User mentions that Collio Chat is working well for them but has some missing pieces. They suggest that improvements could be made to enhance its task execution capabilities, as they find it effective for repetitive client tasks.
spent 3 hours last sunday organizing my notion. color coded tags. automated workflows. custom databases. felt SO productive. then looked at actual client deliverables: 2 forms. that's it. wait what??? spent more time organizing tasks than doing tasks??? that's insane :( calculated it out: time spent on notion/todoist/productivity theater: 12 hours/week time spent on actual client work: 28 hours/week time working: 40 hours total so 30% of my "work" was just... organizing work. not doing work. deleted my whole notion setup. scary af but needed to happen. new system: client asks for something -> i build it immediately -> done. no task tracking. no project management. no productivity ritual. for the actual building i use cursor for custom stuff and collio chat for the repetitive client things (forms, landing pages, bots). chatgpt is good for planning but collio chat actually executes so i don't need to track tasks. results after 1 month: time on "productivity": 0 hours actual deliverables: 31 instead of 8 revenue: $14k instead of $8k free time: actually have weekends now :D turns out when you stop organizing work and just DO work, you get more work done. revolutionary concept i know lol the thing is: productivity tools make you FEEL productive (checking boxes, moving cards, updating statuses) but none of that is actual client output. if your productivity tools take more time than the work itself, they're not productivity tools. they're procrastination with better UX. how many hours do you spend organizing vs actually doing? be honest lmao PS: collio chat is just an example, has some missing pieces, but for me is working well. An alternative is OpenClaw but is more a technical one
