Delegating to future self is a gem. Great article. I’m going to revisit my whole system soon and this will help a lot.

An Oblique Strategy:
Discard an axiom

STAY IN THE LOOP:

Inbox Zero

The original 43 Folders series looking at the skills, tools, and attitude needed to empty your email inbox — and then keep it that way. Don’t miss the free video of Merlin’s Inbox Zero presentation.

Get Started with ‘GTD’

David Allen’s popular productivity book and the system on which it’s based help turn ‘stuff’ into actions that support valuable outcomes.

43 Folders is powered by Drupal, which rules. Our site was designed by a bearded fella from Wire and Twine and has been lovingly skinned for Drupal by the code ninjas at RoopleTheme. Ben Durbin is the sine qua non and our personal consigliere. 43f’s web hosting is sponsored by A2.
