The PARA Method: Frequently Asked Questions Answered

I have a list of the 20 most frequently asked questions about the PARA Method, a system for organising and storing information devised by Tiago Forte, the developer of the Second Brain productivity system.

In this video I am going to go through these FAQ’s to help you build and implement the PARA Method for yourself.

The PARA Method is a system to organise information according to when we are most likely to use it in the future. PARA is made up of only four folders which each have a specific role that is going to allow you store everything you capture for use later on.

These four folders are projects for things you are actively working on with a define end date and defined outcome. Areas are things that require ongoing management over a long period of time. Resources are things you have an active interest in or want to learn more about. And Archives are things you are no longer using from the other three folders. These 4 folders are the only folders you need to organise and store information that can be used in the future.

I’m going to go through each of these folders and answer the FAQs for each so feel free to skip to whichever section is going to be the most beneficial to you. There are timestamps at the end of the description!
