What works well

subtasks; nothing is forgotten

4. Great for onboarding5. Preserves organic free form, adds central
record of critical deadlines, big ideas6. Highly searchable7. Customize view as list or calendar
Critical dates

Challenges
1. Not easy to acquire a new habit 2. One size doesn’t fit all3. Buy-in (interest easier than follow through)4. Free version limited to 15 users
5. Generates a lot of email; personal assistant or pest?6. Still just a list 7. Can be tedious (people don’t fully give up other
organizational systems)
Asana as personal assistant or pest?
