![]() ![]() I have a Level 1 project called personal with a sub-project called “side work.” I have several different “side projects,” with a label for each. After picking the right project, assigning correct labels and even trying to assign certain time labels, the process was really time-consuming. It felt like I was spending more time sorting and organizing tasks than I was actually doing the tasks. The second problem was the time I spent organizing tasks. ToDoist only allows a task to be in one “Project,” so I’d often go looking at a project and not see a task that I thought should be there or I’d forget to do a task where it later made much more sense. I would be ultimately left with a decision that I could never really fully justify. Some things bordered on the two of those. Both of these are ongoing “lists” and it got kind of confusing when sorting what went in which project. For example, I had a communications project and a social media project for the church that I work for. One of the problems was that I had very similar projects that continued on forever. I created projects for just about everything I could think of, started creating and borrowing custom filters, and even made labels of about anywhere I could think of.Īfter a few months of real and personal use, I came across a couple of problems. Like any other software or app, when I first started using Todoist, I began to explore how to best use it and made it too complicated.īecause I wasn’t extremely familiar with it, I began to borrow from other people and use their systems. The features of Todoist, the feel of it, the platforms it’s on, and the price of it (free if you want) make it unbeatable for task and project management.
