Please help me. I'm stuck with lost tasks because I'm implementing OF and GTD the wrong way.
Situation: A new task popups in my head. This task belongs to "Project X".
What happens is that I bring up the Quick Entry dialogue, and put the task in Project X, because there is where it belongs.
My problem is that this will now be a lost task. Because I never look into Project X, the task will be forgotten until I accidentally look in Project X.
How are you supposed to not forget these things, if you don't put them in the Inbox? Is this why we need to do Reviews? Or should you wait to assign a project until you look at the task in the Inbox?
Any advise appreciated.
