How I Use Todoist As A Creative To Manage My Work And Get More Done
Imagine having a system that allows you to find and focus on your most important tasks easily.
Everything is accounted for and you find it a pleasure ticking off tasks as you complete them.

Diving Into PARA
Before we dive into the nitty gritty I want to give you some background on how this current system came into being.
After many years of pushing away and not understanding PARA, I’ve finally embraced it in my digital life.

I won’t drone on about it here but let’s just say now that I’m using PARA in my digital life it’s also started to influence how I organize and manage my tasks in Todoist.
What this means is you’ll see elements of PARA in this setup.
Let’s dive in.

As soon as a new task comes to mind I add it to Todoist. All new tasks go straight into the Inbox for processing at a later point.
