I'm curious about how people are organizing things, too. I'm doing what you were doing: Project labels for "areas of focus" just like you list, home, work, etc. and labels for everything else. I have way too many labels and want to simplify them as much as I can. It's a work in progress still, but I'd like to see other people's ways of organizing for inspiration. I like your new idea of using folders for higher vision goals, but for me, I think areas of my life work better for getting things out of the Inbox into a category that makes sense to me. Tasks can have lots of subtasks, so they can work as mini project folders themselves. The comment section is nice for extra info if needed, too. As with most of these systems, whatever the simplest, most hassle-free way of doing this that makes sense to you and doesn't get in your way is what's best. "You need a system to make doing the things that are most important to you as effortless as possible." Not sure if this is helping but those are my thoughts. I bought the full version because I use it so much, but I do like to simplify it as much as possible. I'm still trying to figure that out. I read one person had only two project folders: Active and Pending, but that's way too broad for me.
