Comments on: GTD, OmniFocus, and Pomodoros Part IV: Translations http://kouroshdini.com/2009/12/14/gtd-omnifocus-and-pomodoros-part-iv-translations/ by Kourosh Dini, MD Wed, 28 Jul 2010 10:45:03 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0 By: Kourosh http://kouroshdini.com/2009/12/14/gtd-omnifocus-and-pomodoros-part-iv-translations/comment-page-1/#comment-1982 Kourosh Fri, 12 Mar 2010 22:04:18 +0000 http://kouroshdini.com/?p=2867#comment-1982 Hi Thorin, I think the Activity List and the Next Actions could also be readily equated. The only issues are how many projects one has, i.e. how many next actions there are and how many of those actions are suited towards doing a pomodoro. There are many times where a pomodoro is simply not how one wants to do a particular type of work. One may then want to look through their next actions list with pomodoros in mind as a way of doing a task. It would be a way of having a type of tool handy towards doing the desired work. One just has to be careful that they are not simply looking for a task to fit the tool, rather than prioritize the tasks as they inherently might need. Hi Thorin,

To me, I immediately equated the Pomodoro Activity List to GTDs Next Actions. What are your thoughts on this?
