I totally agree with what...
I totally agree with what BigNose Uglyfellow said.GTD is supposed to help us improve productivity. It is the MEANS to an END, not the END in itself which is what it has become for most of us. I tried implementing all sorts of systems including installing (and uninstalling) software on my Treo and PC, but at the end of the day, my most effective solution has been to use a simple notebook and my lotus notes calendar, with plenty of alarms as reminders. On top of that I use the coloured slip covers that you guys recently discovered (how could you have gone without it?). This allows me to do what i need to do rather than worry about the system. From time to time I read the posts here for inspiration, but if I find that it takes too long to implement or if it gets too cumbersome, I just get back to basics. Now all I need is a Moleskin (they don’t sell those babies in Thailand - :( )
