Next Action Verb Specificity Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Prev Previous Post   Next Post Next
During my weekly review, I make it a point to scan my next action list for verb specificity. I have a tendency to be too vague, and use project verbs like "finalize" and "implement." When I see these words, it's a red flag that tells me I haven't yet broken a project down into actionable tasks.

I just posted an Applescript to the OmniFocus Extras forum that checks tasks against a master list of appropriate next-action verbs. Apologies for the cross-post, but I'm interested to hear whether this idea has enough merit to be formalized as a feature within OmniFocus.

Thoughts?
