What I do is mark tasks that can't be done yet as either NEEDSPREREQ or WAITING, or put them in my SomedayMaybe.org file if there's no possibility I'll get to them before my next weekly review. I only look at NEXTACTION tasks when I'm choosing a task to do, and when I complete a task, I look at its project to see if any NEEDSPREREQ tasks can now be done. If so, I change those to NEXTACTION. Yes, it would be possible to annotate these with a hook of some kind so that they are changed from NEEDSPREREQ to NEXTACTION automatically. But my feeling is that doing that would frontload the planning process too much, take just as much time/attention, and overall interfere with getting things done. -- +-----------------------------------------------------------+ | Jason F.
