James and I wanted to build a better map of the productivity territory, and ultimately, to build a tool that interactively teaches people productivity.

In this post, I show how I adapt the workflow from James Stuber’s excellent article Daily Time Management with Todoist and Google Calendar to use with Emacs and Org-Mode.
“The 12 Week Year” argues that a calendar year — a 365 day time span — is too long a period to effectively plan and execute on your goals. Instead, you should do that process on a quarterly basis.
This post is a continuation of “Building A Second Brain with Emacs and Org-Mode.” If you haven’t read that yet, read that post first.
