Hello fellow GTDers!

I have recently devoted myself to the GTD system after listening to the seminar audio recording, and spending a lot of time reading most of the book/43folders.com/other personal productivity blogs.

However, I still am not quite clear on everything. Here is an example:

After processing, let's say I have a new project, so I put it in the projects folder. It is "Clean Apartment". I realize that that could easily be broken down into sub-projects of Clean Kitchen, Clean Bathroom, etc.

Do I write out all the sub projects and just put them in the projects folder? Do I write one next action for each project?

Then let's say I have everything out of the inbox and processed in its appropriate place. I look around and tell myself that a cluttered house is a cluttered mind, and I really want to start to work on cleaning up. So, what do I do now? Grab one of the sub-projects and do the next action? Then what will I do? Come up with another next action on the fly?

Basically, do I limit myself to one next action for projects? The real problem I have is whether you take the next actions from the projects and put them then in your appropriate NA folders. But if you did that, how would you know what you were really working on, if everything was all jumbled and you were working on multiple projects simultaneously?

Questions Asked:

1. Do I write out all the sub projects and just put them in the projects folder?

2. Do I write one next action for each project?

3. Do I grab one of the sub-projects and do the next action? Or do I come up with another next action on the fly?

4. Do you take NAs from projects, and put them into context folders? If you do that, aren't you working on multiple projects simultaneously AND wouldn't that give cause for a lot of confusion?

Thanks!
