Planning system guide
Put each commitment in the tool that matches its job.
Tasks, calendar events, and reminders solve different problems. A clear system preserves those differences while showing them together.
A clear path
From scattered information to one useful decision.
Bring the context together
Choose the next action
Adjust when the day changes
What this guide helps you decide
- Tasks hold flexible work.
- Events reserve fixed time.
- Reminders return attention at the right moment.
- Review all three in one daily context.
Use tasks for flexible actions
A task describes work that must be done but can often move. Give it a duration, priority, and enough context to begin.
Use calendar events for fixed time
An event represents a commitment to a specific time, often involving another person or a location. Avoid using the calendar as a storage place for every possible task.
Use reminders for attention
A reminder brings a detail back at the right moment. It is useful for a prompt that might otherwise be forgotten, even when it does not require a full work block.
