- I use it for my daily tasks by creating an Area for each day of this and next week. This allows me to easily schedule jobs two weeks out on the fly. I can do this quickly on the phone or when an email comes in.
- I can make a list of 100 items, place them under “web site checklist”, and then when I have a new project I’m starting – I just copy the project and all of its to-dos and rename it with my project name.

How can I create project templates? (FAQ) - Things Wiki on 2009-11-02
- There is a workaround for that missing feature:
  
  Create the project.
  Then set it to inactive so it disappears from your active lists. (How can I set a project to inactive? (FAQ))
  Whenever you need a copy from that template, select it, duplicate it (Cmd-D), and set it to active (or drag it to the Next list).
  
  You could use a "template" tag to help locating them later on.
6 Steps to More Courage on 2009-11-02
- Everyone is polite. A few even make suggestions. But somewhere deep inside you realize that the dream has taken a hit. It hasn’t died, of course. But it has been dialed back—calibrated to the reality of deadlines, budgets, and limited resources.
- In my experience, there are six ways to find the courage you need to swim against the tide and stand for wow:
- 6 more annotations...
- - But when you decide that the dream warrants it, you have to take a stand and play full-out.
  - Sometimes, you just have to close your eyes and once again become present to what it is that you are trying to create.
  - Remind yourself what is at stake.
  - Listen to your heart. Most of us have spent a lifetime ignoring—or even suppressing—our intuition.
  - Speak up. This is he crucial step. You must give voice to your heart and go on the record. If you don’t, who will?
  - Aren’t the people you respect the most also the ones who demanded the most from you? You may not have fully appreciated it at the time, but, looking back, their stubborn refusal to settle is what made the difference.
The One Thing You Need to Create Wow Experiences on 2009-11-02
- In my experience, there are at least five obstacles to creating wow experiences:
- Often, we simply run out of time.
- 5 more annotations...
- - Sometimes, the problem is resources.
  - We know what the product or service could deliver, but we don’t have the knowledge, the skills, or the experience to get us there.
  - We dial back our own vision for what could be and succumb to the collective judgment of the group.
  - But the biggest obstacle of all is fear. In fact, I would say that this is the primary obstacle.
  - Regardless, if we are going to create wow experiences, we must become courageous.
Email Etiquette 101 on 2009-11-02
- The people you include in the “To” field should be the people you expect to read and respond to the message.
- The “CC” field should be used sparingly. You should only CC people who have a need to stay in the know.
- 19 more annotations...
- - There is nothing worse for the recipient than having to wade through a long message to get to the point.
  - Don’t discuss multiple subjects in a single message. If you need to discuss more than one subject, send multiple e-mails. This makes it easy to scan subject lines later to find the message you need.
  - Reply in a timely manner.
  - Responding once or twice a day is sufficient, unless you are in sales, customer service, tech support, or some other field where a faster response is expected.
  - Be mindful of your tone.
  - Sarcasm is especially dangerous.
  - The more matter-of-fact you can be, the better.
  - Don’t use e-mail to criticize others. E-mail is a terrific way to commend someone or praise them. It is not an appropriate medium for criticism.
  - These kinds of conversations are usually better handled face-to-face or, if necessary, over the phone.
  - Don’t reply in anger.
  - Usually a day or two after you didn’t send an angry e-mail, you’ll understand the wisdom of restraint.
  - Don’t overuse “reply to all.”
  - Your default response should be to reply only to the sender.
  - Don’t “copy up” as a means of coercion.
  - If they are not responding to your e-mails, try a different communications strategy.
  - “High priority” should be reserved for messages that are truly urgent.
  - Remember that company e-mail isn’t private. You have no legal protection.
  - Use a signature with your contact information. This is a courtesy for those receiving your messages.
  - Provide “if-then” options.
