I also want a place to document things I want to research later. I need a place to save everything and document the importance of each task. Even then…more emails and queries keep pouring in. I need to block off time in the week to sit and clear everything out. In my earlier system of keeping a gMail inbox as my to-do list, the challenge is that I’m anxious when there is something left behind in my inbox. This system works…but it’s obvious that I still need a basic mechanism to track what I need to do. It offers me the ability to archive emails until I get to work…or home…or forward to a future date. 🙂 Lately I’ve moved away from my use of labels and folders in gMail and started using Inbox by Google. I try to achieve inbox zero, and when there is nothing in my inbox…I have nothing to do. For the most part, my to-do list is my gMail mailbox. My perfect solution for the to-do list is something that is minimal, works well on mobile, and connects to the other apps that I currently use. One key component that I have yet to conquer is the to-do list. I read all about lifehacking to find opportunities to work smarter. I spend a lot of time trying to figure out better ways to work. This post is also being submitted for a badge.

This post documents my thoughts about the use of Trello as Kanban as detailed by Doug Belshaw. TL DR: This post discusses my continued exploration of a to-do system.
