Thanks everyone for your replies about contexts. It was very interesting to see into your minds and how you use the system to fit your life. It was very instructive and helped me tweak my system. Today I wanted to ask you how your day actually looks. When do you process your in-box? Do you do it several times a day, or when something comes in, or when it reaches a certain height? when you are out and about and can't put things into your system, you just jot a note like "make grocery list" or "email Stephano" and then chuck it in your in-box when you get back? Do you write your notes on cards? post-its? in a notebook? do you tear out the notebook sheet and toss that in your in-box? I know that there is no one right way to do it, so I want to see the range of approaches and how it works for you. I think that will help me focus in on how to work my system. I'm doing kGTD, iCal, Eudora mail and a physical tickler file. I don't use my PDA nor a hPDA, only my cell phone. I am not a big fan of paper notes because they never worked for me before, but I am open to it now that I have a "system". Thanks 35 Comments
