“Work events are synced from my work Google calendar using org-gcal, so yes, I do attend all work meetings. Other events are personal (birthday, bills, etc) or recurring chores and if I do not have time to do them I reschedule them to be reminded later. I check the TODO items daily and try to do them, sometimes I fail to do them. But the list is there to make sure I have them stored somewhere safe and I won’t miss any important note or TODO.” (source)
Don’t let your todos compete and win over your habits
“Keeping habits separate from my long list of todos has been helpful for me. Habits are the good things I must do for myself every day. No postponing allowed because “I have too many other things on my TODO list”.”
