...I printed out my Next Action lists from Outlook (by context) and off I went.
The thing is, I noticed a very significant increase in my productivity - somehow it was much quicker crossing off NAs as I achieved them and writing down the next NA in the appropriate context as opposed to wrestling with the Software (I counted 8 mouse click just in editing a task to the Next Action and changing the context)
Also everything seemed much clearer in my own mind - it was almost like some part of my pyche had been freed up allowing me to be more focussed on what the Next Action was.
My question is this - has anyone implemented a combined PDA/Paper system where the PDA is used entirely for Reference (including Contacts, Calendar, Project Lists, A-Z etc) but the Next Actions are done entirely on paper?
I have seen lots of Posts where paper is used for taking notes but not for managing Next Actions.
