A while ago I came across some questions to consider everytime that I do a review of my tasks. The problem is that I've attached the questions to a task in OmniFocus and -honestly- I don't think it's helpful to do something like that unless I think and write about it.
-
Is this system trustworthy? If not, why not? Do I need to make better backups?
No, there are two major problems with the personal productivity. The first is that I don't schedule enough time for something. How can I finish a task when I don't make any time for it. Secondly, I don't do enough positive reviews. I need to do a review every day to make sure that tasks don't fall through the cracks and I don't overwhelm myself. I find most of my reviews are when I'm under the gun. Not a good thing. -
Is there a next actionable task? Can it actually be readily done?
Yes... for the most part. I have a couple projects that have items like "Brainstorm next action". -
When do I anticipate looking at this next action’s context?
This goes back to the first question. -
What will this project look like when it is done? Depends on the project, baby.
-
When do I think I’ll need to see this project again?
That also depends on the project.
