I too have a large number of projects on the go at once and am interested to know how you "format" your project plans section. I'm also in a personal sized ff and am struggling to squeeze in a traditional action plan structure. Any suggestions?

Your original post was the most useful one on the internet for me when setting up my filofax for the first time and trying to figure out how to apply GTD to it. This was about 6 months ago.
