Never the less I have trouble finding time in between tasks. Example:...

Hi Kristie,

I am using Notes for GTD since some month.

I create a Task with the category projects for each project. I also put the project name as a second category in there (to link n/a to...

Hi David,

since I use Pocket Informant I have filters, that "bundle" my contexts. Means if I am at customer 1 where I have email Access and my laptop the filter "bundels" @laptop, @customer1 and...

Hi,

did anyone used the Lotus Notes GTD Guide? I want to know if it has any real tricks (like commands) in it. And if it is worth the 10 $.

Thanks a lot

Hi,

unfortunately this is from a german website, but probably you get it to run somehow:

It's a little timer for your desktop, which...

Hi Richard,

its no makro. For every project I just add a new mytext (I hope that is the name in englisch). Then when I open a NA I first select the Project name out of my text into the tasks name....

Hi Richard,

I have the same situation as you do.

I'm using Pocket Informant and like it a lot, but am missing a project view.

I tried serveral outliners, among them ADBLibrary, Projecting...

Thanks for your reply :-)

I never put Tasks in special time slots so far, because I never do them then anyway. But for this particular problem it sounds good. I'll give it a try.

- put it on the...

Looks like...

You are right - there is no difference between the two kind of projects...in the end I get everything done I have to before the deadline.

But...the difference for me is: They bother me a long time...

Hi there,

does anyone of you know this feeling: GTD seems to work fine, you don't miss deadlines, you get your work done and still you are NOT relaxed?

My stomache is still telling me something...

I will try that. I think I have three problems:

1. Getting drawn away from work by the overwelming www :-)
2. I'm not commitet to all my tasks - some just need to get done, because my boss thinks...

I think theres a limit to the extend a NA list can make you overcome other (hidden) problems. With me its maybe, that I have a lot of things to do, that need patience - and I don't have much of it ...
