This was great, thanks, I have been researching "how do i get back with my ex boyfriend" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Woniam Loverman Scheme - (do a search on google ) ? Ive heard some incredible things about it and my partner got excellent success with it.

Nice Video clip! Excuse me for the intrusion, I am interested in your thoughts. Have you heard the talk about - Millawdon Preserve Balance Trick (probably on Google)? It is an awesome one off guide for learning how to effortlessly manifest the life of your dreams without the headache. Ive heard some decent things about it and my cooworker after many years got cool results with it.

I am working on refining Asana for my team. I know you love the priemum version. It looks great but since I have a small budget and multiple team members it is not feasible for me to pay per person for each team member. Therefore, I decided to figure out some work arounds for better transparency and management. The issue I have with My tasks is that no one can see them except me and I cannot see anyone elses. I want my team to have a certain level of autonomy to organize their section the way they want to so I created projects for each team member that they are required to tag with their to do list. My admin uses the "my task" layout so I decided to figure out a better way to help her organize her "my tasks". I found this helpful but I will say that I disagree about removing due dates from tasks like "GST return" because these items are due at specific times per year so for those type of things I use a monthly calendar task for our team and for me personally so I can see everything at a glance with the calendar view. I think ideas and future planning is important and if you don't give it a timeline then it just does not get done. I learned this the hard way when I created side projects with my team that NEVER GOT ACCOMPLISHED. They weren't important but I found myself really annoyed at not having timelines attached to all tasks. For the items without due dates, we only use this for non tasks- such as procedures or protocols or staff meeting topics. Items that will never have a due date.

Great video! Thanks! I have messed up my "My Tasks" with sections I called A priority, B priority, errands, etc grouping tasks according to the LearnDoBecome system of where they are done. many don't have due dates, just things I don't want to forget. So am I understanding you correctly in that the "my tasks" can not have sections that I've made, only "today, upcoming and later"?

You can actually create sub-sections within Today, Upcoming and Later by using the keyboard shortcut Tab + N.

Paul, thanks for all your videos. They are so helpful. Can you tell me how you get your tasks to move automatically? I have a recurring daily task that is not showing up in my TODAY section. It seems I have to move everything manually each day. I thought that recurring items or those with today's due date would auto-populate there. Am I missing something?

Hi Lori, have you sorted by 'None' to get the Today, Upcoming and Later sections? Also check the hacks setting that allows you to show or hide recurring tasks (this might be your issue)

forum.asana.com/t/tasks-due-today-not-in-today-tasks/64110 I found this link. I thought I had changed the settings but it turns out that the video does not explain this clearly. The view is "recently assigned". I think this video is out dated with the view. Also according to the link above, the tasks will all go into recently assigned. You have to manually move them into today, upcoming or later. If your tasks are in "later" or "Upcoming" then they will move into the today section but tasks will not auto populate into the today section. There is only an auto move fx for the other 2 categories. I created sub categories so that I understand that Upcoming means- This week and later means sometime after this week. Also, I figured out a cool feature of the "later" section which he didn't talk about. The later section has all of your projects that you create so if you clear out your later section you can see your projects in this view as well as the side panel. I hope this helps

Hey Paul, big fan of your connect. I'm wondering, what if you're assigned a project/task but with no date as the dates are on the subtasks under that task. this still appears on your task list but doesn't really have a due date. where would you put that task?

Well I'd recommend still having a date on the parent task to show when you want the entire body of work to be completed by.

Hi Paul, One thing I have noticed with having the same task appear in multiple projects, is that if the Task is marked for LATER, it will come through to the LATER Section in My Tasks, multiple times, as the LATER section sorts your tasks by projects. So if you have the same task appear in say Projects: CALENDAR, KANBAN & PROJECTS, and that task is marked to LATER in My Tasks, it will actually appear 3 times in LATER. Have you found a way around this? Thanks!
@minor-co
@minor-co 3 жыл бұрын
Yes, you're right. Really, the Later section is meant to be left closed so you don't have to look at or worry about stuff that's coming up later. The beauty of the My Tasks is that the task will move up into Upcoming 1 week before the due date so you don't forget about it.

Hi Paul, great tips, and I love your videos! I have a questions and I can't seem to find my answer so I hope you can help. I shorted out my task's into the three sections as you suggest. Due Today, Upcoming (this week), Due later, and I am great at managing my recently assigned task's, putting them in the correct sections my issue seems to be some task are moving up based on due date while others are still sitting in Due later but yet their Due today. I thought it would automatically move up the sections as the due date comes closer, so all items in my Due Later would move to my Upcoming section when they are a week out and the Tasks in the Upcoming will move into Due Today, this is and isn't working, for some task's they are moving up but I also have some task that I placed into Due Later and they are still sitting their, what am I doing wrong? I thought if I shorted them they would automatically move around based on Due Date.
