Give every task a place

Now that you have the right tasks, it's time to sort and organize. Every task on your to-do list should be related to your goal.

  • Keep your projects visible. Seeing every project you've committed to keeps you from adding too many.
  • Sequence your tasks in a logical order before you get to work.
  • Add priorities. Some tasks are more important to your goal.
  • Give each task a due date. As a rule of thumb, estimate how long a task will take, then double it.
  • Ensure your to-do list sparks joy. Consider the wording, colour theme and emojis.

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

Ashley Anthony

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

Shankul Varada

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
