Carl's Project Management Anecdote
- Carl Pullein uses Evernote for big projects like writing books, not Todoist.
- Todoist only holds a simple task like "continue writing book" while most details live in Evernote.
Tasks vs. Project Clarity
- Having all tasks in a manager like Todoist doesn't mean better productivity.
- Important projects typically live mostly outside Todoist in notes and references, not detailed to-dos.
Use Todoist for Commitments
- Use Todoist primarily to track commitments and daily routines to avoid forgetting them.
- Reserve detailed notes, brainstorming, and creation work for apps like Evernote or Keynote.
