I prioritize my tasks for the day. If there were actions needed by a certain date, these would slip through the cracks.

I used to assign a Due date to signify when I would have liked to have the task completed by, as opposed to when the task was, indeed, due.

Almost every task would have a Due date assigned, yet I didn't realize at the time that I was throttling the effectiveness of both the application itself and my GTD system. For the longest time, I used to assign Due dates all over the show in OmniFocus.
