Todoist CEO’s Setup

About this setup

Todoist's CEO and founder, Amir, uses this simple system to prioritize the highest impact things each day while ensuring he always follows up on the details – like meeting action items and emails.

Most importantly, his system helps him feel confident that everything is accounted for so he can fully disconnect at the end of the day.

Instructions

  1. Take the system everywhere so you can always have a way to see what you need to do.

  2. Capture everything - whether it’s work, personal, or just something you want to remember, put it all in Todoist.

  3. Break everything up into small, actionable tasks so they’re easier to complete.

  4. Prioritize using due dates, priority levels, and labels.

  5. Get to to-do list zero daily. You don’t have to complete everything daily, but take note of what tasks are being postponed.
