Hi Patrick, Thanks for taking time to put down what works for you. A very helpful collection indeed! I too have been experimenting with a number of systems over the years and done much tweaking. There are a couple of things I wanted to share with you and others who read your great whitepaper: 1. I have found interruptions to really cause problems with my ability to focus on tasks and projects and then to try to refocus after the interruption. In today's environment, many of us voluntarily place ourselves in an interruptive setting - such as by auto-checking email frequently and monitoring IM (Interruption Messenger). I've found it useful to admit that these things cause me to lose focus and helpful to create props that quickly allow me to get back to what I was doing with minimal thought. I find it useful for the prop to be physical/tangible rather than digital. For example, a 3x5 card with a sentence or the name of the project you are working on. Placed visibly by your computer, if the phone rings or you need to walk away, you can immediately glance and refocus to jump back into what you were doing with minimal time lost trying to remember. A focus (or REfocus) card is also a great reminder to manage your call or interruption and get off to return to what you were doing rather than going off on a new tangent. I suppose one could create a @FOCUS page in Backpack too, that you'd click on when you were trying to get back on track, but I'd think it would be harder to keep current than a single index card, torn in half and tossed when done or flipped over and re-used to get your maximum 59 cents worth... #2. You and many others I see are using many different apps, each with its own role. I agree that using what works best is key, but personally find it a challenge to remember that one thing is going to be in this app, another in that app etc. I know there is no one-size-fits-all solution and not sure if I'd want one, but it is a challenge for me to go to so many sources and/or switch between them, especially when I am mobile. For example, you use the Pocket Moleskine for collecting. I currently use the large Moleskine graphed and have tabs for frequently used phone numbers area that I refer to several times a day, including when I am away from my computer, so while I can see how NUTDC would be a useful tool (and I've used it), it doesn't replace my quick-refer list. Same thing with passcodes and logins. You did not mention it here, but what app do you use to track passwords and logins? Finally, is this a WordPress template you're using for this blog or a custom design? I like it. Cheers from Portland, Oregon.
