Interesting little tip, if you're using a paper system...

Just got this from someone in our network. Great idea, if you're using any kind of a single-particle paper reminder system...

To help me remember to process paper coming across my desk, I had a red-ink stamp made up with the work "PROJECT" at the top and then below that the list of possible actions from Agenda to Waiting For. Now I can stamp the paper and write on it what the next action is, defer it to another date in my days of the month file, etc. Sometimes I put the stamp on a sticky note if I don't want to alter the document. You have done so much for me I just wanted to share. - Daniel DenBeste

I do basically the same thing on a lined post-it, but hand write each time. What a simply elegant idea - a stamp! What other next actions do you list?

I would dig seeing a picture of the stamp or handwritten variations..

I would love to get a sample of this stamp also.
Thank you,
