I use three main folders:
Inbox (for new ideas and single actions) Someday/Maybe (things I may want to do in the future) Waiting For (Waiting for John to respond to my email) A fourth should be here, but I use evernote for this: Agenda's (things to talk about with people) eg: * Lindsey: plan vacation, present brother * Neighbour: broken fence The rest of my lists are all independend projects (and projects need more than one step to complete) eg: Brother's birthday: * Call brother ask for wishlist (context phone) * decide on present (context agenda) * buy present (context errand) * Write card to go with present (context home) I do not use lists to divide between work / private tasks because David Allen says he sees everything you need to do as 'work' and it doens't really matter who you do it for (and I agree with that). Contexts are equally important to folders: what can you do right now? If you're on a phone you pull up the list of the phone context and see all phonecalls you need to make. If you're at the office you want to know what you can do / should do at the office. This message was edited Aug 27, 2008. |
