In light of the time getting the better of me this past weekend, I am sharing a new productivity app that I've downloaded but not yet tried called 30/30 by Binary Hammer. It is a task list app with a built in timer, allowing you to set up your day's tasks according to the time you have. I've been a compulsive to-do list person for years. I often had literally fifty projects going with staged tasks ready to go at the first opportune moment. Trouble is, I could never get to any of the to do's with the work schedule and health issues I have. Can you say "frustration?" Eventually the to-do list would need to be wiped out (i.e. "revised") in favor of a new list. List-making takes time that could be spent beading! I'd also tried the Pomodoro timer apps, which set a timer for work and breaks from work, throughout the day. While helpful (some of my ADHD students have found this a good app to have) it didn't keep my projects straight.
The 30/30 app seems like a novel way to look at time, and tasks. An essential task EVERY DAY will be to work on artwork! Now, bring on Monday -- it's trash day, recycling day, make birdie muffin day, and work. Let's see what art can happen, too.
What are you going to make today?
