The “untagged” search finds those notes (notes with a To Do box but without tags).

Hi Ruud,

This is a good setup which I am trying to implement.

I have a question. I don’t see here a placeholder like “Inbox”. When you initially collect stuff where is it going in this setup?

What you presented here seems to be already “Processed” with the appropriate tags assigned to each item/note.

Cheers,
Virgil

On Windows the first line of the note automatically becomes the title *unless* you specifically set a title. So yes, I write that line only once.

Hi Ruud, thanks for impressive and easy to follow setup instruction. For sure will help me a lot.

The printscreen of your morning routine made me laugh out loud. I could totally picture you, after sweeping the floor, changing the wallpaper in the living room everyday :o)
Was a bit disappoimted when, after a second, I got what you really meant. Would be so cool to have a redecorated home every day…

Thanks again, think your instruction will be a life-changer for me.

Kind regards, Babs

Ruud, beautiful set up. I am very excited about it. I am new to using Evernote, but am a long time GTD user. So from looking at some example tasks you have in the original article I see that the task title is the same as the context in the note minus the check box. Are you having to enter that information twice or does the note title populate (when left blank) with the information from the context? If so, how do you do that. I am a Mac user.

Thx. Bill.

Ah yes. The same is true for the Windows version by the way; you can drag & drop in either direction

@Annie. With the MAC it is very simple to assign tags to your notes. You don’t need the tags list. Just make a selection of notes you want to tag -> drag and drop the tags from the left of the screen to the notes and you are done. With OSX most of the functions are drag and drop.

[...] Ruud Hein’s 15-minute guide to setting up Evernote for GTD (no notebooks, only tags). This is somewhat cryptic unless you are already familiar with both GTD and Evernote, but it’s an interesting setup, and emphasises using Saved Searches. [...]
