How to remain organised?
Hi everyone,
I'm hoping to get some advice on how to keep organised and what are the best apps or tools to use? I have a number of domains, projects, blogs running and I sometimes feel I lose track on monitoring the projects. For example, being reminded to add new posts once a site's scheduled posts have finished, keeping track of costs of a project etc. Looking forward to your input.

 Attempts at rigid organization have never worked for me, wither a calendar (other than for appointments) or some written plan. I prefer to set tasks;
Immediate can just be a mental list -- a weekly plan. Intermediate goals I just make a directory and make subdirectories -- on a good USB so that it is portable between working machines. I hate filling out forms -- like a chained monkey. I prefer to work with a series of tasks (topics to be explored), objects and notes that I design and personalize. The advantage is in back and forth work and future planning. You can organize your work how you best understand it. |

you got me thinking about this
 Code:
barry@paragon-DS-7:~/temporary/dairy$ mkdir -p $(date +"%Y/%m/%d")/posts barry@paragon-DS-7:~/temporary/dairy$ mkdir -p $(date +"%Y/%m/%d")/coding barry@paragon-DS-7:~/temporary/dairy$ mkdir -p $(date +"%Y/%m/%d")/phonecalls barry@paragon-DS-7:~/temporary/dairy$ mkdir -p $(date +"%Y/%m/%d")/appointments barry@paragon-DS-7:~/temporary/dairy/2017/11$ cd /home/barry/temporary/dairy/2017/11/14 barry@paragon-DS-7:~/temporary/dairy/2017/11/14$ ls -1F appointments/ coding/ phonecalls/ posts/ barry@paragon-DS-7:~/temporary/dairy/2017/11/14$ ** here is a better version Code:
mkdir -p $(date +"%Y/%m/%d")/appointments && touch $_/appointments.txt /home/barry/temporary/dairy/2017/11/14/appointments/appointments.txt Then to find something Code:
barry@paragon-DS-7:~/temporary/dairy/2017$ grep -rni 'smith' 11/14/appointments/appointments.txt:1:John Smith 10:00 am barry@paragon-DS-7:~/temporary/dairy/2017$ this is interesting using calc could be tweaked ... this makes a directory structure for the whole month. |

you don't get organized over night, you must have a proper approach of doing things within long term and that's how you become more efficient and organized.

i recommend searching for that topic on youtube. then maybe search and watch related videos. if that doesn't help, start watching the trending videos. if you still can't get organized, you have a problem wasting too much time on youtube.
seriously tho, there's a lot of good time management videos on youtube. #porncms

Maybe excel spreadsheets could help in this task.

- focus on one thing and one thing only - whatever comes up, handle it now (I know it is the opposite of the first, but if the first is in progress, set yourself a reminder so as to not forget about the second task) - use a calendar tool (to know when something needs to be done and by what time) + reminders (if you're going to delay, just like in point 2, put a reminder some time in advance from the deadline, so that you have time to finish it) - know your goals, break them down into small steps, try to create a fixed timetable (for example: 9:00 AM breakfast, 10:00 AM Gym, etc). This will become automatic to you in time - try to automate or delegate processes, so that you can focus on other stuff and remain organized (clutter is not good) - learn to say NO to stuff that doesn't help you achieve any of your goals For me, a calendar and prioritisation techniques (like saying NO to crap) help remain pretty much organized. You might feel like a robot until you get used to this stuff, but in the mid-term you should be able to get a hang of it and still enjoy spontaneous life
