New System
Thursday, July 12, 2007
I've come up with a revised system. Will know in a month or so if it works. It relies on two programs: Memoleaf and PSLink. I could do it with the built in memo app but Memoleaf has so many great features. It makes it a lot quicker to create these memos. And I don't have to link but I am trying to encourage myself to review. Here's how it goes:I have a memo called Inbox. On it, I have links to my context memos and my week memos. The context memos have things only for that context. If it is a dated item, I start out with the date and then the item. Week memos have whatever needs to be done within a certain week. I copy items into the week memos, so they sometimes exist in both a context and week memo. Same thing with project memos. These are where I do the real planning. If I am actually going to work on something during a particular week, I copy it to a week memo.
When Memoleaf comes up, it opens the Inbox memo. I can temporarily add new items here, to be moved to the correct location later. I plan to have links to two week memos going forward and links to the two previous week memos. I can quickly tap on these memos, check the items, and click on a link to go back to the Inbox memo. Links are easily created using the Key Bank. I'm pretty pleased with this idea. If it seems to work out, I will post some screenshots of these memos to clarify this post.
