My Small Sabbaticals set the tone for all of these things initially, but this vacation preparation – knowing I’ll be away for two weeks – took everything to a whole new level. And it’s a level I plan to stay at until I move ahead even further.
One of the biggest pain points that Todoist users have is the lack of start dates in the app. To be fair, not many of the task management apps out there have starts dates. And those that do have start dates don’t have the scalability that Todoist offers in terms of features and platform ubiquity. I’ve experimented with three ways to achieve start date functionality in Todoist, and while none of them are perfect…they do the trick.
This week on the podcast Michael Schechter joins me and four-time guest Patrick Rhone to have a candid discussion about the things you have to do versus the things that you want to do, among other things.
My daughter and her friends use them at school to tell each others’ fortunes. My son came home from pre-school with one as well. And it got me thinking: “What if I used a paper fortune teller to help me choose my next project?” So I did. And the results were exactly what I hoped they would be.
Back in my Costco days, I used to have to “ten key” regularly. I was the sales auditor for a short time period, which meant I had to enter a lot of numbers all day long. Using the top row of the keyboard would be a painfully slow process, so I used the numeric keypad on the large keyboard I had. I hadn’t used a numeric keypad in eons until I received a NewerTech Wireless Aluminum Keypad to review.
I decided to have some bonafide podcast experts on the program as my own podcast has just hit the six month mark of its existence and I wanted to find out what I could do to take things to the next level. Joel and Dr. Pei did not disappoint.
My way of getting Todoist and Evernote together isn’t all that difficult to assemble. It just involves working with the two apps with similar triggers and identifiers, as well as developing a routine that I get to know and follow every day.
I know that there are no absolutes that are constant. Things change and what all strategies don’t work for everyone. For every “don’t” there will be an “unless” and that’s fine. Unless…
I’m making time to read more and finding ways to create more time for reading as well. With Blinkist leading the charge (allowing me to digest a book in a single session on the FitDesk) and Audible providing me with another way to “read” more, I know that I’m not going to be able to read more – I’m going to be able to read better.
