New Checklist Feature in Google Docs!

Have you ever worked within Google Docs and thought….”wow, this document could really benefit from having a checklist!”

That’s a normal thought right?!

Well, I’m hear shout it from the rooftops that it’s now an option!

Yes, my friends, it’s true. Google Workspace (formerly called GSuite) added Checklist as an option of a bulleted list or a numbered list. 

You can create a checklist and when you click the cute little box it also crosses off the task…so satisfying, right?!

I’ve already used this for a big braindump to list out what still needs complete out at the shop and was able to break down each project into a list of small tasks.

I also used it in the homework section of my coaching clients’ follow-up notes and to break down my workflow for our Hatchery Community Strategy Sessions before putting them into Asana. 

Yes, I’m in love and I don’t care you knows it!

Example 1:

Seeing a big project broken down into smaller tasks helps it not feel so overwhelming and then I can easily see which tasks need to be delegated.

Example 2:

Coaching clients who receive follow notes via Google Docs are able to go in and check off their homework tasks!

It really can be the little things when it comes to new features that help you feel on top of things!

If you’re a Google Workspace user, have you utilized this new feature yet?
