Breaking down projects - how big/granular? Thread Tools Search this Thread Display Modes
Prev Previous Post   Next Post Next
I've been using OmniFocus for a year now and have been implementing GTD for about as long - so not quite black belt yet ;-)

I'm often struggling with how much to break down bigger projects or outcomes. Should I make lots of smaller projects and/or subprojects? Should I organize as nested lists? Or just on one level? For example "Publish paper" can be broken down in several sub-projects, each independent and with its own discrete next actions. In this case "Publish paper" would be on a 20,000ft list, but not visible in my projects lists. Or it could just be one project with several possible next actions, but there could easily be many possible "next" actions in this way.

Any help and comments are most welcome!
