A vacation is a great time to do the things you normally (perhaps wrongly) wouldn’t dare to spend your time on. With no 9-to-5 job you get some extra space - both physically and mentally. Unless you’re going on an extreme journey in the Himalayas or something, try to use this time to reset your “hard drive,” charge the batteries and reflect on how to live better, work smarter and be happier :-)

You’re about to see a couple of project templates that you can use for yourself right away, save for later or share with a friend who’s looking for advice in marketing or constantly overvaluing nonessentials. You’ll also get a chance to learn how to create handy project templates.

Don’t let others prioritize your life

We carefully listen to your feedback, but in this case we’ve been stubborn. For your sake.

Welcome back to our FAQ series in which we tackle popular questions that our users ask us in their emails and messages. This month we’re discussing an underused but powerful feature of Nozbe - the possibility to format text comments using Markdown markup language.

Did you know that approximately 65% of the population are visual learners? Most of us process information based on what we see. We also tend to pay more attention to those elements that stand out. Because of that, from time to time we receive the following question:

Templates are a no-brainer in time management. Let’s discover why! Project templates are one of the core features of Nozbe. Still underestimated by users. If you know the power of a template in general, you understand how it can improve your recurring actions. From packing to a training plan, templates are always ready to use, save your time and assure you don’t miss anything important. With Nozbe.how (a feature that allows you to share your project template with others) you don’t even need to make your own templates – one click and the shared template lands in your Nozbe as a new project.

The Podcast is a weekly conversation between Michael, (our CEO) and Radek, (Nozbe VP Apple) about the things they’re interested in. They talk about books, insights, business, productivity, technology, and whatever else comes to mind, really.

Every newbie in the productivity world faces the problem of the overwhelming wave of tasks, coming and coming every week. How do you keep a sense of control? Michael’s answer is: the weekly review! We really take this seriously. It’s why we created our TGIF policy – we all have to do a review every Friday. It has a positive impact on ourselves and on our team. And we write about this quite often.
