Priceless advice! I always look forward to Katherine's posts.

I think David covers it pretty well, too. In many forms and variations he spells out that the 2 critical questions we must ask are: ...

This is a pretty interesting review/recommendation. The biggest weakness to the GTD add-in, in my view, is the way it handles projects. I still use it, but mostly as an email and one-off NA...

Why can be a pretty deep question, and one that doesn't get asked nearly often enough. It can quickly lead you into unfamiliar, uncomfortable territory. To me, why is always the core question and...

Your lists are much the same as mine. My 'full' template is:

Purpose - Vision - Brainstorm - Organize - Next Actions - Follow Up
(Why - What - How - Who/When/Where)

Purpose/Guiding Principles...

That caught my eye as well...

The WHEN is 'sometime today', if at all possible. If it is not only day specific, but time specific as well, then it is no longer an all day task and goes into the appropriate time slot on the...

The way I prioritize Next Actions is to use the hard landscape of the calendar. Every morning before work I look at my work related context lists and extract those tasks that I really want to get...

As far as I can tell, it's a bug that I was hoping they would address in the latest release... if it is by design, then I don't understand what purpose it serves.

The workaround (for me, at any...

I was naming it correctly but both the custom task views were intermittently disappearing for some reason.

Finally created them to apply to my default task folder only (not all task folders) and...

Ok, different error now... Script error line no:212.

Haven't seen that one addressed yet in this thread.

Any ideas, Mattias?

In the immortal words of Emily Litella: "Never mind!"

Had an extra space in one of the view names.

Still getting the 226 error even after creating the views as described in the .rtf file and on the site here.

Seems pretty straightforward... create the views w/ the correct names in the...

I was thinking much the same thing myself...

Bollinger, do you have a paypal account that I could donate some $$ to?

Ditto... I will gladly beta test the form. I used the old form for a while and it was great but the performance 'hit' was too much for me and I abandoned it after a while.

It would be great to...

I find that many, many small points that David makes in the book and on the GTD Fast cd's don't sink in fully until I am 'ripe' enough (mature enough in my GTD habits) to really hear them.

One of...

I agree... while I do have to be somewhat rigorous in collecting and processing, the actual *doing* can be very intuitive and flowing.

Yes, this simple modification would solve the entire problem. Or at least, a prompt for how you wanted to handle the original task... complete it or leave it alone.



Yes... right now I am...

The add-in updates are great... although it is still not as clean a project management tool as I would like.

My biggest complaint (and maybe someone out there can tell me if I'm missing something...

"Make it up... make it happen."

"What's the Outcome? What's the Next Action?"

"2 minutes or less? Do it!"

If it's not a direct quote then it's close. I think it's on the FAST tapes.

That was the quote (once I internalized it) that really helped me in the beginning when I was stressing after seeing...
