I have a confession today, I’ve been harbouring an organisational secret for a good four months now (my bad?) and had only let my good friend Luce in on a certain check-listsable, customisable, project friendly(not to mention business and collaboration friendly), on-the-go app. Wow, that got a bit wordy didn’t it?
But in all seriousness. I’ve been keeping myself organised for the past few months by using a program called ASANA. Before I get down to selling this to you, this post is completely NOT sponsored – I started using it for work and being the organisational nerd I am, then integrated it into my home life.
There are so many list making apps available on the internet but there are a few reasons why this one is just on another level for me:
Lists inside projects, inside projects:
You can create a project, and then great as many tasks as you like inside it, you can also make sub tasks inside that one task. This is great if you love making YouTube videos, but always get to the upload stage and realise you forgot to take a thumbnail shot *points at self*. I haven’t forgotten to do this once since using this app.
Re-prioritising:
Not only can you make lists, you can move them. For me, especially at work, this is a massive pet peeve when you write your to-do list down in the order you want to do it and then a client calls with an emergency job. It makes my list look messy. I can’t hack it. But now I just add their task in, and move it to the top. No fuss, no mess.
Tick boxes:
Once you’re done with your task you can also tick it off *insert heart eye’d emoji*. It sends it to the completed section where you don’t have to look at it and can even archive the task and project once you’re done.
Assigning tasks to others:
Imagine Luce and I filmed a video together (totally needs to happen, right?). She uses ASANA so if I needed her to prepare anything I could pop it on my list and assign it to her – I then get a notification if she asks any questions, attaches photos or completes the task. It really is a blogging collab dream in a slightly more business format.
Due dates:
I’m crap at leaving things until the last minute, but by putting a due date in I get a little email reminder of what is coming up. Sometimes I just push back my completion date because I’m incredibly lazy, but more often than not it’s a good little reminder that something needs doing.
Laptop, iPad, iPhone – Check!
I have this app on my laptop, iPad and iPhone. So I can use it where ever. I particularly like t on my phone because I never have to carry my notebook around (it’s just weighty y’know?) and if I have an idea at work I can add it in under the correct project, not on a page in a notepad where I write so much I’ll have to search back for it come saturday when I’m prepping posts.
And my favourite part? It’s free. If you’re looking for a notebook-less organisational heaven this is it. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I need to go tick off my “The Blogger & The Full TIme Job (Part Two)” tick boxes…
And if you’re not interested in blog organisation? I have double the beauty chat for you tomorrow!

Great idea, I tend to still use an old school pinboard with a schedule and my calendar, but this looks much better!

I love being organized, so I'm always on the look-out for good applications such as Asana. Just downloaded to try it out – so thanks for the suggestion π

Please can you do a post/video on your job?? Such as how to get into it the pros and cons of it etc. Thanks
That sounds fab. I love being organised but stop blogging when starting working full time as couldn't fit it in. This year I have decided to start up again so something like this would be perfect xx
I can't thank you enough for this tip. I have so much on my plate with beauty contributions, school, ballet, and my own blog. Merci! xo

Downloading this right now! I LOVE to do list apps and always have to try them all out. At the moment I use TeuxDeux for anything not work related, and Wunderlist at work. This one sounds like it could overtake them tho!

This seems so helpful. I work in retail full time and just can't seem to get the balance right between working, blogging, and living my life! This would be so much better than trying to scribble everything down in different notebooks.

Oh. My. God. I need this! Lists! Ticking things off lists! <3
www.madeleineslittleblog.blogspot.co.uk
I just moved over here from keeping waayy too many sticky notes on my desktop and it's been awesome– ticking tasks off the list is so satisfying!
This is so freaking awesome.
I have two jobs, which includes running a bunch of social media outlets PLUS I have a blog. I haven't managed to find a way of keeping everything neat and tidy and altogether.. until now. So THANK YOU <3
About to get that App right now! If you're the blogger & full time job, then I'm the blogger & full time student (with swimming on the side) so I understand what it is to have a booked schedule. The fact you manage this blog–and manage it wonderfully–while being so busy is an incredible inspiration.

ahh i must try this, i love love love to be organised

will have to try this. organisation is not my forte.
I tried ASANA awhile ago but I found it was too complicated for me. In the end I'm much better with an app that just has the ability to put together several plain to do lists!

I ADORE any kind of organisational apps; I tried Astrid tasks for a while. But the problem is I just can't find any that emulates the joy of ticking off or crossing something through manually. I suppose I enjoy the creative side of it too.
I'll try this out though, it looks pretty interesting. π
This sounds so great, I've been on the hunt for something like this forever it seems! I have to try it out immediately to see if it will work for me π Thank you for the great post! xo
great tips

I am so in love with your blog and you seem so sweet and your so pretty. CanΒ΄t you do a "how to organise your life" video? That would be so helpfull. Because I just started my own blog, and IΒ΄m on my last year at school and its kinda hectic. π x
Brilliant thank you so much for the tip! I've just downloaded the app, maybe this will stop be from procrastinating!
I've been using Wunderlist and it seems that it's pretty similar to ASANA. I highly recommend it if you would like to try something else π
