COD — Collect, Organise and Do.

I recently came across the COD system, it seems fishy but stands for Collect, Organise and Do.

Collect: pull together everything into an inbox. Organise:

1. Is it a task? → to the task manager.
2. Is it an event? → to the calendar.
3. Is it a note or something to reference later? → archive into the filesystem.

Do: Just do it. Do the task, forget about the event until relevant or needs preparing, and forget the note until you need it.
