2007 -- Setting goals

So are you the "resolution/goal-setting" type? Do you sit down this time of year and work on a list for the coming one?

How do you work these into your GTD system? When you set a goal: "Finish rough draft of short story by January 20," for example, do you put it on your hard calendar, or just break it down to NAs and move forward?

Pooks, I saw the Analog-GTD...

Pooks, I saw the Analog-GTD thread on this, and I think it ties in nicely with the thread I started the other day: 2007 Resolutions/Goals. Just shows I'm not the only one thinking of this sort of thing. I suppose it's only natural, with it being the end of the year and all.

(I'm just glad I got started on this before February!!)

I think I'll have to take a look at _Your Best Year Yet_, myself. Where'd you order it from?

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
