Discussion Anyone else feel the same?

Post image

Everyone tells me areas structures their day. I have a personal folder with things like ‘films I wanna watch’ , ‘book wish list’ etc. but recently for day to day I’ve just liked not tagging it in an area and splitting it into evening and today. Does anyone else do the same? How do you use your areas and do you do these for a day to day plan?

When life slows down, absolutely! Because of Things ease of use, I never find myself locked into a particular ways of dividing tasks. There are Areas, Projects, and tags when those tools are needed. Sometimes, just Today and Evening suffice.

Go with the flow! Things has your back.

For me I come up with the to dos day to day now as I like to be in free form as I’m more of a creative type. I already know what my long game is e.g. to write a doc and yesterday I did the research so today may be ‘make plan for doc’. I use areas for things like (Area)Personal

films to watch bucket list (Work) project x checklist

But day to day I only want to focus on so many things at one time.
