I think the comment you made about routines not moving your life forward is key. I've always thought of them as treading water. You have to do them or you drown, but they won't by themselves save you (or move you forward, or get you to a destination). Good Video.

[justfelicia]

Great clarification. The reasoning behind what to do is needed to do it. Without it, we won't commit to it.

Thanks for another great video Carl, the board view definitely makes it so much easier and at-a-glance user friendly.

[tonyspranger]

Loved the idea of using boards view! Thanks for all the insights, tips and instruction.

[krys]

Awesome idea to switch the Routines view to the board. I forgot about that option! Thank you.

I really appreciate this video. Something I've struggled with is since I'm not very good with simple routines at the moment (doing laundry daily or washing the dishes, wiping down the counters, etc.) I have all of those habits in ToDoIst but they are overwhelming the number of tasks in ToDoIst. I've been thinking about removing some. maybe I should keep a list in my note taking application and slowly add them in to build the routines.

I also use Apple Reminders for my routines with a similar setup. I do however, set up Areas of Focus in Todoist in this format. This has been very helpful to stay on track and removes the overwhelm.

[devarni]

Carl, If I understand correctly, routines are basically habits (or should become habits)? All other tasks belong to an area of focus?

[OldCampos]

I'm going to implement this in Apple Reminders. Was thinking of testing in Microsoft To Do, but since I have all Apple devices, I think it would be more useful and reliable in Reminders.

[andrewethanhirsch]

Great! - Totally Helpful. - Thanks so much.

[drdentrepair]

This was helpful. I use apple reminder but have pretty much the same set up

[ScottKreisberg]

Hi Carl, I hit a 300 task limit in my routines project in Todoist and i was curious if you have ever hit that limitation yourself and if so how best to handle it? Thank you

[daviddelgadovendrell]

every or every! ? What do you prefer for Routine or Recurring? (I'm not concerned about Karma.... but....)

[robertbrewer]

I see in "This Week" the recurring areas of focus - are these just "routines" that populate into "This Week" and is it a special filter?
