Plan Your Week
This workflow is for those who want to plan their upcoming days or a week ahead. Tasks are shown in sections per each of the upcoming seven days.
Use Shift+Arrow Right
and Shift+Arrow Left
shortcuts to quickly move tasks one day into the future or into the past.
How to add your tasks
There are three ways to create a new task:
- Click the "add" button at the bottom of the menu on the left
- Hover over the name of any section, and the button to add a new task into the section will appear
- Press
A
on the keyboard. Alternatively,CMD+N
(on Mac) andCtrl+N
(on other platforms) work as well.
To quickly schedule any task, select the task in the list and press S
on your keyboard. Learn more about date-based scheduling here.
Prioritization
This workflow features our signature automatic prioritization. Tasks are sorted by their assigned day or date, then by their assigned priority, and lastly by their age. As in other workflows, start working on tasks from the top. If you have trouble getting started on a task, try starting a timer.
To quickly increase a task's priority, use Shift+Arrow Up
keyboard shortcut.
No need to look at tasks that are not relevant now — once you plan the tasks to work on today and tomorrow, collapse Tomorrow
and Later
sections by clicking their name. This works for all sections in all workflows.
The task with the highest urgency will be highlighted in bold in the list as the next task to work on. This can be disabled in the settings.
Estimation
To see the sum of estimates for all the tasks on a particular day, hover over the section name and the total time will show.
