Having a long list of tasks which fall into the "I'll do this later" category, can make us feel overwhelmed. The long list can also muddle up what needs to be done right now. Clarity is gone! πŸ˜Άβ€πŸŒ«οΈ
​
So, with our 'Not-Now' list, consider this your temporary place for tasks that still needs to be done, just not at this very minute. ⏸️
​
The first version of the 'Not-Now' list opens up a few new different ways you can use Llama Life - but, at it's core, you'll now be able to move tasks in and out of the main list exactly as it is, with any time spent and Overtime saved. πŸ‘ŒπŸ»

The name of the game is that this feature is flexible - you'll work out a process that fits with your current system, however, we do have some suggestions

When your list feels overwhelmingly long, use 'Not-Now' to break up your day.

Imagine you've added your tasks for your entire day and your list is looking too long... ekkkk stressful! 🀯

Things start to merge together, and it's no longer clear what's important! 🫀

πŸ’‘ You could move all your afternoon tasks to 'Not-Now' to help reduce overwhelm. β˜€οΈ

πŸ’‘ You could also move all of today's tasks to 'Not-Now' except the one you're working on right now. Kind of like a super focus mode. πŸ§˜πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

If your End and List times are getting out of hand...

Stay vigilant and move tasks to the 'Not-Now' list for later. 😎
When plans don't go as we expect, use 'Not-Now' to help you manage. πŸ‘πŸΌ
