Completion Principle
If you do not complete the chain, you will fritter away many of the benefits of completion. It only takes a little overview time and just noting what is of importance and letting go of the rest. (Read Completion.) [It certainly makes no sense to write down notes and then never use them!!! Or to find them to be unusable or unfindable!!!]
The Master Notebook
Keep one notebook with you at all times to capture whatever thoughts, meeting notes, ideas, notes on anything - and thoughts on to dos. See The Master Notebook.
Your daily tickle list will have the task "clearing of the master notebook" on it.
Although a different medium, it is useful to have a device that will record your voice, to write down later what is dictated.
Calendar/Appointment/ToDo Tickle/Reminder System
One system, preferably electronic but all right on paper, where all dates and to dos are captured and managed. (Go here to find the relevant information: Implement These...)
