I'm wondering if there is an article somewhere out there (beyond my Googlefu), that explains the best time-management/life-organization method that can be used with MLO. I really love MLO's list of features, but my todo list has gotten so large and (seemingly) unwieldy (though that's probably

I think it was originaly designed with Getting Things Done in mind. I have used GTD for a long time but it is not for everybody. My copy of the book is heavily marked up. You can find some built in templates by starting a new file and choosing a GTD template. There is no one size fits all,

MLO is great for the Getting Things Done system, with the "Active Actions", "Projects", and "Next Actions" views. I also recommend you give Productivity Ninja a read, great book! Some things I've gotten from Productivity Ninja: get tasks out your head asap (sounds like you're doing that!), and
