Development Style Sprints with RTM

benjjj6 says:
To try and break my workload in to manageable sections of time where I do not over commit I create 2 week sprints.

- Create a Smart list which is set for tasks due 2 weeks in the future
- Any tasks which are due by that date are automatically included in the sprint.
- I then review each of my lists and drag the items I want to accomplish within this Sprint in to this smart list, this automatically adds the end of the Sprint as the due date.

This means during those two weeks all I have to do is look at the Smart list.

When the 2 weeks is over you can go to the Complete tab and view what you achieved.

Lists can be feature, projects, bugs and ranked by priority or expected time and effort.

Create a recurring task to Plan and Review the sprints.

This way of sectioning off selected tasks in to a manageable block is what helped me achieve more.

I hope that helps! :D
