For that reason, I take time at the start of each month to choose suitable projects to work on and scope them to ensure I finish them as efficiently as possible. Many of my projects are large and require multiple next actions to complete. If you’re like most readers, you likely work full time and have extracurricular interests in your free time, such as learning a new language, volunteering for a nonprofit, or building an online business. Lastly, if something is not actionable-regardless of whether it will take two minutes or less to complete-delete it or move it to Read/Review, Reference, or Someday/Maybe. Rather than complete them both, I added a project to my Someday/Maybe list called “Improve Words Into Works Landing Page.” I then added the two next actions as a reminder for when I scope the project and prioritized the project as high. “Rename Bullets on Words Into Works Landing Page.”.“Add Words Into Works Testimonials to Landing Page” and.Using a recent personal example, I noticed I had two similar next actions: If more than one action is required-as is the case with “Write an Article on How to Set Up GTD in Notion,” a project I’m running currently-move it to Projects. If an item is actionable and will not take two minutes or less to complete, move it to Next Actions. One quick win is if an item is actionable and will take two minutes or less to complete, do it immediately. Then, once a week, review and process your inbox. The Inbox is where you capture and collect everything that has your attention, including articles you want to write, purchases you’re considering, projects you might pursue someday, and everything in between.Īnytime you have an idea-add it here. However, my template is available for free as part of my course, Getting Things Done with Notion. I’m regularly updating my setup based on new Notion feature releases so I’ve chosen not to make it available here. Note: I’ve been asked if I can make my template available.
