Simple Task Tracking System for Solo Workers
A low-friction task tracking system for people who work alone.
Solo workers need visibility without bureaucracy. A task system should help execution, not become another task to maintain.
What the system needs
- active tasks
- parked tasks
- blocked tasks
- completed tasks
- a weekly review
Why many systems fail
- too many categories
- too much maintenance
- no distinction between current and future work
A simple structure
Active
What is truly in progress now.
Parked
What matters, but not this week.
Blocked
What cannot move until something changes.
Done
What has already been completed.
A low-friction tracking system usually beats a sophisticated system that demands too much upkeep.
