Tips & Tricks Tuesday: Keeping a “chill” view

Looking over everything can be a little overwhelming, which is why you make a bunch of lists. But what if you don’t want to look at all your lists even?

This week’s tip suggests two ways to keep things “chill”: collapsing what you don’t need to see in the left navigation bar and/or using Favorites to pay attention to just the things you want to see. Sounds pretty… cool!

I’ve lately taken to collapsing my lists and tags (along the side nav), just so I’m focusing on the stuff that needs to get done that day. It’s an easy way to bring my attention where it needs to be.

dave.liao adds:

Same! I keep a few “Favorites” like urgent projects, and a “Today Only” list (to hide overdue items).

“chill” is a great way to describe a minimal RTM sidebar. 😂
