CDPATH tells the cd command to look in this colon-separated list of directories for your destination. My preferred order are 1) the current directory, specified by the empty string between the = and the first colon, 2) the parent directory (so that I can cd lib instead of cd ../lib), 3) my home directory, and 4) my ~/projects directory.
There is 1 alternative - vote for the best!

Can't resist to comment..

Careful, CDPATH tends to mess up projects using Automake/Autoconf!
