Myriam, yes you are correct. I do include the song title in the task name, creating a link. I meant to say that I usually do not add multiple tags to make that connection. With RTM, some users make...

mostin, you may want to refer back to an old thread that I started back in 2003 and it was revived in 2007

From that thread...
Pav, a couple of thoughts, from a similar experience in a past job (6 directs x 70-100 indirects)
The likely reality is that a majority of delegated projects are getting done. Try to focus on the...
Ranny, thanks for the reply. I think what I was trying to convey was my hesitation to go back to Outlook. I was hoping here might be a "better tool" with the ability to nest tasks and projects. After...
I am looking to change my GTD implementation, hopefully for the better and for the long term. I know there is a tendency amongst the GTD set to constantly churn thru variations in GTD...
Thom, thanks for resurrecting this old thread. In the last 2 years I have cycled back and forth from pure paper-based systems to more top heavy lists in Outlook, Excel and now the web app Todist. I...
watchthatpage.com is also useful for batching up and viewing changes to web pages that do not have RSS updates.
I would suggest getting the hand written notes into some type of electronic format but not to make it to complex.
CRM's like salesforce could work. However the licensing costs could be...
I use Outlook as David recommends with the default Contacts, Notes, Tasks and Inbox folders. I created a new folder at the same level called Weekly Review.
File - New - Folder - use the drop down...
For my weekly review I use a simple check list. Some items are borrowed from David's list. Some from others.
I have a reoccuring calendar reminder for my weekly review for Friday AM and Sunday AM....
Mike, when I first implemen the Inner Game Goals and Journal 12 or 13 years ago, I kept it paper and pencil. While I did forward uncompleted things to subsequent weeks, the act of getting things down...
Mike, I wanted to explore more of the details of how you organize and connect your various levels of goals with projects. I have ordered the Effortless Mastery book that you mentioned. It sounds like...
I've tried doing this when I see a my Next Actions growing in particular context. It helps me to feel less overwhelmed if I see that I have 25 or 30 NAs but the sum of the time to do them would be...
Mike, thanks for the great reply! I have Zen Guitar in my stack o' books. I'll dig that back out.
I was wondering if there are any musicians in this forum and how you are applying GTD to learning and performing music. I am well beyond the "learn an instrument" phase. I have been playing guitar...
Cheryll1, I once tried filtering newsgroup and listserv email to other folders but I found I really let that get out of control. I ended up canceling those subscriptions. For me, the few inboxes I...
I find myself using paper and pen to capture notes. If you extract out all actionable items into your electronic system, from your written notes you could opt to file these notes into your paper...
I have been putting the GTD into practice for over a year now. I work for an IT consulting company. I have 6 direct reports. My team's role is to provide customer service and quality assurance for...
Michael thanks for the reply. Maybe to clarify more what I am trying to get would help.
I have a tendency to name the same project differently - at least I have in my previous implementations of...
Regarding the PigPog method, has anyone found a way to parse out the project names into a seperate list?
I'm using basically a plain vanilla approach, Outlook 2003 and Palm m500 with no add ins on...
