The format of storing the information should allow me to access from different apps if possible.I adopted markdown during the last year, so it was an obvious choice. I need it stored in an “open” format and the obvious one is text files. This means that my information shall not be stored in a proprietary format. My information needs to be safe and perennial, so I must be sure that the format of my information will not become obsolete.I adopted recently the PARA method of organizing my data, so the app shall be compatible with this method for organizing information.I manage projects for clients and family, so I need to be able to refer to people.The use of keywords seems obvious to categorize the notes and help find them later.Quick access to my information, so a search function is a must-have.Journaling for keeping track of information and progress on the projects I follow.The system shall include as few apps as possible while still filling all the functionalities. I began by creating a list of mandatory criteria that my system must fulfill. I had to design a better productivity system for my activity.
Recently, I decided to simplify my digital life and rationalize it.
The lockdown forced most of us to think about our organization, even if I was used to working from home for the last seven years. In addition, I used agenda, bear, Ulysses (I still use it to write articles) and scrivener (I stopped using it recently, I replaced it with Ulysses) for my note-taking activity. I was taking a chance with all the new productivity apps that was released and I can put my hand on. I used things 3, todoist, Omnifocus, asana, trello, reminders, good task, tick tick, 2do, To-do. My past relationship with productivity appsĪs far as I remember, I was always searching for the system that will help me manage my activity. This system must run and synchronize smoothly on all my devices: mac, iPhone and iPad. I cannot do all this scheduling and managing in my head, I need a system to support my activities. I manage at any moment about 25 projects, most of them are small and takes a few days and a few are long-term ones. This means that I manage several projects for different clients daily in addition to my personal projects and try to fit my personal life inside the big picture. I am also a project manager with a long experience of large project recovery (people call me when things go wrong, and I help them get their project back on tracks) and an industrial quality adviser.
I am a freelance consultant, expert in theory of constraints, a methodology of continuous improvement and problem-solving.
