SUMMARY:Using OmniFocus with Drafts
DESCRIPTION:Is your OmniFocus Inbox overflowing with tasks\, random thoughts\, ideas\, and more? Consider capturing into Drafts instead.\n\nAvailable in Our Course Library\nDid you miss the LIVE session? Using OmniFocus with Drafts is now available in our growing course library along with other courses that cover a wide variety of topics.\nWhile it may feel good to dump your thoughts into the OmniFocus inbox\, you may soon discover that you quickly end up with an unmanageable OmniFocus inbox where critical actions get lost in the noise. An alternate strategy is to capture into the Drafts app (Mac\, iPhone\, iPad\, and Apple Watch) and use Drafts actions to quickly and easily transform and redirect what you’ve captured. \nDrafts can also be a great complement to OmniFocus when it’s time to get down to work. You can store project templates in Drafts and easily transform them into projects. Drafts can also be an excellent place to store your project support material. And it’s quick and easy to link what you’ve stored in Drafts to the relevant projects and actions in OmniFocus. \nDrafts: “Where Text Starts”\nAt a basic level\, you can think of Drafts as the digital equivalent of a notepad. \n \nWhen you launch Drafts\, you’re presented with a blank note and can type (or\, if you have an iPad with an Apple Pencil\, Scribble) whatever’s on your mind — whether it’s an interesting idea you had while out walking the dog or a promise that you just made to a client. You simply capture what has your attention into Drafts’ inbox\, without worrying about where this information belongs and what (if any) action needs to be taken. \nYour Drafts inbox may contain information or tasks that are time-sensitive\, so it’s a good idea to regularly “clarify” (in Getting Things Done terms) what you’ve captured in Drafts. This process includes determining whether what you’ve captured is actionable\, or if it’s something that you’ll choose to keep for future reference. Actionable captures can be transformed into actionable tasks and sent off to OmniFocus. Things that aren’t immediately actionable\, but still potentially have future value (e.g. the great idea that you had in the shower) can be sent off to the appropriate repository for future review\, or even tagged and archived in Drafts itself. \nThe real magic of Drafts is its support for actions. In a nutshell\, actions allow you to quickly and conveniently process your Drafts. For example\, one action might transform a Draft into an OmniFocus action and another might send it off to your idea repository in DEVONthink. Drafts comes pre-installed with a variety of actions. And you’ll find many more in the Drafts Directory. If you have the Drafts Pro upgrade you can modify actions written by others and create your own from scratch. \nDrafts: Free & Pro Subscription\nThere’s a free tier of Drafts that allows you to create\, edit\, and sync drafts and make use of all of the actions in the Drafts Directory. Drafts Pro is an optional subscription-based upgrade that\, among other things\, lets you create and edit actions\, organize your drafts into workspaces\, and make use of widgets. \nMuch of what you’ll learn in this session can be accomplished using the free version of Drafts. Though\, we’ll also show some of the features that are exclusive to Drafts Pro to give you a taste of what’s available if you choose to upgrade. \nEveryone is welcome. No previous Drafts experience is required.\nYou’re very welcome to attend\, even if you’re new to Drafts. This session includes an overview of the Drafts app for Mac\, iPhone\, iPad\, and Apple Watch\, highlighting how it’s a natural complement to OmniFocus.  \nSession Overview\nJoin this interactive session and learn: \n\nWhen and why it makes more sense to capture into Drafts instead of OmniFocus.\nA variety of ways to use existing Drafts actions to transform drafts into OmniFocus actions.\nHow to use Drafts to store project support materials\, and when it makes sense to use tags and workspaces (Drafts Pro).\nHow to create OmniFocus projects in Drafts using the TaskPaper syntax.\nHow to create and make use of OmniFocus project templates that are stored in Drafts.\nA quick and convenient way to capture on the Apple Watch using Drafts.\nHow to create Shortcuts (iPhone/iPad) that automate the creations of drafts that are linked to new OmniFocus actions.\nHow to link Drafts and OmniFocus using Hook (Mac).\nAnd more…\n\nAn Interactive Experience\nDuring the live session\, you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions and share insights using the chatbox and audio/video conferencing. \nYou’re welcome to join the live session 15 minutes before the start time to familiarize yourself with the online meeting technology we’re using and for an informal chat with other participants. The live session will remain active for 15 minutes after the completion time for additional questions and sharing.

