messy fast and sometimes I miss things. I tried to switch to evernote
but that was not a todo system,
I use Evernote as well - that way I have just one place to keep "random stuff".
I will try to make MLO small with a custom view as you have outlined
The keys are you have to (1) put everything that is in your head into
MLO so that your mind will stop worrying about it, (2) review the
"big" list regularly for inclusion on the small one so that you trust
your small list. The rest is just organization....my advice is not
to spend too much time on that part up front, because you'll find
what works for you best over time. Plus, tweaking the organization
every so often is re-energizing :)
A while back, I moved all the tasks that are not "this year" into
"Hide In Todo" branches. My most recent "tweak" was that I went
through and marked all of the rest with a goal of Week, Month, or
Year. I'm using those as general timeframes rather than "THIS week"
-those are my flagged tasks). I review the Week goals along with my
calendar each couple days (I have a daily task for that), and flag
the ones that need to bubble to the top, or unflag ones that aren't
as urgent. Then I made a task to review the Month goals each week,
and another task to review the whole list each month. (I tried to
do the whole list each week ala GTD but got depressed :)
