I'd recommend creating several profiles and trying out each template, then picking and choosing the things you like from each one.
In my outline, I have top-level folders for Work and Home, as well as a couple others. Under Work I have several other folders, including a Work Inbox. Also make sure you play around with contexts, because sometimes a task doesn't fit neatly into a hierarchical structure. For example, painting the living room might be a project, but it also involves buying paint. If you add the @HardwareStore context, then you can search on that context and get not only the "Buy paint" task, but also "buy toilet flapper" for that leaky toilet.
