(21:30) Is To-Do list good or bad? List based and Scheduling based apps. Schedule
(24:30) Why cant I just write things down in a list? – Priorities change, times/scheduling is also important to conside
(28:00) How do I prevent over-scheduling? Hyper-Scheduling is an extension of GTD.
- First: roughly Schedule what you want to do. Move lower priority to another day
- 2nd: more important stuff on top of the list – use AutoSchedule – remember things will change during a day
- 3rd: if extra time or less you can quickly shift tasks in the app –
- 4: if you have set a time for your task you will not over schedule (at least not as much since you estimate time for your task)
