First, excuse me if my poor English proficiency may make you think I'm talking a rough way, it's not my intention.
It sounds like you'd want MS WORD Tutorial to explain you how to write a thesis. First, learn how to write a thesis, then write it in Word, you'll see a lot of features for which the help will help. Why don't you simply learn how to use GTD in GTD forum. The next step is how to implemant it. You have the choice : paper or computer. The same way it is not necessary to explain you how many sheet of paper you could use to put in the inbox panel, there is no necessity to explain (ie "constrain") you that you first have to put your tasks in the inbox, then regularly chek your inbox and empty it by moving your task toward differents projects, asign context, due date if necessary, etc. All this is still "how to use GTD", not "How to use MLO". Then, imagine that MLO is a system of list that you can cusomize your way. If you want to put all the project under a folder, or differents folders, or whatever, it's just your way. But it is still GTD. Olivier Le jeudi 21 novembre 2013 16:00:27 UTC+1, Saumil Vyas a écrit : > > I liked the software a lot and that is why I spent some time and money for > it.
