Hi folks,

I’ve recently started to make proper use of checklists and I’m now starting to compose a bunch. In particular I’ve started to compose some for things that I might not need to worry about for quite a while: I’ve got a “new client” checklist which I might not need to look at for months.

How can I ensure that I will actually remember to look at some of these checklists? I think I need to set up triggers of some kind but I don’t know what.

At the moment I have a folder on my computer called “when” that has a hierarchy of different situations within it and I classify things in there. So I have “when/bored”, ”when/preparing_to”, ”when/upcoming/special_occasions” etc. but I’m worried this is just going to become a bit of a graveyard and I’ll just forget about all this stuff.

I did a search for “checklist trigger” on these forums and couldn’t find anything of great interest. I’m really surprised this hasn’t been discussed before.
