Dates and times into Google Calendar. Notes into Evernote. Mini-projects into OneNote. Addresses in a txt file. Files into Dropbox. Postable things worth a few quid onto ebay. Tidy resellable non-postable things to the chazzer. Functional things worth nowt onto gumtree/freeshare. Glass into the cardboard box. Other recyclables into the green bin. Non-recyclables into the other bin. Coloured clothes into the big laundry bin. White clothes into the small laundry bin. Stalagmites. Stalactites. Black pepper, black pepper. Rose for the lady. Mole. Bowl. Goal! Gotta have a system.

I did this for about 2 days then lost interest and forgot about it. downloaded the Trello app to try and give it another go but don’t think I even opened it.

Summary: I am lazy

I only started it because I was juggling too much stuff at work, and I was struggling to keep track of everything without feeling stressed. This type of system is good for that, because it gets tasks out of your head and into one place, so, in theory, you don’t have the mental stress of remembering them.

A combination of:

  • Trello for big projects, especially when I need to delegate/set dates/have ticklists
  • iCloud calendar app for appointments
  • A notepad for lists while out and about. Can’t beat the old pen and paper approach

oh, i also try and set aside 10 - 20 minutes or so a week to have a think about what needs to be done and reassess stuff

#18

that sounds similar to why I tried to use it, just never stuck. seemed like a good idea though.

Your life is blissfully free of appointments and addresses of mid-priced Austrian hotels booked by your work?

#27

Yes. Also blissfully free of… appointments.

(That Netrunner one isn’t even right)

only thing that really works is send myself emails with stuff i need to do. can’t stand to have unread emails so will have to do the thing to get rid of the email. everything else is too much effort in itself to keep up with and makes things worse.

I use an android app called S Planner. Around the end of a month i spend a few hours mariculously updating it - shifts, appointments, trips, gigs, sporting events, absolutely pack it out. Then never do any of it. Been to one gig in two years. Cinema probably four times. Just get up, go to work, come home, watch telly, go to bed.
