What is the Today List?
The Today List is your daily focus list — a short, deliberate selection of tasks you are committing to complete today.
Unlike the Master List, which holds everything, the Today List should be realistic and focused. The act of choosing what goes on your Today List each morning is itself a productivity practice — it forces you to prioritise rather than react.
Tasks on the Today List are also automatically added to the Master List, so nothing gets lost. When you complete a task from the Today List, it moves to your Completed list and your progress is tracked on the dashboard.
The Productivity Ninja philosophy is clear on this: a shorter, achievable Today List beats a long aspirational one every time. Done is better than planned.
