It might be that your mind is convinced that it can trust you system but your instinct is not to. To truly trust your system is a habit change - and how hard it is to change your previous habits...
I too use the On Hold-feature to quickly and easily change a project from being an active project to being backlog or someday/maybe. They way it works is that I have my context lists set up to show...
I didn't see anyone mentioning this in this thread, so I just want to make sure that you are aware that OmniFocus can have sequential actions for a project.
Personally, I often set up projects...
I put one item per paper, since that is so helpful to me for staying focused when processing. Sure, I do use more paper than most people with this setup, but paper is still very environmentally...
I agree with this. Having a printed form for each student with all the necessary information for the calls and fields to add any additional new information would give you instant access to vital...
I only use 0.35 in and have never considered needing anything else.
I'm not a sales person, so I'm just throwing this in here: Is, in your world, a customer something that can be completed and done with? Or is it an ongoing relationship? Projects in GTD are outcomes...
Yup, I could do that. In my system though, that would require more rather than less work. Besides, after thinking more about it, I think the main point is a different one. If I do have a project...
For me the MIT would in many cases be a project. Not that I expect to complete the project during just one work day, but making significant progress can also make me feel more sure about having...
I certainly agree on all those points and personally don't have my labeller connected to my mac.
Browsing around for labellers I did however notice a few models that can be used as both with and...
For me that principle would not work. My projects normally don't have a project plan as they are (just as your example) very simple projects. Still, as they require more than one step, I need to have...
Just a few quick thoughts...
If you already have a habit of blocking out time for doing work, then keep doing that. It's a good habit to make sure you have time for work in between meetings....
Yes, basically that is what i do with OmniFocus as my tool. I have all Next Actions tagged with context AND linked to a project, so that I can look at any context or combination of contexts and...
Is this reading a particular book or just reading in general?
Brilliant example with the kitchen sink! Thanks! :cool:
The laundry basket comes to mind as well. I certainly don't have a checklist for doing the laundry either...
Step 11 in the GTD implementation guide (https://secure.davidco.com/store/catalog/GTD-IMPLEMENTATION-GUIDE-LETTER-SIZE-p-16636.php) mentions this specifically, and I'm sure it's in the book somewhere...
How long time does it take for you to file something away?
How long time does it take for you to find something again?
Those are the two important questions in deciding which filing solution is...
I too keep a short list of Most Important Things, as I understand many GTDers do. I update this at least every weekly review and use it as a way of reminding me which big ticket items that most need...
I think it might be worth thinking through thoroughly what the different processes in the company are, and where you expect GTD to help. I am very interested in both GTD and Lean, and tend to see...
