Also, Things imports reminders to your Inbox view, so you don’t have to look at other apps besides Things to manage your day.
Events import from Apple Calendar into your Today and Upcoming views. Merely looking at my stuff in Things gives me this sense of zen, which is a feature in itself. For example, if a tag you’ve defined isn’t used on any task in a particular view, you won’t see the filter for it on the top of the list. The app gets out of your way and doesn’t clutter the UI with anything you’re not using. Things won the 2017 Apple Design Award for a good reason. Omnifocus, another super popular GTD app in the space, is a behemoth of features–though Things isn’t exactly cheap–and seemed a bit over-powered for me, someone just trying out the system.įeatures of Things I liked over Todoist (though they are almost at parity): My setupįor me, it really came down to Todoist vs. When I started, I wanted to see someone walk through their whole day and weekly review and tell me what apps they use, when, and why. I’ve found that many of the most popular to-do list tools don’t adhere strictly to the GTD framework and so your setup will likely require multiple applications and a bit of creativity to get working. This is a piece intended for other people who find themselves in the same situation: Eager to use Allen’s system and all of the benefits that it promises (less stress, a state of always working on the most important thing, more consistency, etc.), but looking for a good digital setup and a demonstration of the workflow. GTD is very compelling, but I’ve found it difficult to implement well. 
I recently read his book as well as a bit of supplementary material for a concise recap (Allen throws many different lists, artifacts, and frameworks at the reader and so it’s sometimes hard to keep it all straight). I’m experimenting with the Getting Things Done (GTD) system by David Allen because it’s one of the most popular productivity frameworks I haven’t previously explored. You can experience what the martial artists call a “mind like water” and top athletes refer to as the “zone,” within the complex world in which you’re engaged…” “…There is a way to get a grip on it all, stay relaxed, and get meaningful things done with minimal effort, across the whole spectrum of your life and work.
I like this pic because of the succulent.
