How to implement GTD for university students
Lilly252 | Jan 15 2006
Hello all, This weekend I took out seven HUGE trash bags out of my office after cleaning everything hidden in every corner. I had boxes that had never been unpacked from four moves ago that are GONE! What a liberating feeling! I don't have my tickler file set up, but have my someday/maybe and my "next actions" set up. The entire office is set up like a GTD Central Command. I had been using the Hipster last semester before life took a weird turn. Anyways.... the reason for my question is this... I'm a doctoral student, and as such I have weekly assignments for classes, papers for the semester, and some independent projects that I"m working on like grant proposals, etc. I keep wondering what the best way of keeping track of everything, and I can't come up with anything concrete, so I thought I'd consult with the experts on this board. Thanks! 61 Comments

Charlotte, Phinished.org is my savior. have been using the board for at least seven years now (from MA to now PhD). I agree with you that the system should work with academic research. I just haven't found anything to support that. I have been collecting articles on my topic of research for the last 17 years. Some of the material is just not accessible electronically anymore. So, what do I do with that? I guess I can scan them, but that's just too much time wasted. On the other hand, am i fooling myself that one day I will go back and actually use that information? Yikes! :eek: I'll reply some more tomorrow when I've had some sleep. I just wanted to reply quickly to this post before calling it a night. » POSTED IN:
