Sudoku becomes popular
In 1997, Wayne Gould, a man from New Zealand, was visiting Tokyo. While he was browsing a bookstore, he saw the squares and felt tempted to fill them in. Over the next six years, he developed a computer program that instantly makes up Sudoku puzzles.
Gould's wife published one of his puzzles in the local newspaper. It spread to Britain and was published in the Times, where it took off.

Productivity hangups
It is quite understandable that not all productivity apps will work for everyone.
You might add a list of tasks to an app, tell yourself you'll use it, and then forget ...
Why people feel guilty about not using to-do lists
Everyone envisions the ideal, productive version of themselves. That imaginary self uses a to-do list app.
Productivity blogs have done a great job of branding themselves as essential. These apps can be helpful, but if they don't work for you, that's ok.
Use whatever productivity system works for you
Productivity is a personal thing, and what works for other people might not work for you. That's not embarrassing. Use the tool that works best for you.
