Scan your Next Actions lists any as often as you can, and at least Weekly in the GTD Weekly Review.

In practice, here's what I do. Day-to-day I'm always looking at my Calendar and driving my Inboxes down to zero. When I have windows of time, I'm toggling over to my Tasks and seeing what else I can do, including those with due dates and without. I'm not only driven by due dates in my choices, as sometimes my context or energy might be more relevant factors in the moment.

As an Outlook users, you can have your items due today appear at the bottom of your Calendar. There's a window you can adjust at the bottom of a daily page. Tasks with today's due date will appear there, as will overdue items. Those won't translate to your BlackBerry Calendar, due to BB limitations.

We also recommend sorting by due date in Tasks, as described in our GTD & Outlook Setup Guide: https://secure.davidco.com/store/cat...-p-1-c-263.php
