One of my New Year's...
One of my New Year’s resolutions (!) is to be a GTD born again. A couple of thoughts on David and GTD. I’ve yo-yo’ed quite a bit on fully implementing the system, but having the insight from your sight and the 43folders groups really helps. (Consider that a testimonial.)
Some thoughts on GTD: 1. I don’t think he is a geek nor does he really understand technology. He is a businessman and comes at technology from that perspective. Thus you’re points about always on and instant access to data are not really anything that I have seen him address. Outlook, Word and the Palm are about as techie as he gets.
I long for a GTD for teams—I think he addresses it slightly in the sense that GTD in many respects is about delegating and tracking projects, but looking at how GTD could be implemented for a project team would be superb.
I know he is in the business of selling books and seminars, but I would like to know more about success stories (and failures) of the GTD systems. Too much of GTG and Ready for Anything is about David hisseslf and how he implements GTD.
I agree with the whole tinkering with the system thing. I tend to do that too much as well.
Anyway, Merlin Happy New Year and keep up the good work.
