1st dilemma: paper vs tech Paper pros:

  • gives me a break from screens
  • if I write a to-do list on a memo I can throw it away when I'm done and it doesn't exist anymore :) It feels good to me.
  • helps me "visualize" things better. If I start making random lists and write down ideas I find it easier to make connections

Tech pros:

  • Not wasting paper and money!
  • People wouldn't be able to read my stuff
  • Easier for me to write something down if I'm out.
  • would allow me to take notes on whatever (ideas, casual notes during daily life, reading notes) and have it all in one place, I can't carry on hundreds of notebooks

So I'm probably more about going all tech...

But here's what I need, more or less:

  • daily routine, I don't want to keep writing it down over and over
  • visual tracking of my daily tasks. I want to see what I've done.
  • casual things that have to be done: laundry, cleaning, going to the vet
  • lists: grocery, things I need to buy someday...
  • don't want to make a mess with these lists though... When I'm done I want to delete those tasks.

I've been using Notion and Tweek for a while. Notion only for note taking, in the simplest way possible because I really don't want to spend time trying to understand how to use templates and other features, if I find useful ones along the way I'm good with that. Probably will leave it at that. Tweek: I loved how simple it is and how it makes you make lists for every day of the week, has a calendar view too and lets you add some other lists too. But I have to write my daily tasks over and over... Also I feel like I loose track of it, I can't view the progress in a visual way.
