It’s a new year, so a good opportunity to try out new organizing tools and techniques to improve time management and, of course, my peace of mind.

For this year, I’m trying out two things:

  1. Workflowy Workflowy [https://workflowy.com/invite/2fed6218.lnx] is a very neat organizing tool, where you can create infinitely nested lists, thus organizing your whole personal and work life using just bullet lists.

Use the invite link [https://workflowy.com/invite/2fed6218.lnx] to get 250 extra monthly items, on top of the 250 you’d get for a normal free account.

  1. Calendar as a to-do list After reading Work from a calendar, not a To-Do list [https://medium.com/sketchesbychatfield/work-from-a-calendar-not-a-to-do-list-9c93ea88fbcf] and The Case Against To-Do Lists (and What to Use Instead) [https://forge.medium.com/be-a-schedule-builder-not-a-to-do-list-maker-396096a7486a] I decided to give it a go and see how that works. Therefore, large tasks taking more than a couple of minutes go on my calendar instead of my To Do list (for which I usually use Bullet Journal).
