Quite decent article :) Can you let me know, how do you integrate Blogs with To-Do ? Or you paste all of it manually.

This is a good question, I would say practice to find out what works and what doesn’t work for me. There are some good videos on YouTube on how to take notes with OneNote, where I copied a couple of things. But I think that would make a good blog post in the future :)

Thank you very much for sharing your experiences in managing time and executing activities, it is very valuable for the community.

How to contribute and reviewing each of the tips, I do not know if you use it but I saw that if the calendar is listed in Outlook and on the right hand side, the tasks can be dragged directly to the calendar to schedule and block and then execute.

Once again, thank you very much.

Regards,

Diego

Hi Arlind
This is awesome! Remember Azure Boards are very powerful, but also need some time to setup. While MS Planner is pretty much straight-forward and integrates automatically in To Do. But you can also integrate Azure Boards in basically everything, but it needs some effort :)
For automation I usually recommend people to have a look at tools like “Power Automate” and Azure Functions.

I’m sure this will be really helpful for a lot of people, especially right now that a lot of people are working from home but they are not used to.

After reading this post I’m definitively going to try Azure DevOps Boards so thanks for the advice and sharing some tips on that. I really like the way you manage your calendar. You shared some cool advice on that. I don’t know if is strange to me or what but you really like the red colour. :)

Personally I’m in love with the Microsoft To Do app. The development team has done such a great job connecting the app with Microsoft Planner and Outlook. It is amazing having all your work at a glance, manageable from a single app. I also like using a simple Pomodoro Technique app, it reminds me to take short breaks, stand up and look away from the monitor for.

My personal life is organized in my Boullet Journal. I appreciate having a notebook to put my thoughts. I prefer keeping my work life separated from my personal life, this is why I use Microsoft To Do with a separate account, mainly from my phone. For my projects I use ClickUp. it is a great app with a lot of features, awesome design customization and a ton of integrations. You should check it out!
