Turn Gmail in GTD system using multiple panels
Productivity Web Services / / December 23, 2019
If you follow with the development of Gmail, you can not help but notice that the Gmail Labs has recently provided us the opportunity to have multiple inbox panels on the Gmail homepage. This can be handy if you are collecting mail from multiple addresses. But who prevents us to use this opportunity to install the GTD system, which in Gmail can be implemented in different ways.
For example me to implement GTD seem the most appropriate ways of these new additional panels. Why?
I will explain. Opespecheniya for maximum performance to insulate themselves from unnecessary information and because the screen is worth seeing only the necessary. For me it is obvious that to see constantly, I would like a list of "trace cases", the list of expected me (not to miss the necessary reminders) and actually to parse inbox. That is why my installation GTD will look like three panels:
When planning I turn into projects and contexts, which are represented by the marks, starting with # and @, respectively. It was there that I mark the following steps mark «! Next».
Tasks that depend on someone else to receive the label «Waiting». And I see them immediately at the sight of the central page of Gmail. Namely to facilitate the determination of its following I made a list of «! Next» and «waiting» above the Inbox, thus underlining the need to focus on the task at first.
However, my method may seem inconvenient, since you're using something different. Share your experiences in the comments.
