I answered the poll with "reviewing" as my GTD weakness, but "doing" is a close second. I wouldn't give myself an "A" in anything GTD, yet. I do ok until I get really, really swamped. My boss was on vacation for two weeks, which already makes for a busy stretch, but I was also training someone this week, too. So, if you could see my email inbox right now, it takes up a full screen (and I've been doing really well with clearing that out), and my desk is piled with scribbled notes of undone things (and let's face it, a scribbled note isn't the "trusted system" -- it's something I usually make sure to record at least by the end of the day in Outlook or Bonsai). I haven't done a review the past two Fridays. (This was a great thread idea.) Anyone else want to "confess" the state of their desks or inboxes?
