Review – Momentum

I’d played about with habit tracking applications in the past yet never found one that I considered to be sustainable.

Until now that is. I found Momentum

Why I Only Keep 4 Projects In ToDoist

I’m an avid Todoist believer and user. The features of Todoist, the feel of it, the platforms it’s on, and the price of it (free if you want) make it unbeatable for task and project management. Like any other software or app, when I first started using Todoist, I began to explore how to best use it and made it too complicated.

Diving Deeper Into Dropbox: The Ultimate Unofficial Dropbox Guide

I’ve been a Dropbox user for as long as I can remember. The thing is, I feel as if I’ve used it in the same way that I initially used Evernote – by throwing a lot at it and not necessarily organizing it while doing so. I know there’s a lot more Dropbox can do for me and my productivity. It’s time I start to make it happen and The Ultimate Unofficial Dropbox Guide is the key.

Review – BusyContacts for OS X

They gave us an alternative to the Calendar application with BusyCal, now those talented individuals at BusyMac have only gone and cracked it again with the release of BusyContacts.

Review – Mail Pilot 2 for iOS

Mail Pilot has been a popular email management application since it was released as a kickstarter web application in September 2012.

3 Ways To Create Start Dates In Todoist

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.

I’ve experimented with three ways to achieve start date functionality in Todoist, and while none of them are perfect…they do the trick.

Chasing Unicorns: How Using Asana Can Keep Teams Motivated

When you attempt to introduce a new system, workflow, or habit in your life often the biggest hurdle is starting and keeping the enthusiasm and momentum strong. I have introduced Asana to many people and after I explain all the benefits of keeping everyone’s actions in one centralised location, collaborating on tasks, sharing the status of projects and reviewing progress towards goals, I bring it back to actually getting tasks completed.

How I Use Todoist And Evernote Together

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.

Review: Good Todo

Some people – check that – lots of people, need to be able to pick up a device, regardless of their location and interact with their daily list of tasks. Period. No messing around with various contexts, calculating how long a task will take to complete, playing with defer dates and the like. They also want the ability to be able to add to their to-do list directly from their email as this is where a lot of their actionable tasks originate.
