Interesting experiment - Number of active projects

I do it for simplicity. My system is very simple. Have I ever had concurrent next actions? Yes. But during my weekly review, I eliminate all but the next action.
@fooddude Let's assume you have a project: "My family history described". Your grandparents are divorced and you want to interview both of them. You've got two obviously independent Next Actions: "Call Grandmother to schedule an interview!" and "Call Grandfather to schedule an interview!". Which one will you eliminate from your @phone Next Actions list?

Either one. I can only do one next. I would probably Call grandma first. When I'm done I might immediately call grandpa. If I don't it would go on my @phone list for when I come back to it. I don't have a list of all next actions for a project either. That way when I stop I can just put the very next action on my context list. If I don't, I will pick it up during my next weekly review.
