Filtering helps you to maintain a pipeline of goals, habits and obstacles (the process for managing the pipeline is the same).
Each goal / habit / obstacle can be in one of 4 states:
Pending (at planning stage, but not ready to work on yet)
Active (working on right now; only a limited number allowed to maintain focus)
Archived (finished working on, at least for now)
Bin (to be deleted)
To filter:
In the goal / habit / coaching (obstacle) list view tap the "filter" button.
This shows a pull-down menu allowing you to select "All" (the complete list of that item), Pending (including newly added items), Active, Archived and Bin (marked for deletion).
We recommend for day to day use that Active is selected as a default (to maintain focus) with All being used for Weekly Review (to determine if any items need to change state).
Note that adding a new goal, habit or obstacle will automatically set the filter to All (so the new item can be seen in context).
