An Be"This document assumes you've had some exposure to org-mode already so concepts like the agenda, capture mode, etc. won't be completely foreign to you. More information about org-mode can be found in the Org-Mode Manual and on the Worg Site.
I have been using org-mode as my personal information manager for years now. I started small with just the default TODO and DONE keywords. I added small changes to my workflow and over time it evolved into what is described by this document.
I still change my workflow and try new things regularly. This document describes mature workflows in my current org-mode setup. I tend to document changes to my workflow 30 days after implementing them (assuming they are still around at that point) so that the new workflow has a chance to mature.
Some of the customized Emacs settings described in this document are set at their default values. This explicitly shows the setting for important org-mode variables used in my workflow and to keep my workflow behaviour stable in the event that the default value changes in the future.
This document is available as an org file which you can load in Emacs and tangle with C-c C-v C-t which will create org-mode.el in the same directory as the org-mode.org file. This will extract all of the elisp examples in this document into a file you can include in your .emacs file. " -

Sacha ChuaThere's so much more in the manual than in the map, too. =) And pages like https://t.co/n7fgT2WRew are awesome!

I like recommending https://t.co/n7fgT2WRew for a tour of Org awesomeness, too. =) But if you want to start small, maybe https://t.co/pDS6s15h4r ?
