Use the "someday/maybe" list for future tasks from "summary" of Getting Things Done by David Allen

The "someday/maybe" list is a powerful tool for capturing ideas, projects, and tasks that you want to revisit in the future but are not ready to act on just yet. This list allows you to offload these items from your mind, freeing up mental space for more immediate tasks and goals. By keeping track of these future possibilities in one place, you can ensure that they are not forgotten or overlooked. When adding items to your "someday/maybe" list, it's important to be selective and intentional. Only include ideas or projects that truly interest you or align with your long-term goals. By curating this list thoughtfully, you can avoid cluttering it with irrelevant or half-hearted aspirations. This will make it easier to review and prioritize the items on your list when the time comes to revisit them. Regularly reviewing your "someday/maybe" list is key to ensuring that you stay engaged with your future possibilities. Set aside time periodically to go through the items on your list, considering whether any are now feasible or worth pursuing. This process can help you identify new opportunities, spark creativity, and reignite your passion for long-term goals that may have been put on hold. As you review your "someday/maybe" list, be prepared to make decisions about each item. Some ideas may no longer resonate with you or may no longer align with your priorities. In these cases, it's important to be willing to let go and remove these items from your list. By decluttering your list in this way, you can focus your attention on the ideas and projects that truly matter to you.
  1. The "someday/maybe" list is a valuable tool for capturing and nurturing your long-term aspirations. By using this list effectively, you can stay connected to your dreams and goals, even when they are not immediately actionable. This can help you maintain a sense of purpose and direction in both your personal and professional life.
