#NIRVANA VS OMNIFOCUS HOW TO#

Supposed to stop by the principal after school to report on my day? Slap that in my calendar as a 15 minute apointment. Meeting with a student after school? Calendar. Staff meeting? On my calendar (and any email reminder gets boomeranged to my Inbox 7 am that morning). I have a class that meets X, Y, and Z times? Goes in my calendar. I make MASSIVE use of my Google calendar. It's primarily for adding or referencing, not for processing: Nirvana also has an app (search Nirvana GTD for IOS) I mostly use when I'm lying down to rest, and think of something I need to add to my tasks.I do NOT recommend it as a stand-alone system. That, plus Nirvana, is what works for me.

For more help on how to get them most out of it, look at summaries of Allen's 'Getting Things Done' system.

For emails I get with tasks (not just reminders I boomerang those). Pretty simple and straight forward for tracking tasks. Nirvana (GTD productivity software) - this is my new winner. For when I just need to get things done without being distracted by new emails. Oh boomerang also has a 'Pause inbox' or 'schedule inbox' feature. Need to remember I have a meeting next Thursday? Add it to my Google calendar and Boomerang it for an easy additional reminder layer. If I get an email that there's a fire drill next week (or whatever), I can boomerang it to show up in my Inbox THAT morning, when the reminder is useful, instead of now, when I can't do anything about it. If your email is Google/Gmail account, get Boomerang. Here's what I'm using to try to stay on top of a crazy year
