Implement GTD for college

Author	Message
julian.defronzo	Posted: Jan 15, 2009 Score: 0 Hello all, I am new to Toodledo and to GTD in general (still reading Getting Things Done). I am trying to create a proper set up that works well with a college environment and GTD. Currently, I have the following folders: No Folder (Inbox) Personal School Someday I also have folders for each of my classes I am taking. I am wondering if this a good solution, or is there a better one out there you would recommend. I want to try to stay true with the concept of GTD projects, contexts, etc.

So a mid term paper in class X might have its own folder. You may also want to use subtasks (if you are a Pro) instead of folders in this manner.

Since I have so much e-mail coming in I keep a project list in gmail with GTDInbox which lets me organize all my project reference info that comes in e-form. I then either email or use my firefox toodledo plugin to add tasks to toodledo. I also use nuevasync + google cal for my calendaring. Of course, I also have a paper-based inbox and files which I haven't quite got around to setting up... This message was edited Jan 19, 2009.
