GTD 'Visual' for Digital or Paper . . . ?

Sure, why not? Some people perceive all-caps as “yelling” but if you don’t, and it’s useful to you, go for it. I often use a question mark when the next action is a go-no go decision: “clean leaves off porch roof?” or “schedule time this week to clean university office?” Other people add abbreviated project names or other information, as in [Manhattan Project], Go wild, people.

Thank you for your good GTD encouragement

Ps. Also, using spaces for ongoing P R O J E C T S to distinguish from PROJECTS that have completion in sight . . . clear lines decrease numbness as also the good David Allen appropriately expressed

Likewise, using spaces for ongoing N e x t A c t I o n s like increasing w a l k i n g to distinguish from one-&-done Next Action(s) like a random Thank You card


Again, thank you very much

As one sees how GTD fits best. . . .

I could write “WF enough leaves on porch roof to clean off” if that’s better. The other one is a reminder for weekly planning: I’m not going in to work just to clean my office, but if I am going in to hear a talk, then I will try to make extra time for this ongoing effort. I’m flexible, but others need not be, :)
