I started with this: https://trello.com/b/2f37iYzy/sample-gtd-board

Then I made some alterations to fit my lifestyle.

For one, there's a giant "Homework" list with all of my assignments for the semester and due dates. This helps me make sure that on any given day, I know whether an assignment is coming up. I sync this Trello list with my Google calendar, which sends me an email reminder the day before something is due.

I have a "Now" list that keeps track of my current task and my next few immediate tasks (so like, "fix this bug," "do flashcards," and "call Doc to make apt.") Sometimes I couple this with Pomello (http://www.pomelloapp.com/) which helps prevent me avoid going down various rabbit holes when working on a specific task.

There's also a "Dragons" list which is where I put important big tasks that I've been procrastinating.

I removed the project lists. My GTD board is strictly a sophisticated to-do list. Projects get their own separate trello boards.

EDIT: here's a skeleton example of what my GTD board looks like: https://trello.com/b/Y5wBPXLH/kendalls-gtd

I also think Trello is a great solution for GTD. But I've always felt the need to have a clear overview of all projects (boards) so I've made this little tool https://workflow.pm Basically it brings all your cards from all boards in a single dashboard.
