Some tips that may help ...
* A template can be useful to define the structure of a recurring project ... define the template, put it as Inactive, and then duplicate and activate it a new need arises.
* Projects that start off with no known direction or outcome can (and should) be put On Hold until they get an outcome (something defined that will happen at the end) and a direction (a path to make that outcome happen) ... i.e. until they "take off".
* Separate your daily reviews in to two distinct parts. First clear out clutter in ongoing projects and decide whether or not to activate projects that are currently On Hold. Then, set up your plan to handle tasks that are due for the day and tasks that you otherwise propose to do on that day.
* As needed, you can also set up a single, recurring, "in your face" reminder-type action to manually tell you to review your On Hold projects.
