Instill like the idea of contexts and have gotten a lot of mileage out of a fairly vanilla GTD-canonical list of them over the years, but I can definitely see your point. Between having a smartphone...

Well, two quickies come to mind:

One is self-serving--I have a book called Higher Process that's about evaluatin self-help and productivity advice via paychological research. GTD is featured in...

I would like to have an online discussion group for Ready For Anything, to go through one chapter a week in the course of 2008.

I've recently been incorporating reading a random chapter of Ready...

I'm not 100% sure what you're asking, after reading a couple of the replies--is the question whether or not you're qualified to consult on GTD, or is it a question of rights and propriety (i.e., "Is...

If I'm understanding you right, you mean labeling or listing projects by area of focus. I've tried this in a couple of my implementations. It seemed like a good way to spot-check the balance among...

I've had massive problems with this, as well--I'm a former design student, and a former FranklinCovey employee, so I have the tools, know-how, and inclination to invent a virtually endless parade of...

I think it's a great idea. I could see it being a pitfall for some (me, for instance--I think things that were "nasty" because I hadn't committed to thinking them all the way through would creep...

He came back and wrote the fairly lengthy response to what we'd suggested that appears right above your question (and, if the timestamps are accurate, he did so about 2 days before your post).

I believe David says filing should fast, fun, and effortless as possible. Your negative feelings about the filing system probably do reflect a real problem of some sort, although most of the...

The possibility of spam occurred to me, but there was a lot of effort put into framing it in a cogent, topical issue and drafting readable and believable prose; also, no indication that the forum...

I tend to take inputs while I'm in the car by calling my own voicemail.

Also, in GTD Fast, David mentioned a trick he uses to avoid forgetting things when he can't write them down: He said he...

It's the current, 1-day version of the GTD seminar that David teaches. More info is on the DavidCo site.

I agree with the previous two posts, and I would also submit some GTDish thinking...

The reason for your obsession may be that there is an area of focus in your life that either you have not...

1) Are there any planners that people recommend? I've been using Franklin Covey but don't think that it has the flexibility that I need.

I use FranklinCovey--they have so many sizes and styles...

It's an 8-CD recording of David doing one of his 2-day seminars (the pre-Roadmap version of the seminar). It's a bit more in depth and a good deal more entertaining than the 3-CD GTD audiobook. It...

One tip David did give (I believe it's in GTD Fast, but don't quote me) is to spin things off based on size. He suggested that if you have more than half a file-drawer of files on a single topic or...

If that is the case, it's David Allen's recipe that Jason is cooking with. From David and Merlin Mann's Productive Talk on Interruptions podcast:

"All you have to do is to make sure that when...

Lately, I've been messing around with a new default capture tool. In one of the books (or maybe both), David talks about having a ubiquitous capture tool that you always have with you--he even says...

Re: an "overlay"...

If you're in a paper-based planner that's in a binder (virtually any binder--FranklinCovey, DayTimer, DayRunner, and standard 11" and 8.5" 3-ring binders are pretty much...
