Palm and your pills
It's rare that I pass on info about other people's stuff (I get requests daily), esp. if I don't use it. But this testimonial e-mail I just received sort of rang my bell...
Thanks so much for the "jump-start". My working environment is back in working order again. My filing system (previously non-existent) has improved dramatically and I'm feeling muuuuuuch better. Your GTD system is so simple and logical, I became an instant believer. As a pharmacist, turned Palm software developer, I have to juggle a ton of creative ideas and marketing projects. Figuring out "what to do next" hasn't always been easy, but it's certainly easier now. I knew we were 'kindred spirits' when I read that you're also a Palm-user. I never leave home without my Treo 600 smartphone on my belt, and a Zire 71 with IR keyboard in my purse (that's my laptop now!). Your "capture every brainstorm" concept is terrific!. Now I feel vindicated when I get my Zire and keyboard out, so I don't lose any of those "goodies"! Some people may think it looks a little "nerdy"...! But many a brilliant brainstorm has hit me in restaurants. As I was typing an idea, a young busboy stopped by and said, "Wow! That's so cool!" I was delighted - since I now qualify for Senior Discounts! In addition to helping you stay organized, here's a way your PDA can help you stay healthy. Please visit this website at: www.pillsinyourpalm.com and if you take any medications at all, download the free 30-day Trial. This simple software is very helpful for staying on track with your meds - even when you travel - literally all over the world.. I have OnTimeRx® users all over the world, too. (Isn't the Web wonderful?) Take care and thanks again.

I never believed in organising onself, especially the desk. But somewhere deep down inside there was a voice always saying to me that you need to. I read thousands of books, applied what they said, but as I never believed in organising, I never listened to what they said. But after reading GTD, I only learnt one lesson, and I mean only one. You call it a lesson, an advice or whatever, "You cannot keep everything in your head". Yes, you cannot keep everything in your head. You have to transfer that which is in your head to paper, so that you can see it, feel it, and think about it and GTD taught me that lesson. I am still struggling, as it is difficult to go away with old habits, but I know that I am succeeding. Thanks to GTD. I have started organising myself. It says only a single thought is enough to change your life.
