I have had a similar issue, where I have folders in my email inbox to review nightly, in the morning, on the weekend etc
My solution has been to either place it as an appointment on my calendar,...
This is an issue that I wrestle with as well. One solution has been to at weekly reviews, if an item is urgent and must be done by say Wednesday, I put it on my calendar on Monday. Likewise, when I...
I have an Acer Aspire one, it also rocks =)
I hear they are going to fall to 199 and even $99 next year. At that point, I don't think there's any reason not to get one.
I use @Waiting and I review that folder from time to time (typically twice a week). If it is urgent, I will @Waiting it and put it in my task list with a due date.
If there are time zone issues,...
Interesting Llan
What I do is take the email and if I'm going to change the subject (for my own sake) I'll reply to myself and change the subject, or when I reply to everyone I change the subject...
It depends on how you want to use it. The way I understand it, the calendar is really meant for things that have a specific time that day that they need to be done (i.e., it trumps everything else)
...
I may be wrong, but I hada similar situation and this is how I dealt with it.
The issue here isn't just next action: It's context. You have a very specific action that needs to be accomplished,...
Try this too:
Open Calednar view
At the very bottom your screen, you should see small font that says "Tasks: 7 active tasks"
On the bottom right are two little up arrows ^. Click that to...
It's sounds to me like what you're actually doing is one "two-part" weekly review =)
I do one weekly review, but I do lots of collecting "things" everywhere. I write down tasks and enter them in...
I keep my favorites on delicious.com - this way I can access them anywhere, and I don't have to worry about backing them up because it automatically syncs with my firefox
As for books, I have...
Very interesting. I think this is definitely useful, I'm going to check it out today after work. It would be nice to have an automatic overview of progress generated. It won't replace the weekly...
Interesting thought about the energy levels.
I don't have anything like that, but I do have something similar: I am not in the office at the same time as my coworker all the time, so I have...
You may want to consider GTDInbox:
http://www.gtdinbox.com/
A friend of mine uses it and loves it - I use outlook so I can't personally comment on it, but it may be what you are looking for. ...
I totally know what you mean. One thing that irritates me to no end is when people commit to something, and then when I call to follow up with them they have forgotten they committed to it to begin...
I think it's what you make of it. I think frazzled people are drawn to GTD - and some people STILL overcommit. GTD will not help you get everything done, it'll just make you more efficient and give...
I like using joesgoals.com I like it because it is web based, and it shows me streaks (days in a row I have/haven't done a task). I believe sciral consistency does a better job warning you with...
Hi,
I think it really depends on where the blog fits in your priorities, and the level at which you want to track it. I would classify it as a 20K area personally, and put 10K sub project...
Pricing seems pretty fair - the service they provide is so useful I agree, $4 a month for the minimum seems totally reasonable. At that price it's still basically free.
That said, I'm generally...
Cool! I am bookmarking to check it out tomorrow, it's midnight here and I'm about to go to sleep!
I have a similar issue. The way that I've solved it is I have two "someday" lists - one that is for projects I truly intend to do "someday" soon, and another for projects that are on the backburner,...
