Somehow I have found morning hours most productive. I have no idea why evenings don't work as well. If I need to get something done, I better force myself to wake up at 5 am (and try to get at least...
I have fallen from GTD wagon and I'm thinking about getting back with paper. Previously I used Omnifocus for mac and its iOs version. Now I feel some resistance towards starting to use it again...
Earlier I wake up, more productive I can be. From productivity perspective around 5 am would be the best time for me to get up. I don't know what's the magic about those morning hours, but somehow I...
Could you give an example, please?
For me, someday/maybe was for projects which I'm not yet sure how much I want to do them. Calendar was for among other things reminders. For example...
I agree with you. But I look this from a bit different point of view. BTW, "simple in principle, but complex in practice" was one point which I tried to say in my previous post.
IMO: basics of...
Few of my favourites:
"Make it up. Make it happen."
"If you don't pay appropriate attention to what has your attention, it will take more of your attention than it deserves."
"You don't...
I have a vague memory that somewere DA said project management tools like MS project are good for managing complex projects, but should be combined with a tool/system (like GTD) which ensures all...
I disagree. Most martial arts are basically very simple. You just have to practice long time, so you can perform the moves without thinking in stressfull situations. (Learning the basics is always...
Yes, it is possible, I did it. But I wouldn't say it is advisable.
I collected, processed etc all new input. It worked ok, but I had some resistance towards GTD. Later, when I got more comfortable...
I haven't used it. I use evernote as my digital capture tool, but not for list managing. I once tryed to use evernote as list manager, but found it somehow cumbersome. (I used it poorly)
Currently...
For me, first real bull**** reaction came with Noguchi Yukio's filing system. There was time when I was heavily into photo organization and DAM/DIM systems. That was time when I learned that...
I had same problem. Think about it this way: You are not generating new task to do, you are just identifying existing. After you have identified them you can choose what to do. Do you want to handle...
File things for easy retrieval. What ever that is for you.
Below are two Get it Done guy links which I have found helpfull.

Processing physical in to empty was hard to me. Mostly because I had many skeletons in it. After I got to zero it became much easier. But maybe also partially because I will try to do all the...
As said, you can put a reminder about something to your calendar.
Also, tickler file is great help. I personally prefer it to calendar on thing that are not time specific events. For me, it is...
Every paper sheet has two sides, and I'm heavy user of the unprinted side of prints. At least here paper is very often printed only on one side. So next to home workstation I have 3 cm stack of one...
I don't have one definite weekly review song.
Usually when I start my weekly review I press play in ipod classical playlist, which starts with Bachs Trio sonata in E-flat major (BWV 525, by...
After completing current next action when following next action is evident, I add it immediately to my list (or do if it takes less than 2 minutes), but if there is some uncertainty about following...
This may be little offtopic, sorry. I just feel I have to say this.
First of all, do you mean delegating next actions, or delegating tasks (ie. unprocessed stuff)?
If tasks to be processed:

My 2 cnt. Read with caution, this is just IMO, I have no deeper knowledge, and MIT is kind of new concept to me. Below is two cases that how I might work. If I'd use MIT, I'd probably do as case 1....
