This may not be helpful, but for me scheduled timeboxes are not quite the right solution. The real problem is capacity management, so the ideal solution would be something that makes it clear how much space a commitment occupies without simultaneously forcing me to decide when I will do it.
I know there are some who probably insist that I’m trying to have my cake and eat it too…
- Lightbody 5y agoI hear ya and I understand what you’re getting at. We’re working on some ideas that might address it, but as you already surmised it’s a bit of a challenge because the two desires are at odds with each other. One way we (somewhat) solve for your desire today is that we schedule out all the stuff but then make it fairly easy to decide what to do just-in-time without wrecking the whole schedule. It’s not perfect but it’s been working for some of us.

It’s not perfect but it’s been working for some of us. I just tried the service and my immediate reaction was similar to above. I can't just context switch on a whim. It feels super strange to have a list of similar priority things just given hard times in my calendar, even for things like exercise. I do want something much more just-in-time where I am constantly picking from a set of boxes, and urgent tasks and deadlines are managed.
