The Cami workspace:
today’s tasks and your active goals in one place

The Cami workspace is the place where tasks and goals sit together for viewing. When you open it, you can see at once what you plan to do today and the directions you want to keep pushing. If you already run on some kind of plan, it cuts the switching cost of hunting for information and brings your attention back to the action in front of you.

For example, driving practice is tomorrow and you need to get materials ready today; you also want to keep slowly finishing a book. Both are worth remembering, but they differ in urgency, in the time they need, and in how they move forward. The workspace puts them behind the same door so you can judge what fits right now.

Tell goals and tasks apart, then decide what to look at

Goals hold the wish to keep moving forward, with your starting reason, task plan, and Cami’s suggestions ready to revisit. Tasks hold the concrete things to do, like putting tomorrow’s materials in your bag. The workspace gives them one shared viewing spot, so the two levels are easier to see together.

“Finish this book” can be the direction; “read the first two pages of chapter three and note one question” is closer to an action. When you look at the workspace and can only recognize the direction without knowing how to start, check the task plan inside the goal first, then confirm today’s tasks. Do not assume a goal needs the whole evening just because it looks important.

Use an ordinary evening to set your own checking order

1. Look at things with a fixed time attached. Find the preparation a nearby commitment needs, and check that the deadline and reminder are accurate.
2. Look at the goals you are pushing. Pick one you still want to continue and confirm its next step is concrete enough.
3. Choose based on the time you have right now. If it is only ten minutes, find a small action you can start or finish.
4. Update what actually happened after you finish. Check the status once a task is done, and for anything you want to keep pushing, return to the goal to see what comes next.

Adjust this order to your own life. When your time changes, describe the new constraint first, then see whether the suggestions still apply. One-stop viewing helps you gather your attention; how much things matter and what to drop is still your call.

When the page is full, check how tasks are written

If every entry looks like one huge project, you will still hesitate before starting. Check whether the task has a clear action, object, and ending point. For example, “get ready for tomorrow” is too vague; “check what to bring and put it in the bag” makes it easier to tell whether it is done. What exactly to bring depends on the actual activity.

Also watch for recording the same thing several times. A goal can contain a set of actions and tasks show concrete work; related content in both places is not necessarily duplication. But if your actual schedule contains repeated tasks, tidy them according to the real state. Look at content and timing before deciding how to adjust, and do not ignore one of them just because the names look similar.

The workspace is for one-stop checking; reviews live elsewhere too

To know why you started and where things go next, enter the goal; to see what actions and moments the day left behind, return to the journal; to look up a category of life data, open the matching miniapp. The workspace keeps daily concerns in front of you, while each place keeps its own more detailed content.

“Workspace” here means the feature inside the Cami product. The name does not mean a phone home screen widget, lock screen widget, or cross-device notes are already offered. When you look for the entry and its actions, go by the current app pages. Nor do you need to rewrite all of life into tasks; tasks only need to hold the things you are actually ready to act on.

The first time you open it, just check three things

• Can I find the things that need advance preparation?
• Does the goal I picked have one action I can start right now?
• Do the completion states on the page match what I actually did?

Once those three are clear, you can simply start. Keep exploring the workspace feature, or use the task creation tutorial to turn vague ideas into concrete tasks. For busy workday planning, see the work and daily routine scenario; for longer wishes, go back to the three kinds of information in a goal and sort them out.
