but if you don't, pick something simpler e.g. Things, any outliner, etc.
If you are asking about no palm anymore, you may want simplest thing possible, which is not omnifocus.
my 3c (inflation).
Thank you thank you thank you!
sometimes in little ways, sometimes in bigger ways. Don't let the GTD guidelines which are there for a reason, prevent you from ignoring them when doing things that way works best for you.
This is silly buy I remember my old brother labeler had some tool (forget what) that made peeling off labels (from the backing) easier. Using one's fingernails (male here) is not optimal and there...
That is a perfectly valid way to do it.
1.
I have no experience with omni so if a simple implementation can be set up

I don't know if it is GTD dogma/protocol/etc but it is one very useful way to approach it and helps keep n/a list smaller.
This goes nicely with dividing someday/maybe into:

I feel MUCH more connected to the money I am spending when I write out paper checks vs e.g. quicken. So for GTD I have used an electronic program (which one has varied) where I can change things...
1. Paper.
2. Things is simple and easy to use use, really short learning curve.
As simple as you can get away with (all the omnifocus users can send hatemail to....)

Someday AKA not this week (or month, etc)
Maybe is the perhaps someday I might want to that David talks about.
A few thoughts:

HI Joe,
Just wanted to say that I really like your system. I may adopt some parts of it myself.
