(highlight:: When a certain context is predictable and can be scheduled as a routine, you can use Time Maps to define your contexts. Examples include:
I work at the office on Mon, Wed, and Fri from 9-12. (@office)I take care of my garden on Sunday mornings (@garden)I return my calls every afternoon (@call))

In the above examples, a Time Map is probably not the best solution because these contexts happen at irregular times. So, the best solution is to add a tag to each task that can only be done within the context of the above nature. Then, use filters to pull up the list of all tasks tagged.

When I have a difficult day, and my energy level runs low, I may want to deviate from my regular schedule and resort to smaller and easier tasks. So, I create an overarching task called ‘Small Easy Tasks’. I also create a filter that creates a list of all small tasks with less than a 5-minute duration. Then, I attach this filter to the task (see below). And finally, I schedule my task at a fixed time for a specific duration. For example, 3-4 pm. Then, I can use this task at 3 pm to get the list of small and easy tasks.
