My notes

Five features every good task management system should have:

  1. Reliable - System must be trustworthy
    1. If you don’t trust it, comma you won’t use it.
  2. External - Get tasks out of your head
    1. Don’t rely on memory
  3. Doable - Tasks should be clear and actionable
    1. Asks should require minimal interpretation
    2. It should be glanceable
  4. Exhaustive - there should be only one central place for all tasks
  5. Engaging - System should invite focused work
    1. It should invite You to do Focused Work.
    2. It should not overwhelm or confuse you
    3. Make it so you want to use your system.
  6. Manageable - Simple enough to provide clarity
