process capture

Table of Contents

As part of my GTD integration, I regularly(and intermittently) schedule sessions to process the captures into actionable tasks and references, which I would deal with further in respect sessions: tasks would be scheduled weekly or daily/casually, references would be reviewed and further processed or discarded in idea review sessions, whether it is Zettelkasten inbox or project/task specific notes.

1. Process

  1. Go to ~/Notes/OrgNotes/capture.org. (SPC n f capture)
  2. process each toplevel subtree.
    • if it is actionable
      1. retrive/design desired oucome and next action (schedule/deadline if applicable)
      2. reorganise the TODO item into a more intelligent form (tags, clear information and link, only useful information…)
      3. refile the TODO item
        • into ~/Notes/OrgNotes/todo.org::ready subtree if there’s no project suitable.
        • into ~/playground/projects/[project]/[todo].org if there’s proejct related.
    • if it is reference
      • reorganise to consice form
      • refile the reference
        • if it is a fact, into ~/Notes/OrgNotes/Reference_files/archives.org
        • if it is an idea, into ~/Notes/RoamNotes/inbox.org
        • if it is related with an project, into ~/playground/projects/[project]/reference.org
        • if it is a resource to check upon later, ~/Notes/OrgNotes/Reference_files/bookmark.org
