Focus is the coolest @raycast.com feature they've released in a while.

~ 2 minutes, and I've got a Keyboard Maestro macro that starts a focus session from my selected OmniFocus task!

I'd recommend trying to completely quit your chat and email apps for at least a portion of your day.

Huge lever for not being driven by latest and loudest.

If your to-do list is feeling overwhelming, there are lots of strategies you can use to make it more useful and less stressful.

You could also just do some shit from the list. You'll feel better, I promise!

After becoming a dad, I narrowed down my hobbies to just gardening. Getting my hands in the soil and nourishing my family with food I’ve grown is incredibly fulfilling.

#NoDig makes it super easy to get started, and Charles Dowding is a lovely creator to learn from!

If you’re using due dates in your to-do list, it’s likely for the wrong reason.

What would happen if you went in and cleared that field out entirely?

The closer you are to the “nothing” end of the spectrum, the more dire your use of due dates.

Resetting your computer and starting from scratch is a great way to get rid of the cruft that accumulates over time!

I think I'm going to make a habit of doing this once per year.

Koan #26

“I’m smart!”
“Why?”
“I flipped this coin, and it came up heads.”
“So?”
“I wanted it to be heads.”
“Flip it again.”
“No, I’m done with that.”
“What will you do now?”
“Tell other people how to flip coins.”

And the student was enlightened.

So far, quite underwhelmed by the new Team book from David Allen.

Waiting for the same kind of "Aha" moment I had when I originally read #gettingthingsdone, and it hasn't happened yet.

Maybe not the intention?
