Hi there i need some input .
i have own omnifocus but haven’t really use omnifocus due to lack of clarity of what i want .
lately been back again to reorganize the system after knowing what i want .here is my hthought
Project - is the area of life and projects are here ( very clear for me)
Contexts - here i divided in to 4 category ( Plan , Do , Think, Learn ) those 4 category is the main Aim in the daily activites and have subcontext in it .
i have flag the task that has to be done in the next day .
have been using this for few weeks
so when i review it back, although it have flag the task todo, i actually need to grade the priority q1, q2, q3, q4 . in order to filter the task that has been flag .
and i handle lots of things …
can some one help me with this situation ?
Are you flagged the task that MUST be done to meet a deadline?
Or are you flagged the task that you WANT to do?
Priorities are not directly handled with OF. Do you have a “priority” on Plan, Do, Think, and Learn? Can you sort on these categories to set your priorities. For example, all else being equal, is "Do"ing something more important that "Think"ing about something?
I suggest this approach because it is similar to what I use. My contexts are something like …
close
deliver
tidy up
do
prepare
consider
The “priority” is from the top down. All else being equal, I will do everything that is marked “close” before I do anything that is marked “consider”.
I’m also struggling with prioritizing my projects (not tasks) in OmniFocus. At the moment I just have an Excel sheet and prioritize each project with two categories (Urgent and Important) Then I sum up these columns and the project with the highest sum has to be finished first.
What tools do you use for this? Is it possible to sync the project names from OF and the tools you use?
