I often am asked to describe the differences between 1MTD and MYN. Most of you by now know that MYN is a more robust (and more complex) tasks system that handles higher volumes of tasks compared to 1MTD.
One of the key differences is how you use the Over-the-Horizon section.
In 1MTD, Over-the-Horizon is where you keep tasks that can wait quite a while. It is part of the simple urgency-zone structure and is reviewed periodically so that tasks do not get lost.
MYN uses the same basic concept, but combines it with start-date/defer-to-review techniques. This lets you keep large numbers of low-priority tasks out of your immediate working list until they need attention.
The result is that 1MTD keeps the system simple for a relatively small task load, while MYN gives you more control as the number of tasks grows.