SUMMARY:Using OmniFocus with MindNode
DESCRIPTION:Are you faced with a large project? Do you have more ideas than you know what to do with? Mind mapping can be very helpful.\nBefore creating projects and actions in OmniFocus\, it’s a good idea to have at least some sense of where you’re going and the scope of the work. Mind mapping can be a very helpful way to bring form to scattered ideas and can help make even the loftiest of goals manageable. \nFeatured App: MindNode\nThis session features MindNode\, a beautifully crafted\, intuitive\, and highly functional mind mapping app for Mac\, iPhone\, and iPad.  \nWe make extensive use of MindNode at Learn OmniFocus. Appropriately enough\, this session and much of our content began in MindNode. It’s also the app that our friends at The Sweet Setup selected as the best mind mapping app.  \nWhile this session centres around MindNode\, the strategies that we’ll be sharing can be applied using virtually any mind mapping app\, including iThoughts and MindMeister. \n \nFree MindNode Editor and MindNode Plus\nMindNode offers a free editor\, that includes many of the features that we’ll be showcasing in this session. You also have the option of subscribing to MindNode Plus to tap into their full feature set\, which includes Visual Tags\, Focus Mode and Quick Entry. \nMindNode is available on the App Store (iPhone\, iPad) and the Mac App Store.

SUMMARY:Using OmniFocus 3 with Asana
DESCRIPTION:  \n\n\n\nOmniFocus is fundamentally a personal task manager. It’s a tool that allows you to organize objectives and actions tied to your own personal commitments. You get to decide what goes in OmniFocus and can organize OmniFocus in whatever way makes the most sense to you. But\, what about work that involves collaboration? This could be anything from planning a vacation to projects in your day job that involve a team of people. \nPairing Team Collaboration with Personal Task Management\nThis session features Asana\, a well-established project management solution that can be used to manage collaborative projects large and small. It can also be a helpful place to keep track of the big picture and to store ideas\, customer requests\, meeting agendas\, and more.  We’ll explore some features and integrations that can be used with the free version of Asana\, which supports teams of up to 15 people. We’ll also delve into some of Asana’s more advanced features\, looking at how they can be put to good use alongside OmniFocus. \nEveryone is welcome. No previous Asana experience is required.\nThis session doesn’t assume any previous experience with Asana and is suitable for anyone who collaborates with other people\, whether it’s your family or your team of colleagues at work. Asana can also be very helpful for teams of one. For example\, if you’re a solo podcaster\, you could use Asana to keep track of themes to cover on your podcast from idea to inception. Asana can also be an excellent place to track and manage the bigger picture of your life and work\, with OmniFocus being used to help ensure that your carefully-crafted strategy is given the appropriate amount of attention. \nSession Overview\nJoin this interactive session and learn: \n\nAbout the variety of ways that Asana can be used\, both individually and in a team environment.\nWhy Asana may be a good choice for managing your collaborative activities.\nHow using Asana can dramatically reduce your email volume.\nAbout criteria for deciding what to keep in OmniFocus and what belongs in Asana.\nHow to transform Asana tasks into OmniFocus projects and actions.\nTechniques for creating links between Asana and OmniFocus.\nHow to use OmniFocus to help ensure that you’re paying appropriate attention to Asana. For example\, repeating OmniFocus actions can prompt you to process your Asana Inbox\, review specific Asana projects\, and review Asana Reports and Portfolios.\nHow to use Zapier to automate the process of creating OmniFocus actions based on Asana activity. For example\, if you’re assigned a task in Asana\, a Zapier “Zap” can automatically create an OmniFocus action with a link back to the Asana task.\nAnd more…\n\nHow We Use Asana at Learn OmniFocus\nWe use Asana to manage our collaborative work at Learn OmniFocus\, including the development and maintenance of the Learn OmniFocus website. During the session\, you’ll learn about some of the ways that we’re making productive use of Asana internally. \nAsana Certified Pro\nThis session will be led by Learn OmniFocus Founder\, Tim Stringer. Tim has been using Asana since 2011 and was one of the first people in the world to become an Asana Certified Pro when Asana launched this program in 2018. He has provided Asana consulting and training to a wide variety of organizations over the years\, ranging from small startups to large universities.

