GTD Part 2

I had a look at my GTD system again to see if there is not a way for me to handle things more productively.

It normally takes a long time to explain to someone how GTD work and what are the benefits etc. but I came across a very good site that explains how it works quite neatly.

Have a look at this video and then at the bottom of this blog you will get the link to their site with many videos that you can watch.  It is really good info.




Getting unto a system like this will change your life.  I don't use this system but it is a very easy way to get into it.  I personally use Donedesk (which is also free by the way), with Springpad to file all the info I need to be filed.  My calendar is used for what it is supposed to be used for booked time that is for that specifically not a reminder of a task.  I also unfortunately have a system at my business that forces me to work in a specific way without tags, but that is just one of those things.  Like most people, or rather many people out there I get a large amount of mail that I have to deal with everyday. I can get up to 200 emails a day sometimes but never less that 100 emails a day that I have to deal with. I am not counting spam here, these are actionable emails.  By actionable I mean an email that I have to deal with.  During the day I would also get other new tasks, finish others, find something interesting on the web etc etc.

I use Donedesk because you can use it as a project management system where you can assign people tasks, people can reply etc.  This is purely my choice.  You don't have to use an automatic system at all.

Some extra info is that I now am in the final stages talking to Personal Brain, by the end of the week would be able to help you guys with more direct info, and help etc on using thebrain.
