Update on Custom GTD System

This post is an update on the Custom GTD System post.

I've added another element to my posting icons. As you may remember, The ones I currently use are $, ,,. I've added P to the list.

P stands for Project. I use this to designate that I want to start a new project but haven't thought of any Next Actions yet. If I have thought of Next Actions then I'll append an -> after the P and then enter a Next Action. For example:

P Build Shelving unit -> Bring cardboard boxes home from work

If I want to add a Next Action to an already existing project I use the -> after the action name, and then I add the project name. For example:

Get tape -> Shelving Unit

I've also started using N for Personal Note, - is now reserved for multi-line entries:

N Smile!
This is an entry
      - thats spans more than one line.
