I actually wrote..."You can take two sheets of paper label one Projects and the other Next Actions." -That is just basic GTD
AND JUST START ALL FROM SCRATCH AGAIN, SHOULD I DO THAT?-I don't know the answer to that question. But I do know you are making this more complicated than it needs to be. I can tell we aren't helping and you are frustrated. I mean no disrespect, but there are some very smart people on this forum with great ideas. They have complicated formulas and procedures and codes for files and tags to cross reference projects with next actions. They have project planning sheets. I don't do that.
to fix the problem I feel i have writing 'plan tommorow ' each day -GTD doesn't plan tomorrow. It organizes projects and next actions in context. I have nothing "planned" tomorrow. But I have many next actions I will do when I'm in the context to do them.
Six years ago when I realized I was working on my system more than getting anything done, I wrote Projects at the top of a sheet of paper. I wrote Next actions on another sheet of paper.
I collected all my projects and wrote them on the sheet marked projects
Then I wrote down the very next action for my projects on the next action list. I worked just like that for about a week.
When I got a significant amount (20-25) next actions, I broke them down into David Allen's Contexts. I wrote the contexts at the top of the paper and then the next action from my next action list on a context sheet.
I worked like that a month and one of my projects was to find a digital app that I could use like sheets of paper.
I eventually settled on apple notes. I have a note (sheet of paper) that says projects.
I have several notes (Sheets of paper) with contexts. I haven't changed this in six years. And I don't add fancy, complicated steps.
I have the very next action in context listed in that context note.
Once I am done with the project, I remove that entry from the project note.
Hope this helps.
this is where you wrote the quote
."You can take two
sheets of paper label one Projects and the other Next Actions." -That is just basic GTD
that's what I literally did - after I had a conversation with my mother in my room
6
showing her my note book - and the type paper binder from
@FocusGuy
where asked her the question ' if she were me ' would she think its better basically - if used the paper binder for type GTD style work
or type note book 'with the plan tomorrow system' i was trying to follow *
and she didn't respond back
'after I shared my inclination to be moved in that moment - towards stopping using my 'plan tomorrow'
and restart again with the paper binder?
that's what I said probably
'like take everything out of it? choose - recycle or actually file away the contents insider the other type of coloured paper cards which
@FocusGuy - wrote to myself about the like 5 maybe different sections
'another 2 minutes passed
Do you understand what I am trying to express here?
some analogy ?
With the feeling of hurt or remorse for example - wanting to do something evil?
being linked to 'deleting or removing something
As if by destroying or writing these types sheets in paper binder #like some with coloured different coloured - sentences
Not ' C P?
"on the old paper which I haven't looked at in ages - it had different colouted coloured sentences for each bullet point - Like a projects or some day maybe list...
"I'm probably overthinking about writing further about the topic in this post reply - AM I?
'Am I God?
