🤓 MeisterHacks: Weekly Planning with Agenda

Miša Hennin

We've already sung the praises of Agenda but did you know that

Simply add pins for each day of the week and drag your tasks from the left to the day on which you should work on them. It's really that easy to create a personal daily calendar!

I love working like this myself! What makes it so beneficial is that I can add tasks from across different projects that I am working on, also guest tasks, and I can work directly from the agenda, rather than having to jump around from project to project in order to find my tasks in case I am not the one with the main responsibility.

With this organization, I can open up tasks, update them and either reschedule them for another day or remove them from my agenda when I am finished with the task at hand, super helpful with tasks where I am assigned a checklist item, for example. It keeps me on top of my to dos without having to keep duplicate tasks in a separate project. I can only recommend trying to work like this!

Hi, I always start my working day with a first look at the agenda too. And I end the day with a comparison of my online calendar and the next tasks for me.

That way, everything always stays neat and tidy. The priorities of my tasks are then automatically determined by the vertical arrangement of the tasks. In this post @Andrew Lapidus also told about his positive experiences with this method.

I also like the fact that clients whom I have included as guests in a task can see for which day the continuation of the work is planned...even without unnecessary communication about it. So I can only confirm what @Miša and @Line Møller Jensen have described in their posts 😉

Thanks @Miša and @Line Møller Jensen the very intriguing MeisterHack! As Jörg mentioned, I've done a lot of experimentation with the Agenda, but I must admit I haven't yet made use of it as a weekly calendar 💡
