@hand

This may be treading well-worn ground, but I figured I could lend my voice to the choir...

For a quick look at the near future, I use an @hand SmartList, with the following logic:

(dueWithin:"1 week of today" OR dueBefore:Today OR tag:ah) NOT tag:hold NOT tag:-bits NOT list:hidden

Tasks that I know I need to complete soon (in other words NOT on hold) but for which I have no specific date get the tag: ah. I have a "hidden" list with sleeping tasks using the z1d, z2d, z1w method as seen on this site. -bits is a tag I use for sub-tasks on occasion.

The above logic gives me everything overdue, due within a week or At Hand without those that are on hold or hiding until a specific day. Handy for planning the close future without getting too bogged down in the details.
