I also use reminder dates when there is a hard stop for a task. I have the !1-Now tag at the front of the shortcuts bar for easy access on desktop or IOS. This method does require two tag edits as priority changes vs a drag from notebook to notebook. The ! facilitates tag selection in the drop down. I don't use a next actions notebook, I use tags instead, using a prefix of !. Tag search in IOS is reasonably easy since when I press. I have 5 parent tags for projects which are also preceded by a period. I nest any new project tags using the desktop software. How you seperate them, link them etc etc etc.įull disclosure, I use a modified TSW process.

Your opinions on this though would be hugely interesting to read, that is, relating to setting up Projects & Next Actions. And I know I could eventually figure my own solutions out. I will not aim for perfection in this, and I know I cannot have everything exactly as I wish for it to be. I'm just getting into searc syntaxes and kinda feel it's better to have less notebooks or stacks for these searches.

One way I know is to tag each project with it's project name under a Nested Tag named 'Active Projects' but on an IOS device it's not easy to add new projects under a nested tag, so I was considering using a 'Business' stack and a 'Personal' stack and then make a new notebook for each Project with seprate notes as tasks with in that note. I even emailed TSW but had no response, they are probably busy or it is probably outlined clearly somewhere but I have missed it. Just trying to figure the Projects List part. Interested to know how you guys are setting up TSW regards to projects, ie, in GTD terminology, your 'Projects List'. In GTD there is a big difference between a project and a next action, we cannot DO a project, we can DO a next action. This is fine for me most the time, just using memory to link the 'tasks' with the bigger project. I am trying to make TSW work, for those who are aware, with have a pending actions notebook. I do think though, in EN, there must be a simple way. VERY tempted to just accept these are better than evernote for task management and just use 2 apps. I like the idea of using and being familiar with ONE app and not 2, with regards to managing my businesses and personal life.

Meaning, my to do list & notes ALL in EN. Ok so I am trying to keep everything together.
