“Intermediate Packets” is the term Tiago Forte uses for those small units of discrete work that people of all types of work produce when they work. He broadly categorizes them into 5 categories:

1. Distilled notes (like this one)
2. Outtakes - stuff you made for a project that wound up left on the cutting room floor
3. Works-in-Process - documents, graphics, templates, plans you made during previous projects
4. Final Deliverables - concrete pieces of work you made before, they could become components of future projects
5. Documents from Others - Assets from anyone else, basically
