Getting Started!

1. Understanding the Structure:

Your template uses two main databases:

• Task Database: This is where you'll list all your individual tasks.
• Area Database: This helps you categorize your tasks into broader areas of your life or work.

2. Setting Up Your Areas:

📌 Go to the "Area Database"

• Add each area: Think of the major categories your tasks fall under. Examples: "Work Projects," "Personal Errands," "Household Chores," "Learning," "Health & Fitness," etc. Be as specific or general as you need to be.
• (Optional) Review the "Task Summary" Formula: This property automatically calculates and displays a summary of your completed vs. total tasks for each area. You don't need to edit this; it updates as you work.

3. Adding Your Tasks:

📌 Go to the "Task Database"

• Create a new task: Click the "New" button to add a new task entry.
• Name: Give your task a clear and concise title (e.g., "Schedule dentist appointment," "Finish project proposal," "Grocery shopping").
• Area: This is crucial for organization. Use the dropdown menu to link your task to the appropriate area you created in the "Area Database." This connects your individual tasks to the bigger picture.
