Keeping track of projects
awe | Feb 5 2007
Hi everybody, I'm new here, so I hope I'm in the right forum. I've got the following problem: I'm a student in audio engineering and after my diploma I want to go to film school. So right now, I'm pretty busy with creative projects. In fact, I'm kinda overloaded; I've got school projects and papers, commissions, and a whole lot of my own projects that I have to complete in order to qualify for film school. So it's a pretty inmanageable mix... So what I need, basically, is a system to keep track of all my current projects, i.e. what I have to do on which project, the progress and, if available, a deadline. I don't want any fancy applications, all I'm working with is iCal and my Palm. I've found that the Memos in Palm are a good starting point, but I'm having a little trouble organising it all. Anybody got ideas? I'd appreciate it. Alex 9 Comments

This is the exact kind of thing that GTD does. Check out the book; it's a fast read. With iCal and the Palm, the best way is to track your next actions there and keep project planning material and a list of projects elsewhere, for instance in a txt file. » POSTED IN:
