Back on the wagon weekend: 55 Next Actions

0
0

Tried a new format of GTD inside Evernote. A single page that has the following sections:

Next Actions Page

Today:

  1. sssssss

This Week:

  1. yyyyyy

Eventually:

  1. uuuuuuuu

Waiting for:

  1. jjjjjjj

Shopping For:

  1. Amazon.com
    1. Thing 1
  2. Home Depot
    1. Thing 2
  3. Thrift store
    1. Thing 3 (or 2 or 1 if they have it)

Mind Sweep:

  1. Project 001
  2. Project 002
  3. Project 003

Done:

2/25/2018

  1. Next action completed 1
  2. Next action completed 55

I’m loving this format. When I catch myself worrying, I mind sweep the worry out of my head into the section above. When I feel a shift from writing down, I indent next actions underneath the projects, for example:

  1. Project 001: Get Cable Internet into Church
    1. Call cable company to research whether they will want to come in under ground or from a power pole.
    2. Figure out the best entry point for ground or pole
    3. Meet R. and plan out where the modem/router will go.

Then once I feel like I’ve got all the next actions I need for the project, I cut the next actions from the mind sweep, and paste them into Today or This week or Eventually.

On the weekend of 2/25/2018 I was able to burn through 55 next actions. And I’m really back on the wagon!
