I'm often running into a problem where I brainstorm tasks that need to happen for a project but they're not necessarily the immediate next action. E.g. I need to make a phone call at some point but before I make the call I need to get more information from a coworker. I know at some point I'll need to make the call, and talking to my coworker won't necessarily be a trigger for making the call in all situations, so I want to track it somewhere but if I track it in my next-actions list it takes away from the benefit of having only immediate next actions in my lists.
I've tried keeping it in Someday/Maybe but I feel like I don't surface tasks like this soon enough if I only read through them once a week; similarly I've tried keeping them in project reference but I run into the same problem.
Does anyone have any suggestions about ways to manage this?
