I adore this. I have a scrambly ADHD brain that has been trying to organize my personal TODOs and many, many lists. This saves me so much time from starting to look into a software option, it taking too long to get the concept, and then giving up altogether. I bounce around between a lot of different techniques, and I also tend to “get used to” a technique ….and basically abandon it after months or a year. I am interested in Asana and Todoist, but maybe the variability of ClickUp is exactly what I need. Thank you for the information!!! Hopefully I will try, and hopefully I can get back to you on what works out for me :)

The one thing I’ve been looking for in all of these tools (I have tried Trello and Todoist from your list, but others as well) is a Do This After This kind of task.
To use my house as an example: I want to paint a room, but it has a few old picture holes. If I don’t have time to tackle all of it at once, it’s helpful to break the project into parts:
- buy materials
- patch up the holes
- paint the walls
- put everything back in storage

With most tools, I saw all tasks from all projects and it’s always daunting. All I need to see is the first task: “buy materials” when I’m done with that, the new task shows up (“patch holes”).

I just began using ClickUp and they offer this feature. I’m loving it!

I like the clean look of Todoist, but dependency tasks is where it’s at for me 😀

Yes!! This is exactly why I love Click-Up! I was a bullet journaler, but had to use a ring-bound system so I could reorganize however I wanted (and write tasks 1x, then move them where needed so I could see them at all times, lol). Then I shifted to a digital version using Goodnotes, so I didn't have so much "stuff" & could have access to it all the time. That's worked really well for my personal task management, but I needed something more for my business & working with my team. Click-up has been the perfect fit for that! :D

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I am a Bulletinaire, as you called, and I HAVE BEEN searching like CRAZY for Milanote the past few hours because I briefly worked with it in 2019 as a Product Designer and I absolutely loved it but forgot the name!! My thoughts are kinda messy and I like to take notes everywhere and collect content from all sorts of media and put it in one place altogether, in a moodboard kinda-way. I am going through a career change + organizing my personal hobbies and this software is exactly what I needed to organize all of that. Thank you, thank you, thank you. <3

Well this is my first time to look into project management tools! Wow! 37 yes of my life it’s caught up to me! Finally! Hahah I appreciate this very much! I enjoyed this!

[amyhunt]

I got 3 of 6 correct, and the tools I'd missed were ones I hadn't heard of. But I'm a ClickUp person and I closely match that personality description as someone who has repeatedly changed their organizational system over time. Great video, Layla! This has recently been a point of discussion in my workplace and I'll be sure to share it with others.

[Vallzard]

This is exactly the reason why I love Asana! I love a practical reminder of my daily/weekly/periodic tasks. It's so simple.

[DrFarris]

Love this video so much ❤❤❤❤ looking at all of these now to see which is best

[YounesBahrimusic]

Amazing Video, Saved me hours of comparison and reviews reading. Thank you

[morafilipa]

WOW! I just loved this content and you, Layla! Thank you so muchj, really grateful. You're such an expert and wise human! :D So useful, and so wonderfully and brilliantly done! ❤

[gainesdominique]

I appreciate the way you created this. It made me want to try all of em!

[msannemary]

That was so fun to watch. I've never been a task, agenda, journaling person. However depending of what is ahead or the project I'm working on, I will find the system that works for me. I believe that's why I felt in love with clickup. There are numerous ways to get organized but in a structured way.
I couldn't get Notion & Trello with my brain. In the past I also played with todoist for our groceries management 😊. So in the nutshell, I'm the personality 6 friend

[chillwavemusic]

Thank you four useful advice.
This is for the first time I met Paper journaling approach and your idea is most powerful - really our choice highly depended of our precipitous background!
Thank you a lot!

[lukeMac]

I migrated from bullet journaling to Notion, so you nailed it for me!

[SignedBlake]

I love how you laid this out - instant follow❤

[dao.]

very good synthesis of all of them! thanks a lot!

[juniper]

I agree with finding something that works with your original working style. I love lists, different visualizations and not needing to rewrite the same items in different sheets. I use ClickUp and love it.

[lynettediaz]

I LOVED this video. I think this is the best way to match digital tools to your needs. Thank you for the breakdown! I love paper planner and have used both weekly and daily planners, I'm gravitating toward trying clickup for figuring out how to get the most out of Notion.

[graytonw]

Todoist user here. I agree that although it does have some collaboration features, it's best for personal use and for the "Agenda" class users. As a prior Trello user though, I think Todoist could also replace that tool for the Sticky Meisters. Trello's strength is its Kanban interface, but Todoist can now also be used for that layout in addition to its project-based view. And Todoist's desktop/mobile app makes it even easier to use. Not a Trello basher, I just felt that as a freelancer, Todoist had the flexibility.

I got notion and milanote right!, another one I would recommend for the bullet journalist and spiral notebook users: taskade (the one with the sheep on the icon)
BUT: when you described clickup, after mentioning todoist, I felt like I was seeing the world for the first time haha. I think it might be EXTREMELY useful for me, so I'm going to try it right now! thanks! :)
