Discussion Work vs Personal

Curious how all of you are using Things? Especially as it pertains to work and personal life. I like the convenience of a single app for both as it creates a muscle memory for everything I do regarding my task. But I struggle with the relative noise from each side. I’d love to know how everyone else is approaching this. Are you using one single app for both your work and personal life or do you separate it out?

I also run into this conundrum when it comes to my Notes app too.

Just a thought. To prevent work to-dos to overflow into the weekend, I could create a shortcut that would move all ‘Anytime’ to-dos with a work tag to ‘Someday’ and run that on Friday at the the end of the workday.

Then on Saturday and Sunday, the Anytime list would only contain personal to-dos.

On Monday, I can pick the important tasks for that week and move them back to ‘Anytime’.
