Thank you for your describing how you work with MLO. - I think assigning Context is the key in successful applying MLO to your life.

Sure … I have all kinds of stuff in MLO – work projects, personal projects, appointments, family activities, domestic routines, someday/maybe, notes Inbox gets processed at least daily, sometimes more, to give all tasks a Due Date and a Context, and move them to the right place in the Outline Every night, anything Due tomorrow (or not completed today) is reviewed, and either Starred or deferred The Starred list (of Due Tomorrow) is then manually sorted to suit the day – morning routines, appointments, working day, errands to run, calls to make, evening routines Yes, the daily review is a bit of work, but for me it’s way easier that devising a system that’s fully automatic And yes, I keep deferring the same things – but at least I know what I’m putting off, and why Now and then, Projects get reviewed, to make sure I’m not missing anything, and mostly I’m not Occasionally, but not often, I view by Context – but everything gets a Context, just in case All this is managed in 4 main views – Inbox; Outline/ All tasks; Due next 30 days; Starred – and occasionally in Outline/ Projects Processing is usually done on the PC, Windows version, and cloud-sync’d to Android for getting through the day On the go, tasks are often added to the Inbox via the Android ‘Input by Voice’ widget I love how everyone can use MLO differently, there’s no one way – and I marvel at some of the ways described on here :- ) Wol From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of nilo de roock Sent: 17 July 2019 09:15 To: MyLifeOrganized <[email protected]> Subject: [MLO] Re: Does anyone here use MLO to plan out their whole day/week or for projects only?

I have a view which groups by context, showing tasks which are due on or before today. Weekly tasks can be nudged forward to the future when done, and will appear at the right time. The view gives a full schedule list, but in practice I filter on the context for the current time slot. This approach works best if most of your days have a similar schedule. Hope this helps Laurence Isn't that what Context is for? - I mean create Contexts Admin and Coding and schedule these contexts in the context weekly planner... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
