My Smart list named "focus".

I hit a new record of #rtmstats (completed 3,819 tasks) in the last year :D
For years, rememberthemilk is my personal clever butler at all times.

Let me introduce my main list named "focus". this is a smartlist with search condition:

(NOT priority:N AND list:Inbox) OR (dueBefore:now) OR (dueWithin:"2 day of today" AND NOT (tag:just OR list:sched)) OR (addedAfter:today AND due:never AND list:Inbox) OR (tag:sticky)

This smartlist helps me to focus tasks should focus right now.

1. every priority set tasks.
2. every overdue tasks.
3. future tasks but not tagged "just" and not in list "sched". these tasks (tagged "just" or in list "sched") will be visible on just that time (by rule 2).
4. tasks added today. I'm using @rmilk.com email to add new github issues as new task. I can review and assign due date them.
5. every tasks tagged "sticky". this overwrite above rules. I set "sticky" tag to put the task in my mind.

Are you worried about other tasks? then just set a task "check your rtm backlog tasks." with "every 1 week" repleat. this is rememberthemilk's way.

I hope this helps your rememberthemilk life. thank you.
