Using the Outline: Working Lists

This last set of filters is for when my PDA either discharges itself or dies, and I am without a PDA for a given amount of time. I use these lists to see what my current projects are, and my current actions.

Flat NA linked

This is a display of those Next Actions that are linked into my task list. The difference here is that they are not sorted by project or area of focus, but by the priority I have assigned them. In theory, I should be spending the most time on the 1s, next the 2s, and finally the 3s.

Flat Projects

I use this project list to see what I have going on at a given time.

Someday/Maybes

This list is all the items I have stashed under someday/maybes. About every two months I go through this list, deleting those maybes that no longer appeal, and moving items from somedays to maybes and vice versa. This keeps me in touch with the things I might want to do, and to find things that will further my goals.
