Growth is often about what you refuse to do

It's so easy to conflate growth with adding tasks and projects to our plates. Hustle culture conditions us to believe that more = better. But recently, we've realized the immense power (and inevitable growth) that comes from finally saying "Nah, that's not for me."

Bite-sized knowledge

Why signing off is getting harder.

Currently, 77% of professionals admit to thinking about work during their off-hours.1 For remote workers dealing with blurred boundaries, it's a slippery slope: 81% still check their emails long after they’ve "logged off." 2

Since this issue is more internal, the solution might be to bring it external.

Voice Notes on Tasks!

Speak freely, communicate better, and connect more easily. We've found that using voice notes during the workday helps us connect to the actual human behind the work. It makes for faster updates and much friendlier dialogue.

To try it out, open the sidebar of any Task and scroll down to the Voice Notes section (tip: if you love it, use the arrows on the right to move it to the top of your sidebar!).

P.S. Look out for a big announcement about our Mobile App soon!
