How to do it, step by step

  1. 1

    Put in the fixed commitments first, then let the tool place the rest.

  2. 2

    Give every task a duration — planning fails on missing estimates, not missing tools.

  3. 3

    Review Friday: what moved, what never got started, what should be dropped.

What usually goes wrong

Auto-scheduling only works if you actually mark tasks done. Half-used, it misleads.
