I get thrown off now and again with the definitions being so grey! Thanks for the input. I get muddled up sometimes when doing the workflow but maybe that's just me wanting to get it perfect.

When David Allen talks about 'organize' in his GTD book he refers to Trash, someday/maybe, reference, Calendar, Next action, projects and project plans. Am I right to think Organize also involves...

Yes your on point, As i've expanded in my explanation to Katherine, I created areas of focus for the different things i need to be on top on, and each of those sections have a list of projects, next...
