actualNoteContentPart: ### 5. Capture tasks from external sources
  For those times when you are not in Amplenote or when you are trying to capture a particular resource as a task, Amplenote offers a few options:

  # More on capture destinations
  Capturing to Daily Jots is great because it removes friction/cognitive effort when you are capturing new tasks. You no longer have to think about the destination, and instead you can do the "Organize" phase of the process later.
  
  That said, with this method, tasks will always be committed to the daily jot corresponding to the day when you captured them. That means that your "inbox" is now scattered across multiple notes. What can I do about that?
  
  Well, Amplenote gives you all of the tools to mitigate that. In fact, storing related tasks in different notes is a scenario that we built into Amplenote by design. Namely, all you have to do to get a centralized view of all of your captured tasks is to navigate to Tasks Mode and select your "daily-jots" tag:
  
  
  
  
  
  When you select "daily-jots" inside tasks mode, you are instructing Amplenote to show you all of the tasks created in notes that are tagged with "daily-jots". This makes organizing your inbox quite easy and straightforward, because you can do it from a single place, not having to keep track of your jots manually.
  
  That said, if you don't like the idea of leaving open tasks behind, you can use the [Jot Suggestion](/help/jots_suggestions)  at the bottom of the current jot to move all open task in the current jot.
  
  
  
  
  
  # What happens during "Organize"?
  If you're wondering what happens with all the tasks you dump in your daily jots, you are asking a good question! The second phase of the IEF process suggest that you set aside some time specifically for "organizing" the tasks that you captured previously.
  
  When organizing your tasks, you should move them to a more appropriate place, such that they are easy to find later on. For example, you might create a note for "house chores", another one for "hobby tasks", and so on. Another action that typically gets done during the "organize" phase is to determine which tasks are urgent or important.
  
  There are many approaches to organizing tasks that Amplenote users have developed, and we will likely explore them in further help pages. For now, take a look at these Community Samplers to get some inspiration on all things "task organization":
