I'm trying to implement the "Zettelkasten" approach (see ). Obsidian - for notes, as a "second brain" as mentioned below.That's not a task, so it doesn't go into Todoist. In my workflow, an event is something scheduled to happen at a certain time (e.g., we're eating dinner with friends tonight). Google Calendar - for events, as u/grandmaster mentions here.When it's done, I've got it tied to IFTTT to log the completion info to a Google sheet for habit tracking later (Todoist hides completed tasks). My wife tells me I see things "black and white " to me, either something's done, or not done. " As others have mentioned, these are discrete things that need to get done. If you want, I can attach some screenshots and explain further. I hope this helps you and answers your question. I prefer the overview, I mostly don't need to open a page and add stuff there. You can upload the files into the database as files or add them to the pages. You can start small and then add more data. Same with all other aspects of my life too. There I also note his recommendations and my notes and questions I asked. I scan the documents I get and upload them as files. I go to the doctor, create a new page and write down what he tells me. For example, when I have a rash on my hands. There I have:įor example, in Health, I always create a new page when I visit any doctor. I created a page for all important aspects of my life, some examples:Įach of these pages have a database/table. Hey, I'm really sorry for the late reply, but I noted it down to give you a helpful answer! The planning and reflecting walkthroughs are also quite nice (although ideally I would like to be able to configure this myself and sync the reflections/plannings pages to notion) The other thing it brings is insight on how you're spending time, which is something that Gcal is very clearly missing, and should be an obvious feature that Google has been way too slow on improving (although note Gcal did recently start at least telling you how long you're in meetings). I'm not sure it would be able to fully displace Todoist for tasks, but it would be close - it pretty much would just need the ability to have recurring tasks and it would be 90% of the way there.
The ability to drag tasks onto a calendar is just incredibly nice. As others have mentioned, it is expensive, and I haven't been using long enough to really kick the tyres.īut, so far, what I really like about it is it bridges the gaps between creating tasks and allocating time. I never really found a good fix for that, other than separately listing out projects and tasks (on todoist) and then needing to go to the calendar to budget time. Where I find the most friction is between Todoist and Gcal, because there is the clearest relationship between "needing to do stuff" and budgeting the time to do it. Todoist is to keep track of stuff I need to do and, frankly, to give that little dopamine kick of clicking done of something.
Notion is a sort of disembodied second brain. I think about the 3 as having quite distinct functions.
