So I pulled yet another all-nighter Monday night and then worked a full day on Tuesday. That came to a whopping 32 hours this week already. so at the end of today I should be able to knock off... Well, that is, I would knock off the rest of the week if I was SANE. Maybe I need to change the name of this blog to just plain "Rants'n'Raves"... ;]

GTD on the cheap
Some sensible tips, reminding us that not everything has to be done expensively and with all possible gadgets (something I myself am quite guilty of... ;] ).

More musings
Maybe things like my taskbar being so stuffed contribute to me not getting things done...
This is my version at home:
...and this is what it looks like on my work machine (yikes! ;] ):

Not going too hot so far...
OK, so it's been a while already and I still haven't gotten any further in the book. I've been working my butt off, and everyone I've been telling about GTD has been smiling at me somewhat amusedly. Not quite sure whether this is because the people I have told know me too well and are thus deservedly skeptical, or whether they're just being cynical about yet another self-help book...
Oh well, back to browsing the web and wasting time. ;]

Yet another Getting Things Done blog...
OK, so I've been seeing all this buzz about GTD lately, and decided to check it all out. So I bought the book and have just gotten it today and decided to keep this little journal for myself to chronicle my experience with the methodology and what it will do to my life. ;]
So far I've read the first 3 chapters, and there are a number of items that really resonate with me. I do find myself fretting about all the stuff I have undone. My email Inbox is totally out of control with undone stuff (not actual action items! ;] ) and in general I spend about 12-14 hours working every day.
My hope is that I can manage to improve at least a little bit. We'll see...
