It can be hard to think of new ideas constantly, and when you do come up with one, it tends to happen in a very strange, awkward spot.
Keep an always-accessible idea file: one of the best things any writer or blogger can do is start an idea file. Type away as your boss prattles on and before you’re even back at the cubicle, the notes are on your desktop (great if you process notes into GTD action items immediately after a meeting).Ħ. Take notes during meetings without transcribing, or for that matter transferring them to other devices. Just hit the Sync button and you’re done.ĥ. Spouses aside, working in Evernote can make taking your work home a lot easier than emailing Word documents or transferring them to your PDA or laptop before you leave. It’s less likely to be spotted than the bulky folder you walked in the door with last week. Sneak some work home without anyone knowing: got a spouse who gets snarky when you bring work home with you? Don’t make it so obvious – just save your material as an Evernote entry and sync when you get home. It’s hard to zero out an inbox when everything’s being sent there whether you need to deal with it now or not.ģ. Share information unobtrusively: instead of being “that guy” who sends every last scrap of info, relevant or not, in a new email to ten people at a time, store that information with Evernote and share it with the relevant people you won’t clog up their email anymore, and they have more control of their own time back. One of the best, yet simplest, uses of Evernote has been to store those day-to-day snippets of information in a more organized, less cluttered manner. The same goes with sticky notes that get plastered around the edges of the monitor, and even scraps of paper floating around the desk (and floor… and ceiling!). ⌄ Scroll down to continue reading article ⌄
