Projects and Actionable Content - Everything linking to an active Omnifocus item goes here. I’ve split my project and reference material into three Devonthink databases: I use Omnifocus for project and task management and Devonthink for reference material. How do you organise your general reference and project reference materials? and finally - yes I know that I will not find the "perfect" system and that I need to try something out and adapt as I go - but at the moment I seem to have simply hit a wall. Where do fleeting thoughts / musings live vs literature notes or Zettels (ala Sönke Ahrens).Do you draw a clear line between project & general support files and your project & general support notes?.what do you do when a project support material becomes general reference?.how do you distinuish between project & general support materials?.So some questions to try and summarise all of this:
#The brain 9 software vs devonthink vs how to#
Again the major problem being that I feel that there are so many articles out there dealing with how to create notes but not how to store them, or more importantly how they integrate / are separated from other materials. Over the weekend I also discovered Tiago Forte and his PARA method of organization, which also didn't aid in my dilemma - although I do really like his concept of "progressive consummation" and am keen to try this together with a Zewttelkasten. Over the recent months I have been reading up on Zettelkasten, which I like the idea and sound of very much but battle to see the distinct lines between this knowledge and that of the traditional GTD categories of general reference & project reference materials. And yes, exactly as David mentions in his book - not having this locked down & seamless creates a huge bottleneck - welcome to where I am now.Īt the moment I'm hesitant to read or create any new notes / knowledge as I am just to overwhelmed with where to put the stuff - and better yet find it later. I have been doing GTD for a few years now, but have never seemed to come up with a suitable reference filing system that has stuck.
