Saying Goodbye To OmniFocus

October 18, 2018October 18, 201810 Comments

One of the key things for any productivity system is that you have to trust it. For me, the center of that system has been OmniFocus. To say it has run my life over the past 4 years is an understatement, so it was a no-brainer to purchase OmniFocus 3 when it was released for … Continue reading Saying Goodbye To OmniFocus

Workflow Changes with OmniFocus 3

September 11, 2018September 11, 20188 Comments

Multiple tags first came to OmniFocus 3 for iOS in May of this year. I hoped that multiple tags would mean drastic improvements to my workflow, but with most of my Omnifocus work done on a Mac, I was stuck waiting until tags also came to OmniFocus for the Mac. As of last Friday, I … Continue reading Workflow Changes with OmniFocus 3

Omnifocus 3 and Multiple Tags

May 30, 2018Leave a comment

Omnifocus plays such a major role in my life, so with Omnifocus 3 for iOS being released today, it only seemed fitting to write about it. I’ve only had a short amount of time to play with it, but I’m already envisioning new ways to improve my workflow. Arguably one of the most sought-after features … Continue reading Omnifocus 3 and Multiple Tags

A Simple Solution for Integrating Goals into Omnifocus

January 3, 2018January 3, 20187 Comments

Photo by Cathryn Lavery on Unsplash As each year wraps up, I, like many, start thinking about my goals. What did I set out to accomplish for the year? How did I do? Admittedly, I did pretty well, successfully completing 12 of my goals for 2017. But there were equally as many that I didn’t … Continue reading A Simple Solution for Integrating Goals into Omnifocus

Omnifocus Project Templates with Keyboard Maestro

September 21, 2016September 21, 20165 Comments

Two years ago, I wrote a post about using checklist templates in Omnifocus. It’s one of the most popular posts I’ve written on the site, but, honestly, I never really felt like having a folder of stalled projects that I could duplicate was all that great of a solution. Not only did they add visual … Continue reading Omnifocus Project Templates with Keyboard Maestro

My Current Omnifocus Workflow

May 20, 2016June 7, 20183 Comments

With my project and context organization out of the way, I figured it would be helpful to explain how I’m actually using Omnifocus to get things done (or at least try to get things done). I start every morning by reviewing my calendar in Fantastical. This gives me a good idea of where I need … Continue reading My Current Omnifocus Workflow

Revisiting Context Organization in Omnifocus

May 9, 2016August 25, 20162 Comments

Contexts seem to be a point of contention when it comes to any GTD system. How many should you have? What should they be? How many is too many? A quick look at the countless methods being discussed in the Omnifocus Forums show that there is no single right way for picking contexts, and when you consider … Continue reading Revisiting Context Organization in Omnifocus

Revisiting Project Organization in Omnifocus

April 14, 2016August 25, 2016Leave a comment

A lot has changed in the 2 years since I last wrote about how I organize my projects in Omnifocus. I actually had to chuckle a bit when I looked at the projects I used to have. Things look so much simpler when you compare that list with my list of projects today. Now that … Continue reading Revisiting Project Organization in Omnifocus

Creating a Smart Grocery List in Omnifocus

February 21, 2016August 25, 20163 Comments

Last week, I added an Amazon Echo to my slowly-growing collection of home automation devices. The recently added Spotify integration is what sold me, but within a few days, Alexa, unexpectedly, made herself known as the missing link in how I collect my grocery shopping routine. I’ve written about my set up before, but it’s … Continue reading Creating a Smart Grocery List in Omnifocus

Using Omnifocus 2 – My Workflow

December 9, 2014August 25, 2016Leave a comment

It’s been a bit since my last Omnifocus posts, and I’ve been asked some questions about my general workflow which I seemed to have miseed in my previous posts that went over more of the structure and why I use Omnifocus. Background about life: I’m the coordinator for a university help desk. I manage around … Continue reading Using Omnifocus 2 – My Workflow
