Someday/Maybe Project vs Context Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Prev Previous Post   Next Post Next
Hi, everyone.

I'm streamlining my projects and contexts, and I'm stuck on something, and I would love some ideas from the OF community.

(1) Here are a couple notes. I'm experimenting with Energy / State of Mind contexts versus Mac / Online / iPad / Etc.
(2) I enjoy using Perspectives.
(3) I have a Home folder and a Work folder on the Project level.

With that in mind, my question is, Is there a benefit to making Someday/Maybe a context versus a project?

Sometimes I want actions set as Someday/Maybe, but some take little time, a lot of time, or a certain mood. For example:

(1) Read this cool 1000 page book would be when I'm relaxed.
Folder Home > Project Someday/Maybe
Context > Relaxed

(2) Clean out kitchen cabinets when I'm motivated.
Folder Home > Project Someday/Maybe
Context > Motivated

Couldn't I set the Focus to Someday/Maybe located under the Home folder and get the same result as someone organizing Someday/Maybe actions under Contexts? If I set Focus on that project and create a Perspective for all of my contexts, I should only see the Home > Someday/Maybe items. Is there a disadvantage to this approach?
