#FVC

Tasks are clearly defined, actionable items that form the smallest unit in the Pipeline.

Tasks should:

• have a clear yes or no answer for completion
• be related to Projects or Disciplines
• be meaningful and important
• be small; aim for tasks that take no more than two hours

Implementation:

Use the Obsidian Tasks plugin to create and manage tasks. The power of task queries enables task creation from anywhere in the vault.

Task queries could be complicated. See documentation for syntax.

By default, Obsidian Tasks uses #task for tasks. We use #t to reduce friction.

Tasks can be tagged for status control:

• #current tasks are those that are being worked on. Try to keep the number below 3.
• #planned tasks are those that will be completed today or tomorrow. Aim for no more than 6.
• #inbox for added tasks
• #keystone for very important tasks

Other stuff can be added to a task description:

• 🧻 indicates there are subtasks

Tasks could be formatted this way:

- [x] #t something to do 📅 2022-03-13 #current ✅ 2022-03-12
