Episode notes
Context Focus
- Focus on the single most important context for a task, rather than trying to capture every single possibility.
- Assign contexts based on where a task is best done, not just where it could be done.
Context Setup
- Set up contexts based on the tools or locations where tasks must be done.
- Regularly re-evaluate your contexts, removing unused ones and refining those that feel overwhelming.
Scheduled Refinement
- Schedule dedicated time for refining your productivity system, such as during a monthly review.
- Avoid constant tweaking by limiting these refinement sessions to prevent them from hindering actual execution.
