Every day, once you turn on your computer and see the dense post-it notes, or switch back and forth between multiple to-do list apps on your phone, don’t you feel like your head is getting bigger? It is all too common to face efficiency dilemmas such as having too many tasks to remember and forgetting key things as soon as you are busy. Don't worry, a refreshing solution is right in front of you – What YYNote brings is not just a tool, but a refreshing work philosophy that adheres to the concept of "minimum effort, maximum return".

Today, let’s talk about how to use an extremely simple desktop to-do list to completely say goodbye to clutter.

See it at first sight and never forget anything again

Focus on the key points of each day and should be placed in the most prominent position. Imagine that after turning on the computer, all the tasks to be done will be suspended directly on the desktop of the computer in the form of transparent plug-ins, blending seamlessly with your wallpaper. There is no need to specifically open a certain type of software to-do list software. When you raise your head, all the tasks for the day will be clear. The purpose of such a "visible upon startup" design is to help you eliminate the process of "recalling" and "searching" and use all the saved brainpower in truly crucial work.

This is just like the current winter solstice, when friends from the south and the north are arguing about whether to eat dumplings or glutinous rice balls. In fact, the focus is not on the form, but on the sense of ritual and satisfaction that conforms to the season. The same is true for efficient work. The core lies not in the complicated tools used, but in whether the key information can be presented to you in a very direct and effortless (even with a ray of beauty) form. YYNote's desktop to-do list is designed to give you such a sense of solidity that you can "know it at a glance".

Intelligent organization, allowing to-do items to be automatically returned to their place

When a task comes, record it immediately. If you can use one sentence to quickly add it, like "I will have a meeting at 3 pm tomorrow to report on the project progress", it can intelligently distinguish the date and time, and then automatically set reminders. For repetitive tasks such as weekly meetings and monthly bills, you only need to set a flexible repetition rule once, and it will automatically generate to-do items for you on time, so that there will never be any omissions again.

Faced with many to-do items, how to classify them? You can easily create multiple lists, such as "work project" list, "personal life" list, "shopping list", or use tags to implement more detailed management. After you set the "work" label for a list, newly added items will be automatically labeled with the label, showing an orderly state. You can "pin" the most important lists to the top, or you can simply drag and drop them with the mouse to arrange them in any order according to priority.

Not just a record, but also your progress commander

An excellent to-do list is not just about recording, but also about motivating you to achieve it. Set a "target day" on the task, and the remaining days will be clearly displayed on the list. The sense of urgency and anticipation is an excellent help to overcome procrastination. Every time you complete an item, click the check box, and the instant sense of accomplishment is the best reward for yourself. All completed things will be automatically archived according to the date, so that you can review and sort them out at any time.

As the end of the year approaches, everyone begins to take stock of the entire year. Just as the "pink jersey" in Sichuan and Chongqing has become a hot topic again for no reason, some simple and effective methods can always stand the test of time. Put YYNote on your desktop, plan clearly every day, and execute it efficiently. When you look back at the end of the year, you will find that that feeling of control over your work and life is the most generous annual gift given to you.

Put an end to the days of panic and hesitation among multiple software and sticky notes.
