How can I configure my .emacs file to achieve this? I currently have: (setq org-capture-templates '(("t" "Todo" entry (file+headline "~/org/gtd.org" "Tasks") "** TODO %?\n %i Added:%U") ("j" "Journal" entry (file+datetree "~/org/journal.org") "* %?\nEntered on %U\n %i\n %a"))) Also: I would be interested to see how others implement natural planning model in org-mode (I am currently reading Charles Cave's write-up on this) Thanks.
