Are traditional to-do lists dead?

ai artificial intelligence productivity to-do list

We've been a fan of "to-do" lists for years.  In fact, 42% of business leaders say they use to-do lists to get more done.  Unfortunately, they're not perfect.  

1. "Overwhelm" from too many tasks

2. Easy to forget items if they're not done immediately

3. Lack of built-in prioritization

4. Big tasks can be vague (or not broken down enough)

5. No connection with larger goals

6. No system for delegation

7. No built-in time allocation

And while these hurdles make to-do lists challenging for everyone, our coaching with ADHD clients shows that to-do lists simply don't work for them.  In our quest to solve this problem, we're been testing various AI-tools to manage our "things."  We've been happily surprised by the ease of adding tasks (from a desktop or while on-the-go from our phones), re-scheduling missed tasks, prioritizing future tasks, and delegating tasks/projects to team members. 

Some of the most popular apps are:

1. Microsoft To-Do + Copilot

2. Notion

3. ClickUp

4. Motion

Currently, our favorite app is Motion, but this category of apps is sure to explode over the coming months.
