Bravo. More than any single other GTD element, I think the concept of contexts is what throws a lot of people off. I know it has for my friends, when I excitedly told them to read GTD.

For me, GTD was always a struggle until I woke one morning and had the epiphany: I don’t work, or think, in contexts. I think my jaw actually dropped when I realized that. I quickly got rid of the @work, @phone, @whatever stuff, and immediately started thinking in terms of projects. The really interesting thing was that there was no learning curve to this change. Within 20 minutes, I felt the true water-like-mind thing ahappenin’. It’s been a pretty groovy ride since (that and configuring Entourage to be my one and only digital tool).

A great series, Merlin. I love the re-focus on GTD. Thanks
