It’s also good to keep them front of mind as I go about my day. Having today’s remaining due tasks included here is a fallback measure just in case tasks don’t become available before their due date. (I’m using my Tag Tasks Due Today plug-in combined with Keyboard Maestro to tag these each day.) Tasks that are due today are shown under any circumstances, so they’re not subject to the limitations I outlined above. This perspective shows available tasks that are Due Soon (I have this set to 3 days) or remaining items that are due today. Let’s go through the perspectives one at a time. Usually, I want to see all of the remaining checklist items.) This is one I use with my ‘Note to Subtasks’ Plug-In to denote checklists.

Throughout the day, I try to work through these perspectives in order.Īt the end of the day, if the first three perspectives are clear, I’m pretty happy. You can see from the screenshots above that each perspective is assigned a number as its icon. I have the same perspectives set up on my iPhone as widgets: A typical view of my OmniFocus dashboard on my iPhone Almost always, when I’m looking at OmniFocus with a ‘doing’ rather than a ‘planning’ mindset, this is what I’m seeing: A typical view of my OmniFocus dashboard on macOS These are central to my OmniFocus workflow. So, over the coming week, I’d like to concentrate on the more foundational, structural side of things, like projects, tags, and perspectives. That session will focus mainly on the magic of Omni Automation (✨!). In the lead-up to my Learn OmniFocus workflow session, I wanted to share some of the nitty-gritty details of how I manage my tasks with OmniFocus.
