How Smart Task Prioritization Works

Goal

Let Focly help you pick the next best task without mental overload.

Step-by-step

Step 1 — Make sure tasks have basic info

Smart prioritization works best when tasks include:

• A deadline or due date (when relevant)

• A rough estimate (optional but helpful)

Step 2 — Check your prioritized list

• Go to your Tasks view

• Review what’s surfaced as “most important”

• Identify 1–3 tasks that must happen today

Step 3 — Act on the priority suggestions

• Schedule the top task in your planner

• Start a Focus session for it

Step 4 — Re-check after changes

If you add new urgent tasks or move tasks around:

• Revisit your priorities

• Confirm the top of the list still makes sense

Tips for better prioritization

• Don’t create 20 “urgent” tasks. Keep urgency meaningful.

• Add deadlines only when real; false deadlines reduce trust.
