In the past, I struggled to find a way to migrate my project list from OmniFocus to Things because of this. Things 3 only gives you two – Areas and Projects. This gives you several levels of hierarchy to organize your tasks. For traditional projects in the GTD sense (a completable task comprised of more than one action item), they give you sequential and parallel projects (depending on whether actions are dependent on each other.) SALs, parallel projects, and sequential projects can be grouped by folders (typically used for Areas of Responsibility). These most commonly end up being used for tasks related to the ongoing roles of your life (e.g. For one-off tasks, they give you Single Action Lists (SALs). OmniFocus lets you organize tasks in a number of ways. First and foremost, my project list had to change. Migrating to Things wasn’t without its challenges though. A task manager at its heart should help you accomplish tasks, and OmniFocus had led me down a road of managing tasks instead. My mindset around managing tasks, however, seems to have. I still have the most of the same responsibilities and projects, with a few more added (Hello, condo and management position), so my needs haven’t gotten simpler. My experience with Things 3 this time around was a little bit like rereading a book later in life. There’s a lot to love, but there’s also a lot lacking when you’re used to a task manager as powerful as OmniFocus. Many of my gripes with Things 2 have been corrected with Things 3, but Things 3 isn’t perfect just yet. I actually wrote about it on here many years back. I was a Things user before switching to OmniFocus.
#OMNIFOCUS 3 TRIAL#
Before I knew it, I was 2 hours into setting up a trial of Things 3 on my Mac. Within a matter of weeks, it became overly clear that OmniFocus was no longer a joy to use, and I found myself opening it with dread.īeing a natural planner and someone who’s been using OmniFocus to manage every aspect of my life for years, not trusting that system sent me into a spiral of chaos fairly quickly. Maybe it was the constant threat of tags teetering on the line of becoming out of control, struggling to adapt my perspectives in meaningful ways, or maybe it was just a feeling that my projects were staring me down. I can’t really pinpoint where trust in my system started eroding with OmniFocus 3. I have to be honest, never in a million years did I expect that I’d be writing this post. 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 macOS a few weeks ago. For me, the center of that system has been OmniFocus. Just add the FocusGTD quick enry widget to your home screen and you are all set!
