এক নজরে

PARA is a system for organizing notes, files, and knowledge. Projects = time-bound goals with deadlines. Areas = ongoing responsibilities (health, finances, relationships). Resources = reference material (articles, templates, books). Archives = completed/inactive items. Mastery takes 1-2 weeks. It's a meta-skill; learning PARA makes you better at every other skill (faster to find info, less context-switching, sharper thinking). Non-technical people benefit as much as devs. Adopters report 30% faster decision-making.

Gtd Getting Things Done

❓ প্রায়শই জিজ্ঞাসিত প্রশ্ন

What's the difference between PARA and GTD?

GTD focuses on *tasks* (what you do). PARA focuses on *information structure* (where you store it). GTD = task manager. PARA = knowledge management. They complement each other. Use GTD for tasks; use PARA to organize notes *about* those tasks.

How do I categorize something that fits multiple buckets?

Use *primary context*. If you're researching marketing for a project, it's a Project note, not a Resource. If you're building a marketing playbook for your company (ongoing), it's an Area. The key: where will you look for it first?

When should I move something to Archives?

Projects: Archive when complete or 6+ months abandoned. Areas: Archive when you stop owning responsibility (e.g., you quit your job, that Area goes to Archive). Resources: Archive when outdated or irrelevant. Review Archives quarterly; some resurrect, most stay archived.

Can I use PARA in Notion?

Yes. Create 4 databases: Projects, Areas, Resources, Archives. Tag each item. Filter by tag to see all active items. Link projects to related resources. Works great. Obsidian is lighter-weight for plain text; Notion scales better for collaborative teams.

Should my Projects folder have subfolders?

Minimal. Keep structure flat when possible. If a project is large (e.g., book with 20 chapters), create subfolders. But one folder per project keeps things simple. File names should be descriptive (not 'notes', but 'Launch Plan Q2' or 'Competitor Analysis').
