Todoist as your personal dispatcher

Forward emails to Todoist, add a verb-first task, and apply labels like ‘deep work’ or ‘five-minute’ to triage. Filters create a calm, focused list that respects your energy and your calendar reality.

Finding rhythm with Trello’s Kanban

Trello’s columns visualize flow: To Do, Doing, Waiting, Done. Add checklists for definition of done, set due dates, and integrate Butler automations to move cards after review. Share your favorite power-up combo below.

Asana and ClickUp for cross-team visibility

Map goals to tasks, link dependencies, and use timelines to spot collisions before they happen. In ClickUp, custom statuses and views let design, engineering, and operations collaborate without forcing one workflow on everyone.

Deep Focus: Freedom, Forest, Focusmate, and Pomodoro

Cutting digital noise with Freedom

Freedom blocks distracting sites and apps across devices, helping you enter flow without temptation. Pair blocks with a clear task and a timer, and you’ll find urges fade while momentum builds naturally.

Body doubling with Focusmate

A quiet partner on video for fifty minutes can transform procrastination into progress. Many remote pros report starting dreaded tasks sooner when someone else simply witnesses the work begin and continue.

Pomodoro for Slack-heavy days

Try 25-minute focus sprints with five-minute breaks, muting Slack during sprints and batch-checking messages on breaks. This rhythm keeps collaboration alive while defending the cognitive depth big tasks demand.

Integrations and Automation: Notion, Zapier, Slack, and Beyond

Turn Notion into a workspace hub: databases for projects, tasks, and notes, plus linked views filtered by today, this week, or team. Embed calendars and dashboards to reduce app hopping and cognitive load.

Integrations and Automation: Notion, Zapier, Slack, and Beyond

Use Zapier to send completed tasks from Todoist into a Notion log, trigger Toggl projects from new Trello cards, or archive meeting notes automatically. Start small, test triggers, and celebrate the minutes saved.

Integrations and Automation: Notion, Zapier, Slack, and Beyond

Route only essential alerts to Slack channels. Convert messages to tasks with shortcuts, and schedule Do Not Disturb during focus blocks. Tell us your smartest Slack automation and we’ll feature top tips.

Review, Reflect, Improve: RescueTime and Weekly Retros

RescueTime categorizes activity so you can spot over-collaboration or under-indexed focus. Look for patterns, not perfection, then choose a single habit to tweak next week. Share your biggest surprise with us.

Review, Reflect, Improve: RescueTime and Weekly Retros

Block thirty minutes to check time logs, tidy tasks, and plan Monday’s first deep work session. Close open loops, celebrate wins, and schedule recovery. Consistency beats intensity for remote sustainability.
