I love the priority filter. One of my greatest weaknesses is knowing the tasks with greatest priority and then limit what I’m working or focusing on. Until the task is vetted, I keep it out of sight on the Backlog and not on the Ready list. Unfortunately, I’m either going to add another column to split out Ready tasks or I’m going to add a task limit of 10. Prioritized or not, I think anything longer then 10 is too long. The colors are critical for me to locate and ID project tasks at a glance.

Yes, with a geeky wife, macro for excel was on the list. Now, if we could only view the kanban from a touchscreen tv in the kitchen… Will add as a task later.

I like the “focus” column. What did you think of the priority filter idea? It seems that with that many work source types you may need to visualize more of your backlog.

And I love the fact that “macro for excel” is a honey-do.

This is awesome. I began following Jim’s series on Personal Kanban and it has literally turned my work day around 190 degrees. It has now spilled over into my personal life as well. I love seeing how others work Personal Kanban, thanks for sharing.
