Also, I’m supporting @ismh and @imyke’s St. Jude campaign, and you can donate here (you can still get their rewards through my link). I’m hoping the ABC community can raise $500 together!

@matt thanks for the video. I thought I’d say that I try not to use the “due” word when setting a date as that is more of a “start date” or “working on date”. I use “deadline” as “due” and this helps the logic for repeating tasks. So in your example the rent has a hard due date or deadline on the 5th of each month but I can choose to process the task 7 days earlier.

@superdavey Interesting. Does that mean you have a reminder date and a deadline on each task you create that needs to be done by a certain time?

@matt Yes. Not many tasks need deadlines so I want them to stand out. Deadlines are used for badge count too. What is good about Things is that it is flexible to handle different ideologies of GTD but the way it handles repeating tasks lends itself more to a “working on” and “completed by” system.
