Get started with Todoist so you can get better organised and achieve greater productivity

Why?

At the end of 2015, I decided I wanted to tell everyone about the fantastic productivity app, Todoist. I had tried almost all the different productivity apps in the App Store, and none of them really managed to keep me organised and on top of my work and life, and at the same time inspire me to get more work done and stay organised. Only Todoist managed to do that. With its beautiful user interface, logical workflow and immense flexibility, to me this app was the stuff dreams were made of. And I wanted to tell the whole world about it. 

But how does an English teacher in South Korea tell the world about an app? I decided the best way to do this was to start a YouTube channel to show as many people as possible how to use Todoist and some of the tricks and tips I had learnt from using it for over 18 months. That channel grew, in fact it grew far better than I ever imagined. I never realised there were so many people who were using Todoist and wanted to get the most out of it. The comments and fantastic questions left on the channel helped me to improve my use and show people more great ways to get Todoist working for them. I am so grateful to all my subscribers. You guys have really inspired me. 

What's Included?

In this book, I have gone through how you too can set up Todoist, use all the amazing features and get yourself organised and on top of everything.

We start with the basics of setting up projects and creating tasks, then we move on to labelling, flags and filters. And if that isn't enough, we then delve deeper in the second part of the book and go though some of the more advanced features that will very quickly turn you in to a fully fledged expert with Todoist. 

Who's It For?

I have written this book because I want everyone to find, learn and use the fantastic Todoist everyday of their lives. It can help change your life too by bringing order out of chaos and by helping you see the way forward to achieving the things you want to achieve in your life. 

So, if you are an occasional user of Todoist, a seasoned user, or if you feel a bit lost and not sure what you need to do and want something to point you in the right direction, then this book, and Todoist, is for you.
