Don't totally understand NAs
mream | Mar 14 2006
I'm new to GTD. Just read the book over the weekend, and spent today collecting and beginning to process. There is still something I don't understand about next actions. Let's say I have a list of 50 projects, and I go through each one and decide what the next physical action is... am I going to end up with a list of 50 actions, work through those, then generate 50 more? Would I be kind of spinning my wheels as I rotate through all 50 projects, rather than focusing on one, and doing more actions on that one? Or am I missing something? When I list NAs, should I list all the NAs I can do on a specific project? Thanks for the help, Matt 16 Comments

Huh. And all this time I thought "NA" stood for "non-actionable." Like all those things that don't require an action, or don't require anything right away (like winterizing your house when it's only March.) When you consider my task list and the length of time most tasks remain on there without moving forward, you could be led to that conclusion. I sometimes am. » POSTED IN:
