Thanks for the good ideas! Do you have a method for making your scheduled appointment/meeting commitments stand out so you can quickly differentiate from general tasks that aren't appointments? Tag or separate color-coded list, maybe?
Personally, I use Google Calendar for events, appointments, and meetings and use colors like reds and deep yellows to make important events stand out. For my main events calendar, I use deep red in Google Calendar, which shows as a softer shade of red in TickTick. Task lists in TickTick are less obvious colors like peach, pale yellows, taupe, blues, soft purples, and greens.
Really interesting to see your TickTick system :) I'm curious about your Projects folders, what do you do when a project is finished? Do you delete/archive the folder?
Usually I just delete the project. I don't keep TickTick as a repository of materials, necessarily. Although, with the Notes functionality, I'm considering it more.
For your Weekly Review, I'm having a hard time understanding how you have your lists (i.e., Process physical box, Process e-mail inboxes, etc.) set-up as tasks. They don't appear to be an insert of a task summary.
Are you asking how I made them checkboxes? There is an icon on the web/Windows version under the Priority flag towards the top right. It flips your description from text to a checklist.
@@JoshuaBest I found out how you are doing this in your video, "Subtasks vs Checklists: What's the Difference!?" I'm new to TickTick so still trying to find my way around. I subscribed to your channel. Good content!
@@sab001 Checklists are just that: checklist. It´s an isolated item that you can check out. A subtask, differently, is an entire task into another. Which means that you can tag, assign to someone else, determine a due date and everything else you can do with any other task. You can´t do none of this with checklists.
Checklist is a game changer in my opinion when we compare todoist with Tick tick. Checklist is a very powerful tool because there are reset in recurring tasks process and also they add less noise than sub tasks.
Sadly I agree with Khalmoon because even though Todoist looks like an American company, there are good chances servers are hosted in China or any other similar country. However, you should not put credit card info or informations like this in your todo app. My rule of thumb to know if what I enter in my todo is safe is: If anybody would see my tasks would be able to use that information to harm me then it's not the good place to store it. Indicating that you have to call one of your colleagues about something or buy paint at your local store couldn't in any ways help other to attack you. Do you have an example of information that you save on your todo list that would be at risk?
Keep going man!
Thank you for show your system

Can you give an update on what's changed with how you use TickTick in the last year?
Hey Kacee, I just posted a new video today where I outline how I'm using TickTick now (the beginning of 2023).
How’s that bathroom upgrade doing?
Ha, well the good news it's done. But we hired some people to do it and we're still paying for it. 😀

nice setup man I am a todoist user btw,
Todoist is also good. I've used it in the past. Thanks for the comment!
Another idea... Health list
Yeah, good idea. I use the Habits feature for most health related things (ie drink 100 oz of water each day, go for a walk every day).
the music is way too loud and annoying
Thanks for the feedback. I'll consider making it quieter on the next video.
@@JoshuaBest Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
@@JoshuaBest Yeah man, the heavy bass is just too much. Music needs to be way more mellow and quieter.
I wasn't noticed the background music before reading this comment :D
this background melancholy music doesn't fit the theme.
Chinese company. I wouldn't install anything like that on my pc. Barely trust it in the browser.
With that mentality you probably can't use anything. Probably can't even use google due to how much tracking they do also, yet you're on youtube.
