The problem

Everything asks for you at once.

Notes, tasks, dates: all visible, all loud. Attention is the one thing you cannot add more of.

One note, one row

One note. One next action.

Each note shows a single task, the one that is next. The rest wait quietly inside the note.

Focus

Focus shows only what is due.

Today and overdue. Nothing else is allowed on the screen.

Open

Open is where future work waits.

Planned by date and kept out of the way, so you can look ahead when you choose to.

Inbox

Inbox keeps the system honest.

No date, no next task, a broken link: it lands here, so nothing silently rots.

Done

Finish, and the board goes quiet.

Tick the task and it leaves. An empty Focus is a finished day.
