Reader Tip: Experience with Clear Task Manager for iOS

This material written by our reader Sergei Belous. He just could not help but share their feelings for the simple minimalist list Clear :) tasks

I think that this list is familiar to many, if not, then here review on Layfhakere. In this article I want to tell the world about how I use this excellent tool. I hope that these notes will help you, too, become more organized and bring their cases to completion.

Before Clear I've tried many, a great many tools for doing things, but none of them have caught on. Only Clear <3. At the very least, to be honest, all the time use Clear (and I use them since its appearance on the iOS), I really became dependent on this application ...

The Clear I have the following lists:

The first 6 of them are permanent and unchangeable. The remaining (in this case - achieve) appear and disappear depending on the need at a given time. Let's take a closer look at each of them.

an important

Here, as the name implies, it holds the most important things, the failure of which may result in negative consequences in the near future. Let's just say, this is what you should pay attention in the first place at the opening of Clear. Moreover, it is not necessarily the task to be performed here and now. This is something that should not be overlooked. After the assignment is made and marked out into oblivion.

Case today

This list shows the case today :-) In the evening, before going to bed I sit and fill this list the next day. Just'm doing what should be done - call Leray, or meet with a school friend. This is not the most important (most important on the list of important) things, but that must be run today. Accordingly, if a task is not finished today, it is automatically moved to tomorrow... Of course, occur during day tasks that just need to do today, are recorded in the list.

The case for a week

In fact, it is from this list and are prepared to do on a daily basis today. Himself the to-do list for the week I usually compose the Friday before this very week. Again, to the extent there are any problems, they immediately put on this list.

Purchases

Yes, Clear completely replaced me as purchases or managers like Buy a loaf and so on. At some point in time I realize that I need to buy something. Immediately I bring this something to shopping list. For example, I cook dinner and see that the end olive oil that it will last only a couple of times. I immediately, before I forget, and open the Clear zanoshu shopping list "olive oil".

It's simple. The next time you visit the supermarket, I always have formed a list of what to buy, and I clearly He should never buy anything extra (well, sometimes I add a couple of points in the supermarket, but not the essence :-).

Of course, this does not mean that if I want ice cream, I immediately'll put ice cream in this list, go to the store, buy an ice cream and then delete from the list, no. This is a global list. He seemed himself almost magically formed between visits to the supermarket, where he performed.

books

Now I am in Clear list of books that I have read and want to read / read. Again, everything is simple - learn about interesting book - add to Clear. Read - I noted as completed. The only thing I have not cleared this list, thus I always have the story read. Sometimes it's nice to see how the list is growing :-)

ideas

Once bedtime I got the idea to write an article about how I use the Clear, I just wanted to share the experience with everyone, to tell how much useful this tool to me. I opened the Clear and raised the idea in the corresponding list. And as always, as soon as there is more or less an interesting idea that would like to implement, but does not realize this point in time, then I bring it to the list. Many may say that Clear is ill-suited for this purpose and have better tools - but I do not think so. No, of course I believe there are tools, but it is enough Clear. Moreover, even if the two words to describe the idea does not work, and you need to topstitch couple of common proposals, no problem:

Now, for example, preparing for the summer, I made a list of his own achievements. List achivok. It works on the same principle as described above. Achieved something - noted as completed. Wanted to achieve something - added to the list. Again, a great pleasure to look at the list of achievements achivok :-)

Something like that. I clear my replacement... but almost. If I am a project, I again add a list with the name of the project, the task t. D.

In general, I use Clear for 100%! Plus, the fact that it is synchronized with the OSX version is strongly encouraged. And how do you use Clear? Share! One head is good, more is better!
