Eventually, I found a way to solve these problems for me. And it is the strangest way I’ve ever used — I manage my life with charts.

How do charts answer this question?

My tasks are hosted in Trello. I have several boards for each project.

My boards in Trello

However, Trello boards do not answer various questions floating in my head.

How much work is in progress on all boards? How quickly can I accomplish my tasks? How many of them did I complete last month? When will the project be finished?

To find out the answers I need to collect information from various Boards, aggregate cards by a Label, Assigned Members, Due Complete, Name or custom fields like Priority and Spending hours.

The bane of my existence is that I start more work than I can finish.
