This came in the exactly right moment. I didn’t derail because of illness, but because I had too much going on. With an existing IT-based task management You don’t get that clearance in any decent time frame. Really loved You mentioning the “bings” and “dings” our IT bombards us with. We really need to get focus, and all these things don’t help - to be polite…
I was on point and organized, the past six weeks have been very hectic and stressful dealing with family emergency issues and the traveling back and forth. The additional to do’s and including our to do’s, etc….have me off track and not as organized. I have got to get some space and down time to get back on track. Because right now I am feeling somewhat overwhelmed. This episode made me stop and take a breath and realize stressing over everything we have to do won’t get things done.
😳 this is exactly what I need help with right now. How to dig through the piled up backlog overwhelm. Carl: “step one, put the phone down and stop watching CZcams” 😅
Glad to see someone like me that doesn't know their left from rights. Why are we successful people able to grasp new concepts yet cannot do what 99.9% of the population seem to do from a young age.
I love this and is very useful to destress. Once you’ve cleaned up your TO Do’s and have the essentials for the next 7 days, do you transfer what you’ve written on paper to your digital tasks manager? I’m assuming you do to have everything in one place but wanted to some clarity.Thank you Carl for all you share!Greatly appreciated and have followed you for years.
Hi Kyle, at the moment, that does not look like it's possible. It's just a list of templates Todoist have created. As with the Calendar view, I am waiting for it to become a bit more functional before doing a video on it.
@@totallyhuman182 Technically, we have always been able to do that by exporting a project as a CSV file. (When I used this, I had a folder to keep all my templates. Don't use it anymore, though)
I believe that's a security setting in your browser that's causing that (someone else had a similar problem) The direct link is: carl-pullein.thinkific.com/courses/beginners-guide-to-building-your-own-productivity-system

You are absolutely right about getting focused. It does all have to happen right now. All that matters right now is what you are doing right now.
Another great video! Really good advice for when you get derailed by life events.
Thank you. Glad you liked it 🙂

It happens (a lot more than we like). As you say, stressing about everything won't get it done.
Thank you Carl for your tips, I’ll commit.
Thank you 🙂

Ahh yes, but do finish watching this video first 😂
Epic. Thanks for this clear concise guide Carl. 👍
Thank you, John.
Very good advice. A nice simple method to get back on track.
Thank you. Glad you liked it 🙂
I like paper and Calendar. It’s so hard to planning in Reminders, Calender, Notes and paper planer.
One of your best videos yet, Sir! Very helpful after a 2-week illness -- Cheers from Texas !
Thank you, Jeff. Glad it helped. Hope you're feeling better now.
Great approach to doing a necessary reset. For the blue and green---one fountain pen? Or two? Thanks as always!
Hahaha, how did you know? Yes. Two fountain pens. I have three colours inked up. A blue, a green and a red.
Nailed it!

Hahaha YES! My wife makes fun of me for not being confident with my left and right LOL

Great video!
The notes will go to tasks app, is it? Or will you stay viewing this writing at not digital notebook always?
What put in work?
Could please consider doing a course on how to use a paper planner/ franklin planner and todiist
Ooh, that would be an interesting course. I'll certainly add it to my list.
😅If things don't go wrong you are not needed, make a checklist so you have a way to get control back.
Already did everything in 6 mins while you are talking about getting started.
Wow, just what I needed.
Glad to have been able to help. 🙂
can you do a video on their new templates update? Specifically, I'm trying to figure out if/how I can make my own templates. Thanks!

@Carl_Pullein I think if we can make our own, easy to use, project templates, it'll be a game changer for Todoist! Thanks for all your work!

I’ve been looking at Clairefontaine notebooks, but few places show the view of the inside. Is there a name for the specific type you are using?
I'm using a Rhodia A4 Notebook. Here's the full spec: amzn.to/4cMPOV2
@@Carl_Pullein thank you so much for the quick reply
