What's the best way to refresh your To Do list in OneNote?

[Greg Trapp]

I've just completed half of my To Do list and now I'm ready to add more items
and re-prioritize for the next week. What's the best way to do this?
Duplicate the current page? Create a new new page with just the new To do's
and then summerize? Thanks.

I would right click on the page tab of the page on which your To Do list is
located and select Copy.
Click on the new page icon.
On the new page, right click and select Paste.
Then you can erase the completed tasks (very satisfying) without losing the
undone tasks. By putting the to do lists on different pages, you still have a
record of what you've done in the past.

We all wish we had half our to do lists done.

Some of us wish we had a quarter of our to-do list done.

Greg,

Lori has given you one way which should work nicely.

If you need to keep information for longer you might think about
another option.

Each page is a month. Create a subpage for each week that begins in
that month.

So, if you like that structure, copy this week's list to a new subpage
and also copy it to a new subpage with next week's to do list. The
edit the list for next week.

Then when a new month starts simply create a new page (Ctrl+N) for
December.
