Keeping track of work projects
At my work, I have my day to day meetings and appointments, but I also have a lot of longer term projects (from my boss and also my own ideas) to keep track of.
I use RTM to keep them out of mind until I have time for them!
I have a #project tag within my Work list, and whenever I think of a good idea, or get assigned a non-time-specific project (often!), I put it in against #project with a due date in the distant future.
Then, whenever I don't have anything to do, I can go into the Work Projects smartlist I've created, see what's there, pick one and set the date to today, and off I go!
This way, I don't forget anything, but projects don't take up my list (and my thinking!) when I don't have time to deal with them.
