PHH	Posted: Dec 17, 2011 From Topic: Projects: do you use "Folders" or "Goals" for projects? No. I have been using TD for several months now (Pro Account). TD is very flexible, and I have experimented several ways to implement a GTD-like system. My current setup uses tasks/subtasks and goals. Tasks/subtasks are used as projects/actions in D. Allen's semantics. If I had to express how I use goals in GTD terms, I would say they correspond to responsibilities and areas of interest (I call them "super projects" : big projects of the year, for instance). I should add that I now use folders to mark status of each action (next action, waiting, someday/maybe,...) because I was not completely satisfied with the built-in status function. I hope this makes things clearer and will be useful.
PHH	Posted: Dec 17, 2011 From Topic: Projects: do you use "Folders" or "Goals" for projects? No idea either. I use tasks and subtasks as described by Folke X, which is probably the main driver to subscribe to pro accounts. I have seen some posts about using goals in the same way as I describe ("super projects", or collection of tasks+subtasks). Many of them also discuss of workarounds to sort the goals (using A,B,C or 1,2,3 prefixes for instance).
PHH	Posted: Dec 11, 2011 From Topic: Projects: do you use "Folders" or "Goals" for projects? Hi I used to use folders for projects, but I have switched to goals. Pro : you can have some hierarchy (shrter term goals can depend on longer terms goals), allowing to build "super rojects". Con : so far, no way to manually arrange the list of goals as can be done for folders (only alphabetical order is allowed for goals in the left bar). Hope it will help...
