Quotes to ponder:
"No matter how brilliant your system is, no matter how feature rich your todo list app is, nothing is going to do your work for you. Only you can do that."
"it is not the system you use that makes you productive, but the decisions you make about what to do now"
"The real 'perfect' productivity app is inside your head."
