“I think the goal of education is to learn about the world and different types of knowledge, [to] find what your passion or passions are, and to learn by doing. Get involved with the world and try to change the world,” says Kurzweil.(via Kurzweil Says Passion Projects Are the Best Way to Learn)

“The whole model of education, of stuffing information into kids’ minds is very much obsolete, since we carry all the knowledge of the world on our belts… The knowledge we carry around with us is only going to get ever more rich, and it's going to become more and more intimately integrated with our lives.” says Kurzweil.

When was the last time you forgot to do something really important at work or home and went all mad about yourself for not being able to do it? The worst part is when you’ve to explain it to someone that you actually forgot a task. It’s not a good feeling. But it happens. People forget simple things like a deadline, doing household stuff, class assignments etc. It’s a normal human thing. We tend to forget, get occupied in busier stuff. But as humans, we’re also evolving. We’re being more productive. We’ve got tools to help us remember stuff that we need to do. Yeah, todo lists. That’s what I’m talking about.

An organized mind is a devil’s enemy. So go ahead and make those todo lists, prioritise and execute. There are plenty of tools available to help you out with that stuff. But using them shouldn’t become another task that you forget. You don’t want to add another to do task to add to do tasks to you to do lists. That doesn’t help.

We at Todoed, are on a mission to make the world a more productive place. For first steps, we want to help you easily build that todo list so you don’t ever forget simple tasks. With our chrome extension, you can turn any selected text into a delegate-able task. It’s simple and easy. And it’s not a todo tool made just for busy business people. We want to help different people organize todos for as many different tasks they want to. We believe this tool can help students, entrepreneurs, parents, doctors or anyone who wishes to be more productive.

This presentation can help you get an idea of how Todoed can help you work better, live better, study better or just be more productive in life.

Todoed is working to make todo listing, delegating and organising be absolutely seamless on your mobile and desktop. Seamless to your browsing, thinking and chatting habits. The goal is to build a productivity suite to enable effective task management, building and sharing ideas and better team communication and collaboration across devices and platforms.

The human mind is like a haven of procrastination. We find lousy excuses to not do a job. You have to do the laundry? The sun is not bright enough today. You have to take the garbage out? The bin is not overflowing yet. You have to chase your dreams? Oh I can’t find my running shoes! This is just the tip of the iceberg, where the horned devil rests, content with his success, enjoying his view of you living in an unproductive dump.

The question is - how do we change from a procrastinator to a doer? The subconscious part of your brain can answer this question. Get organized. An organized lifestyle is the result of an organized mind. The key is to detangle all the mess that is in your mind and this will in turn reflect on your day to day life and vice versa.

Imagine a straight road where you have to cover a short distance from point A to point B. The road is covered in debris. So first you will have to clear all the debris to make way and then start moving forward. Similarly, clear all the distractions from your life and your mind, anything and everything that deviates you from your actual goal.

Start by making a list of todos (try Todoed) that need to be done by the end of the day, to the end of the week and gradually to the end of time. The moment you list down all the activities that need to be done, your life will unwind automatically. Thus starts your productive journey.

Next, prioritize. Prioritizing is as important as listing, or even more. You need to be clear in your head about the importance of the todos at hand before executing it.

And lastly, execution. Do not let the devil get the better of you, now that you have organized and prioritized. Just go ahead and pull the trigger, one step at a time, and enjoy the glory at the end of the road.
