I am doing postgraduate study, have two jobs and sit on a few committees so perhaps this busy-ness is reflected in my system. I use an ever-growing collection of org files, all stored in the ~/org/ directory.
Each file falls into one of the following categories: - a single project - "diary" file for one-off tasks and appointments that don't fit into a project - reference material - lists of lists Regarding projects, I have a projects.org file that links to individual project files. The project list is divided into different domains of life (personal, job 1 and job 2) and further divided into current/active projects, closed/archived projects and deferred/postponed projects. Most project files have the following level 1 headings: - Actions - Diary - Notes Actions can be further subdivided so I might have something like this: * Actions ** TODO code X *** TODO ask Y what he means by "Z" I use tags like "waiting", "delegate" and people's names to identify actions that depend on other people. The diary section combines future appointments with notes relating to past appointments. The agenda view is essential for drawing all these separate files together and giving me an overview of what I should be doing at any time. All of the files are stored in a CVS repository.