SUMMARY:Manifesting Ideas with OmniFocus + DEVONthink (with Kourosh Dini)
DESCRIPTION:Kourosh Dini literally wrote the book on OmniFocus. His critically acclaimed book\, Creating Flow with OmniFocus\, was originally published in 2009 and offers a wealth of practical advice to support people in using OmniFocus effectively. \nIn previous Learn OmniFocus LIVE sessions\, Kourosh shared details of his OmniFocus setup and workflows. During this session\, Kourosh will take us even deeper into his system\, sharing how he brings ideas to life\, with some help from his carefully-chosen productivity apps. \nTaking Smart Notes with DEVONthink\nKourosh’s latest book delves into another of his favourite apps\, DEVONthink. It’s a guide for people who have an abundance of great ideas that tend to get lost in the shuffle. \nTaking Smart Notes with DEVONthink guides you through the process of storing these ideas in DEVONthink in such a way that you’ll be able to easily retrieve them later. Having this rich information at your fingertips is especially useful when you’re starting a project from scratch and facing the challenges that come with a blank slate. \nUsing DEVONthink Alongside OmniFocus\nDEVONthink is a natural complement to OmniFocus. DEVONthink excels at easily storing and retrieving information and OmniFocus can be used to help ensure that the great ideas that you’ve captured are revisited regularly and manifest into something useful. \nOverview of the LIVE Session\nDuring the LIVE session\, Koroush will showcase some examples of how he turned random ideas into something tangible using OmniFocus and DEVONthink. \nAlong the way\, you’ll learn: \n\nWhy Kourosh chose DEVONthink to store his notes.\nHow to quickly capture random ideas using DEVONthink.\nHow to easily create links between ideas that you’ve captured in DEVONthink.\nHow to use tags in DEVONthink to identify notes that need to be reviewed.\nHow to link your OmniFocus projects and actions with information stored in DEVONthink.\nHow to use repeating actions in OmniFocus to ensure that the information stored in DEVONthink gets the appropriate amount of attention.\nHow DEVONthink can be used to reduce the load on OmniFocus\, making OmniFocus easier to manage and more effective.\nAnd more…\n\nAbout Kourosh Dini\nKourosh Dini\, MD is a psychiatrist\, productivity expert\, author\, and musician. \nHe works as a psychoanalyst in private practice in downtown Chicago. His award-winning productivity books include Creating Flow With OmniFocus\, Being Productive\, and Workflow Mastery. \nKourosh is featured on the Omni Group’s Inside OmniFocus site and was one of the speakers at the OmniFocus Setup event in 2013. He has also been a guest on the popular Mac Power Users and Focused podcasts. \nAn Interactive Experience\nDuring the live session\, you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions and share insights using the chatbox and audio/video conferencing. \nYou’re welcome to join the live session 15 minutes before the start time to familiarize yourself with the online meeting technology we’re using and for an informal chat with other participants.

SUMMARY:Managing Someday/Maybe with OmniFocus 3
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to use OmniFocus to manage lists of things that you’d like to consider doing in the future\, but that isn’t actionable in the present. In the Getting Things Done (GTD) methodology\, David Allen refers to these lists as “someday/maybe lists”. \nOverview of LIVE Session\nThis session is all about managing someday/maybe lists at a practical level and how you can use OmniFocus to ensure that these lists are reviewed periodically. \nWhile someday/maybe lists can be stored in OmniFocus\, it may be more practical to store at least some of these lists outside of OmniFocus. We’ll explore a variety of different scenarios so that you can determine what works best for you. By participating in the live session you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions and share your insights. \n \nCapturing\, Organizing and Getting Creative\nAs you process items that you’ve captured in your inbox\, you’ll inevitably encounter things that that are not ready for action. This could include something as simple as an idea for a blog post to lofty dreams such as building a beautiful home by the sea or starting a new company. \nIt’s important to have one or more places to keep track of all of the stuff that you want to revisit in the future. \nIt’s equally important that you be intentional about reviewing these future aspirations. If your psyche trusts that you’re going to look at what you’ve captured on a regular basis\, you’ll likely find that you’ll have a greater capacity to focus on current projects and actions without pie-in-the-sky ideas stealing your mental focus. \nAs you review what you’ve captured you can tap into your innate creativity and let your imagination soar. You’ll decide what to keep\, what is ripe for further exploration and what to remove from the list. If you find you accumulate more ideas than you’re likely to be able to accomplish in a lifetime\, it might be time to give some away and/or start to think about expanding your team. \nDavid Allen on Someday/Maybe Lists\nIn the book “Getting Things Done”\, David Allen coined the term “Someday/Maybe”. He shares how “…it can be useful and inspiring to maintain an ongoing list of things you might want to do at some point but not now”. He goes on to say that “…this is a ‘parking lot’ for projects that would be impossible to move on at present but that you don’t want to forget about entirely. You’d like to be reminded of the possibilities at regular intervals”. \n“Activating and maintaining your Someday/Maybe category unleashes the flow of your creative thinking—you have permission to imagine cool things to do without having to commit to doing anything about them yet.” \n– David Allen (Source: Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity) \nWhat You’ll Learn\nAttend the live session and learn: \n\nWhy it’s important to have someday/maybe lists.\nAdvantages and disadvantages of storing someday/maybe lists in OmniFocus.\nAdvantages to storing someday/maybe outside of OmniFocus (e.g. in apps such as Evernote\, Trello\, Asana\, Notion\, and Notes).\nHow to manage someday/maybe lists that are shared by a group of people (e.g. your family or a team at work).\nHow often you need to review someday/maybe lists.\nHow to use OmniFocus to ensure that both your individual and shared someday/maybe lists get the appropriate amount of attention.\nHow to use Drafts to conveniently add items to your someday/maybe lists.\nBest practices for reviewing your someday/maybe lists.\nBest practices for creating OmniFocus projects based on someday/maybe lists.\nBest practices for using tags and custom perspectives to help manage your someday/maybe lists.\nHow to deal with projects that are put on hold indefinitely.\nAnd more…\n\nRecommended Prerequisites\nEspecially if you’re new to OmniFocus\, it’s recommended that you go through the Start Smart with OmniFocus 3 course before watching this session. You might also want to watch the recording of the OmniFocus 3: Beyond the Basics course to get better acquainted with OmniFocus’ more advanced features.
