Haim Korkus on 08 Oct 09The most interesting problem with having detailed To Do List is that the length of the list and the amount of the items in it can create an overwhelming state
To achieve this effect in RTM I use so-called smart lists. First I assign each action one of the following tags:
agendas — meetings, public speaking and most of the things that engage other people.
calls — whenever I need to call somebody.
computer — things I can do on my computer (writing, programming, email).
errands — things to buy, bills, snail mail.
home — everything I need to do at home.
office — as above, but in my workplace.
read — articles, blog post or books I can't read now but I don't want to loose track of.
