A Trio of Todoist Tips

1. Thinking Horizontally and Vertically

Filtering by my Admin tag.

My first tip isn’t exclusive to Todoist. Just about every task manager incorporates both projects and tagging, which lets you think of your tasks in two dimensions. For me, each project is the vertical axis. As an example, this issue of MacStories Weekly could be a project that includes everything from writing the stories to coordinating with the rest of the team on their sections, assembling the stories, and publishing them to the web and email.

That’s simple enough, and I suspect most people with multiple tasks do something similar. What tags – which are called labels in Todoist – open up is a horizontal dimension that can help you decide what to work on. For me, that means the kind of work I do: writing, admin, audio production, etc.
