"To allow oneself to be carried away by a multitude of conflicting concerns, to surrender to too many demands, to commit to too many projects, to want to help everyone in everything is itself to succumb to the violence of our times. Frenzy destroys our inner capacity for peace. It destroys the fruitfulness of our work, because it kills the root of inner wisdom which makes work fruitful."

-Thomas Merton

i'll just copy some of my notes here. i'm trying to find a specific application. i've tried the 37signals stuff, stikkit, google-stuff. So far nothing fits the bill very well.

it doesn't have to be all-in-one (like stikkit) but i wouldn't mind. either way as long as it all works as one.

stikkit is so close. but the lack of further development and the inability to display data to people who don't want to start their own stikkit account makes it difficult to keep using.

Plastic 3x5 card bleachers

I'm exploring a geeky office hack. Here's the deal. I'm assistant to my organization's vice president and president. We're in a pretty big building, and my office plus their two offices are hidden off in a far corner.

There are days when people will walk back here six or seven times hoping to catch one of them, to ask a quick question or get their feedback on something small. And every time the bosses aren't in their offices--they're off at a meeting or in someone else's office.

Google Calendar: Slick, but does it sync?

Hello everyone,

I have a question after reworking my system and a year of practice. I have tried to go back through the archives and have not really found an answer. I understand the runway/10K foot (projects) aspect of GTD but not the higher aspect. Where do you keep the 20-50K information in your system? How does visions or goals of paying off a loan or earning x degree trickle down to the runway level? I am missing how the big picture works down to projects and actions for something that might take 5-10 or maybe 20 years.
