So this is what i am doing right now and it works great: It made no sense, i wanted a list to quickly look through and yet have notes to go deeper when needed to. But it was too complicated, you would still have to look through one note for one task. So i started searching and found different user blogs and how they use evernote as a GTD. Also, i stopped capturing every website i found interesting with evernote because i would have a lot of notes in my notebooks without any good organization and it would mess up my notebooks (although i had several for different topics). I also tried programs aNote and ecretlist but they didn't really ease my taks neither.

However, having two systems was kinda redundant but evernote had no real alternative for a task managment system. I also tried a lot of different GTD (get things done) software but i ended up not using them as the outlook tasks together with the calendar were plain but efficient.Īfter i started using evernote for fun snapping websites here and there and taking screenshots i realized that it was a good addition so i used evernote as a parallel application for my things to remember and GTD.

Through Evernote i was able to organize my life much more efficient and plainly and i'd like to share some thoughts that might help you too.īefore Evernote, i used the Outlook tasks with the due options to sort my errands. I've been using Evernote for 2 years now and since 1 year as a premium member.

My name is Ali, i'm a medical doctor from germany doing a postdoc at the University San Diego California right now.
