This template allows you to randomly insert a task from your "Someday Tasks" list into your daily note. It helps you take quick action on tasks without overthinking what to do next.

How It Works:

  • The template pulls a random open task from the "Someday Tasks" note.
  • If the task doesn’t have a sync marker, one is added to keep it linked.
  • If no open tasks are available, the template displays a message instead.

Use Case:

Whenever you have free time but don’t know what to work on, run this template to get a quick task suggestion. It’s a great way to reduce decision fatigue and make progress on tasks that might otherwise be forgotten.
