Ok, so I'm trying to get back on track after being on maternity leave for 3 months. I've been cleaning out files and doing mind sweeps. Here is a nagging question: what do I do about 2-step tasks... specifically:
In the mind sweep, I have a number of items that are things like:
- get windows washed
- contact Company X about sponsorship
- etc.
These are really only 2 step projects:
- Step 1: get the contact information
- Step 2: contact the person/organization
Now... from my reading of GTD, I know I can't put "get windows washed" on my calls list (because that's not the next action), but it seems really ineffective to have this on my projects list (specifically, it feels ineffective to me to have 2-step projects next to meatier projects).
Any suggestions?
thanks -- mb
