In a couple of other threads, especially as it relates to comparison with Things, there are mentions of the difference of conceptually approaching task management from a task vs a project paradigm.

The task paradigm is described as tasks are actions and these are grouped into projects. Projects are almost analogous to folders. The focus is on the task. The suggestion on the other threads is that this is the approach that Things takes.

The other approach is that we undertake and accomplish primarily projects. And these are comprised of tasks. It is suggested that this is approach taken by OmniFocus.

My questions are do people think this is a valid distinction? Is it a valuable distinction? Do successful users of OF think primarily in terms of projects, which are accomplished by completing component tasks? Or do you think (and focus on) primarily on tasks, which when completed result in accomplishment of a project?
