I date my actions as I add them to my list, so I know how long something has been waiting to get done. So I might have an action that looks like this:
[06/30] Take car for oil change
When the...
In Europe, I think Atoma and Clairing are similar products.
I'm left-handed too, but I use a loose-leaf notebook. When I started with GTD, I used a pocket Moleskine as my main capture device and...
After listening to that, I too am quite sure that's the piece. My classical music collection is all later stuff, so I should definitely go Bach-hunting. Thank you!
I don't know if anyone at...
There was a suggestion earlier in this thread: "Concertos for Recorder - Telemann & Vivaldi". How many concerti you'll have to sort through, I have no idea.
So, for the Weekly Review example:...
Where do you keep your lists? How is your work space laid out? The answers to those questions will help you find ways to keep your lists visible.
For me, I spend a lot of my time at my desk in...
You might have luck finding planner binders like this with 5/8" rings. Then again, you may not -- I'm idly keeping my eyes open for a similar binder and not having much luck.
In the meantime I'm...
You might swing by your local Office Depot (if you have one handy) and look for the FranklinCovey-branded task wallet, which seems very much like the Levenger International Pocket Briefcase... but...
I've probably written it here before, but one of my main points about GTD is that it is not a motivational system. It's great for managing workflow -- making sure you know what all the moving parts...
The only thing I've seen quite like that is the "3-way pad" at Knock Knock:

There are other styles, too, but it doesn't look like the...
I wouldn't say procrastination "isn't irrational," but I think we can all agree that it's natural and troublesome.
Procrastination is generally an avoidance behavior -- it's a way to avoid some...
These lists are "reference" information anyway -- put them on the computer. I even keep my next action lists in Microsoft Word, and print the page out after each processing/update session. Paper...
I don't know if the DavidCo web site has such an archive (maybe someone official will chime in?), but the Ready4Anything Yahoo Group has a bunch of them archived in the "Files" section.
Don't worry -- they're infrequent. The most recent one (#90) went out in early September, and the one before that was February.
Aside from "The Now Habit," which was recently released in a revised edition, here are a couple of other books about procrastination people might be interested in...
-- Rita Emmett's "The...
Choosing homes for different types of information is part of the process of implementing GTD.
I recently listened to a Duct Tape Marketing podcast with David Allen where the point was made that...
I keep my lists in a Word document, which I update and print when I process my inboxes. My job/life doesn't have a lot of meetings and appointments, so most of my planner space is used for capture...
Can you tell us more about your system as it is now? The method I use to keep my lists "in my face" is simple -- I have a copystand -- but it depends on the lists being on paper. With more info...
Just as a thought... You might be interested in Mark Forster's "Do It Tomorrow" method. He suggests keeping a daily list, so everything that comes in today gets done tomorrow. When you're done...
I'm like Tom -- if I have a list of 5 things to do, I'll work through the list, but if I have 15 items, I will waste lots of time trying to find the very best action for the moment. I have two...
