Re: How I Use OmniFocus

I've used dozens of different task management softwares in the past few years. I used all of them for a few days/weeks and then…

This article finally made me understand what my problem was, and how should I fix it. I bought OmniFocus for Mac, iPhone and iPad ($40, $20 and $20, respectively. It used to be $80, $20 and $40, so it's a bargain now!) and must say that I'm super happy with it.

I'm fairly confident that this time around, I will be able to adapt GTD workflow. Contexts, Projects, Perspectives and Focus is what I always needed. I have projects that spawn multiple "contexts". In Things.app, things would go messy and the cost of maintaining my task manager would be more than its benefit.

But I think OmniFocus's workflow (or GTD's, rather) would prevent that. I hope so.
