I don't know I don't consider myself a power user at all with MLO. I never took the time to learn how to make "root" folders and things like that but I feel like I already do something similiar. I end up with about 50 new tasks each and every traditional american work day M-F. my are very similar in some I need to do today..absolutely can't go home until I do, so I need to do this week, some are this month and some are someday. I just control the whole mess using contexts.
so i would approach this with the following contexts @today @tonight @this week @boss @colleague then i have my "to do" tab set to organize by context. now all i have to do is a rapid task entry with a parse of the correct context or a simple assign of the context in the outline or even simpler leave the to do list up and simply click anywhere under the correct context and hit the insert key and i'm done then i'm off doing tasks secure knowing if there is a task under @today i have to do it today etc you don't sound like you need to mess with date or recurrence or anything like that you just need a simple list manager and i can think of no easier way than contexts for that it's just a horizon view not so much a getting things done view. I simply need to know what i need to do today, this week, and this month. I don't have to spend hours figuring out the next step. whats on the horizon is all I need in the case you described. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MyLifeOrganized" group.
