# 🎯 Projects
Active initiatives with specific outcomes and deadlines.
## Purpose
Projects are **time-bound efforts** with:
- Clear objectives and deliverables
- Defined start and end dates
- Specific success criteria
- Measurable outcomes
## What Belongs Here
### Good Projects
- "Q1 2024 Marketing Strategy" ✓
- "Website Redesign" ✓
- "Book Writing - AI & Creativity" ✓
- "Conference Talk - BRXND NYC" ✓
### Not Projects (These go in Areas)
- "Health" ✗ (ongoing, no end date)
- "Learning" ✗ (continuous activity)
- "Team Management" ✗ (ongoing responsibility)
## Project Structure
Each project should have:
```
Project_Name/
├── README.md # Project overview and status
├── Research/ # Background materials
├── Daily_Progress/ # Log of work sessions
├── Drafts/ # Work in progress
├── Resources/ # Supporting documents
└── Output/ # Final deliverables
```
## Claude Code Workflows
### Starting a Project
```
Create a new project called [name] in 01_Projects.
Set it up with the standard folder structure.
I'm in thinking mode - help me define objectives.
```
### Project Research
```
I'm working on [project name].
Search my vault for relevant existing notes.
What connections exist to my other work?
```
### Daily Progress
```
Create a progress note for today in [project]/Daily_Progress.
Here's what I accomplished: [summary]
Questions that came up: [list]
```
### Project Status
```
Review all notes in [project folder].
What's the current status?
What are the key insights so far?
What's left to complete?
```
### Project Completion
```
Project [name] is complete.
Create a retrospective covering:
- Objectives vs outcomes
- Key learnings
- What to do differently next time
Then help me archive it properly.
```
## Project Lifecycle
1. **Initiation**: Define objectives, success criteria
2. **Research**: Gather relevant information
3. **Development**: Daily progress, iterative work
4. **Review**: Regular status checks
5. **Completion**: Final output, retrospective
6. **Archive**: Move to 04_Archive with summary
## Tips for Success
- **Start with clear objectives** - Vague projects never end
- **Use the template** - Consistency helps Claude Code help you
- **Log progress daily** - Even "no progress" is worth noting
- **Review weekly** - Keep projects on track
- **Complete or kill** - Don't let projects linger
## When to Archive
Move projects to `04_Archive/` when:
- All objectives are complete
- The project is cancelled
- It's been inactive for 30+ days
- It's transformed into an Area (ongoing)
Always create a summary note before archiving!
