One Letter sheet per inbox item?
sud0n1m | May 1 2007
Im currently on chapter 5 in GTD. I've been using actiontastic to capture inbox items and lists on pieces of paper. What I don't get is that one letter size piece of paper per idea seems like huge wastage! Is letter size critical here? Is there any reason not to quarter a piece of letter paper and capture each item like that? I love the idea of GTD, but the paper waste seems.. well... wasteful! 7 Comments

Agreed. I find the idea of one item per piece of paper unnecessary. I use 3 x 5 cards for incoming stuff and I usually have anywhere from 3-5 items per card. I keep track of processing by crossing stuff out when I've entered it into my system. I think the book recommends one item per sheet to get people in the habit of processing stuff one item at a time. » POSTED IN:
