Great, I'm glad to help out! This is the primary reason to implement the system fully by using contexts and doing full weekly reviews - because your mind is not at zen. If you are still tracking...

What's up with the attitude? Completely unnecessary and "useless", too!

You mentioned that you don't need to sort your next actions by context. However, you are using some contexts like Agendas, Errands and Waiting For. So, other than those, you keep all your next...

Where are your contexts? Ie Next actions. The most important part of a gtd system.

It may help for you to think of contexts as more fluid. They're not set in stone. Instead, you should create them and remove them on a regular basis to help your system work FOR YOU. Thus, creating...

If you do a lot with Smith, you can create an agenda context called @Smith and put all waiting for and other Smith actions on it so they are all in one place.

Everyone wants love, health and wealth. But what does that mean specifically to you? In other words, when will you know that you have achieved a health milestone? When you've lost 5 pounds? When...

I have used MobileMe for many years with no issue syncing between multiple computers and devices. However, Apple released a new version of iCal and when I upgraded I not only lost a lot of data, but...

I personally would put the next action call on my Calls list, but then refer to the Agenda during the call. It differentiates between a conscious intention/need to call them versus the random...

It sounds like you've discovered that having a lot of meetings, writing a lot of emails, and getting inbox to zero each day is not synonymous with being productive. Being productive means getting...

You can email stuff directly into omnifocus by using an email alias. I think other GTD software has this ability too.

Here are some tips on what's worked for me to keep work and personal together in one system yet separate and secure:

OmniFocus on all computers (home, laptops, and iPhone)
I set-up OmniFocus sync...

I would suggest working at the action level at first rather than worrying about Areas of Focus vs. Projects for the building sites. In other words, each of the building sites sound like a Context, ie...

Another point to add.
If you work at a company and have to turn a file over to someone else or take a file into a meeting, it's just much more professional.

I use a dymo labeler attached to my...

You don't need to write the next action on more than one list. You're right, that's not necessary. I think some people do that to help them as they're learning to trust their system. Like training...

It seems to me that you answered yourself in your post.

I don't care for the idea of multiple lists all over the place. Too much work. Too much time spent tracking stuff. Come up with a list manager that is portable, goes with you - either digital or...

If you haven't done this already, I'd suggest actually creating a context that holds high-energy actions only, so that you can quickly go through them when you do have the energy.

@high-energy...

The tasks option in Gmail isn't very robust. But here's how I would do it:

Create a different list for each context area, ie a list called @Calls, @Errands, @Office, etc.

Then on that list, add...

I concur with the fish oils suggestion.
