It's a subjective preference.
I have tried Trello in the past over an extended period, but it didn't motivate me to keep using it.
Elsewhere, I have talked about solving disorganization by knowing the quirks of one's own mind.
One of my quirks was internet distractions, and at one point, it got so bad that I'd simply keep my router switched off and use an inconvenient mobile for any research. No easy internet=less distractions, but also no trello.
Another quirk is that I like to write down my planning analyses and thoughts, sometimes in multiple paras. They help me to plan and correct plans. Trello or mind mapping interfaces are not convenient to satisfy that kind of quirk. TXT is ideal for it.
- baxtr 8y agoThanks for your answer. I use something similar but in Trello. It is ok for me. BTW: your method reminded me of this article which influenced my thinking around self organizing https://www.jotform.com/blog/success-without-motivation/ https://www.jotform.com/blog/success-without-motivation/
- lovelearning 8y agoThat article really resonates with my thinking, thanks for the link. In the past, my planning used to be guided purely by what ideas I found exciting. Important, but unexciting tasks were deferred or left unattended. My system now allows me to work on tasks even on days when I don't particularly feel like working on them.
