In a planned way, maintaining a regular routine is a stress-free way to work out success. Right now you are looking at this article by grabbing this page of 'TechnoWorld' in your hand, but if you have other ideas in mind, spend some time focusing on only one thing! When the focus is on this article, read the first sentence again. Four key words are important - planning, regularity, success and stress.
We have all become multi-tasking these days. We do not focus on only one topic at a time. Thus, it is the technology of the wind. Due to technology we can do many things at a time.
For example, a brother who previously owned a lorry of vegetables had to save customers who came to buy vegetables on his lorry. Now he can expand his business by taking orders over the phone and starting delivery of home-grown vegetables in the surrounding flats. If vegetarians can do that, then professionals with a much greater understanding of the new technology tools will be able to expand their business worldwide.
In addition, success is most beloved. That is why we often carry out work outside Gaza. New tools of new technology add more weight to this. If we have taken a smartphone to search for something to work on, there would have to be a notification of a new post on Facebook or a look at WhatsApp and from there it would be so far ahead on the Internet rugs that the original work on the hands would be left out.
Time is the same for everyone. If we cannot properly plan our work and work hours, we cannot maintain regularity then tensions arise and as a result the success which is felt in the hands of others is eliminated.
That is why when technology is increasing our load on the one hand, we cannot move without putting all of our brain's burden on technology. To do this, proper management of the tasks we need to do is very important. We can find a number of apps or services to help with this.
If you want, you can do task management remotely using Google or Apple calendars on your smartphone. But if something seems to be missing in its features then you may want to look at the apps that facilitate the to-do list.
Before looking at such apps, we need to understand the fundamentals of the world-renowned 'Getting Things Done' (GTD) method for task management.
What Is The 'Getting Things Done'
In 2002, a management consultant named David Allen wrote a book called "Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity," which was later translated into 28 languages and became an international best-seller book. Then GTD became a very popular task management method.
The first issue at the root of this method is capture - capture whatever comes to mind, save it in some way and then remove its load from the brain. We often complain that we do not remember anything when it comes to computers and smartphones. The phonebook has all the numbers stored so people have forgotten the home office or spouse's numbers, many even have to open the phonebook if anyone asks for their number! But in reality, all the baskets of guilt we put on technology make us escape.
In fact, it is important to remember any work, not how it is important to remember the work.
Earlier, people used to carry small pockets with diaries, and any important thing was immediately brainstormed. Now there is no diary in the pocket but a smartphone, so take advantage of it! Instead of engaging in a complaint that 'technology is worthless, memory is low', the task of capturing and remembering important issues will be reduced to the smartphone, so the brain will lose its burden and we will be able to think of other, more important ideas.
Plus, the pocket diary has several limitations, and there are many limits to keeping everything in mind. With the advent of the internet, cloud computing and mobile devices, many of our problems have been eased, so why stay behind when it comes to task management?
New time task management
Keeping a pocket diary, placing a chunky planner on the table or buying a planner at the beginning of the new year is a way to keep track of various important issues and check them out periodically ... all of these methods are outdated.
As computer technology evolves, personal information management and task management issues have been added to it since the advent of personal computers. Microsoft's Office program incorporates a program called Microsoft Outlook from the 90s, covering the features of email, calendar, task manager, contact manager, note taking, journal, etc.
Then in 2004, on the Internet called 'Remember the Milk', there was perhaps the first serious attempt to provide a service that centered on a list of required tasks, such as a to-do list. The service, developed by two Australian web developers, has become very popular worldwide.
The concept of the to-do list became more popular after the era of the Internet in mobile, as it was possible to add a task to a list and perform a task check from anytime, anywhere. Google first tried to assign Simple Task Manager to its Gmail program and calendar itself, and then tried to make Gmail the only two-to-one manager with the Inbox service (which also took some time!).
Whether you are a student dying to get your homework done, an executive working on a variety of projects or assignments, or a retired person who is aiming to complete the savings target throughout the year at the end of the financial year - a digital to-do list can work for anyone. Is.
You select the service you need
While e-mails and to-do lists are closely linked today, when it comes to top to-do list apps, instead of a giant company like Microsoft, Google or Apple, startups like Wonderlist (wunderlist.com), Tuduist ( service names like todoist.com), Anyido (or any.do) or Remember the Milk (rememberthemilk.com) sound more.
Of all, the WonderList service developed by a German company so far was probably the most popular. That's why Microsoft's company turned its attention to it and Microsoft took over the service in 2015. Then the same team hired and started developing their to-do app. However, the WonderList service was so feature rich at the time that Microsoft's new Savvy To-Do app couldn't withstand it.
So most users of WonderList have been using WonderList for a while now, but now Microsoft has made major changes to its To-Do app, and in May 2020 has decided to terminate WonderList altogether. Users of WonderList will be able to import all their data from WonderList into Microsoft To-Do with one click. Of course there are still some special features of WonderList that are missing in Microsoft To-Do. But we can expect these shortcomings to rectify in the next two to three months.
Of course, every such service or app has a special feature. If you want to be free from the hassle of doing all the day-to-day tasks you need to remember, then adopting one such app (and then using it seriously!) Can really make life stress-free!
Step-by-step use of a to-do app
Be it school homework, business tasks or monthly bills, annual savings, insurance premiums, etc. Creating a systematic list for everyone using a good two-to-do list app will keep you in the eye of important tasks and clarity on when to work. There will be.
Two to four aspects are the most important of any good to-do list app. The ability to create lists according to the type of work, the ability to group lists that can be placed under a single heading, the convenience of reminders and the hashtag or labeling feature.
If you are a businessman and have created client-to-client lists for different clients, you can add hashtags like #meeting to different tasks. Then, if you search this hashtag you will be able to see the list of different clients, but all the tasks for meeting.
You have to be a little creative to prepare the to-do lists to suit your needs, but the structure will be ready exactly then you will start working only after turning a glance at the to-do list every morning and planning the evening, the next day. That's what success requires!
1. Installing the Microsoft Today app If you have a free Microsoft account, you will be asked to log in with your e-mail address or phone number. A new free account can be opened from here.
2. You can open this account by simply entering your phone number or e-mail address, choosing a new password. The OTPs that are selected will prove our identity. Please choose a new password.
3. Now we will be given different lists to make a to-do list. You can add new listings whenever you want. You can create groups of similar types if you want.
4. On the home screen of the app, all the tasks that are marked as 'important', the tasks that are marked as 'important', the tasks that are given a specific date, etc. can be viewed in different ways.
5. At any time, you can add a new task by clicking on the plus below the screen. In addition, it can be determined at what time it is to be completed. Hashtags can also be used when adding a task.
6. An important aspect of To-Do App is the reminder. With it, we can leave the responsibility of reminding ourselves of this thing, rather than just remembering it, by setting a reminder.
7. Many of the tasks we have to do daily, or every week, month, or year may be repetitive (mobile bills, annual premiums, etc.). Here you can decide when to replicate the task.
8. You can share an entire list, family or office with another person (they need to have an account in this app). By sharing, you'll be able to decide who gets to work, once you're done.
Although two-to-one apps are safe, it can only be used as a raw listing. Do not keep bank account, policy number etc.
