I’ve mentioned 30boxes before. Google’s calendar is quite functional, I’m sure, but 30boxes has some unique features and, besides, I can’t allow the secret agents of Google to know everything about me that easily.
What you get with 30boxes is
a text-entry feature that allows you to quickly set a date and reminder without using your […]

This looks like it will be a fantastic read: a freelance writer on GTD:
Some people have asked me to explain how I integrate Getting Things Done (”GTD”) with being a writer. If you’re a GTD purist, look away now before you have an aneurysm.

I’ve mentioned before that before David Allen there was Kerry Gleeson. I think his book is different than and perhaps fills some gaps in David Allen’s. One of the issues were the frequent exhortations to change your behavior. We all need that some times. The other was some more specific advise […]

I am way busy getting the house ready for visitors, so WWW will have to be truncated.
I have loved moneytrackin’ for budgeting projects. I will eventually want something tied to my bank account, but for now this is just fine. The use of tags is really helpful.
My only advice would be to think […]

My phone goes off for a minute (I think) and then gives up forever. If I sleep through that minute there is nothing left.
So I didn’t get up till six and I almost went back to sleep then. Only the shame of having to write this down in my logbook kicked me into […]

Let me just say I think “stress-free productivity” is simply not a helpful expectation. I’m all for reducing the stress in getting things done. But I think one helpful attitude would be to accept some forms of stress as a sign that you are growing, maturing, and producing.
For one thing, I think an […]

Wow. A blogger spent a lot of time putting together this survey of the GTD app landscape. I am quite impressed. Will be bookmarking this for future GTD tools for some time to come.
(Much of this is for the Mac, but not all. Besides, with more web tools available, OS is […]

I’ve blogged about this earlier, but I thought Joe’s Goals deserved more comment and made a worthy beginning to my new and continuing (I hope) Wednesday blog topic.
Due to my trip to Florida, I have fallen away from using it. But I will get back in the saddle soon because I have found it […]

Let me start this by saying that Steve Palina has a lot of worthwhile things to say. Just because I think his 10 Reasons You Should Never Get a Job is pretty flawed does not mean that I disagree with everything else and don’t find other great things on his site to read. […]

After reading this blog I decided to take a look at the task tools you mentioned. I’m looking a Nozbe now, but TaskToy — what is it? The Tasktoy website is just a signup page, with no information as to what in the heck Tasktoy is, or even what it looks like. No FAQ, […]

Am I the only one who thinks rhetoric about earning a “black belt” in any sort of business practice is sort of juvenile and silly? I want to get better at GTD, but a “3rd degree Black Belt“? How about a GTD red cape or utility belt? What about D&D?–”become a level […]

I have been tending toward using web applications again, but now that my main desktop is acting like a piece of rock rather than a computer, I’m starting to wonder if I should return lowtech in my quest to do better GTD. (I started going that way a couple of months ago just because […]

For those of you interested (or in need) of GTD (despite the deep weird), The GTD Wannabe blog has posted a review of the online gtd app, Nozbe. I’ve noticed Nozbe before, and think it is the right direction to go. I am more and more inclined to prefer online services to downloading […]

The Republic of Geektronica has a short but useful entry on “the trouble with to-do lists.” The trouble with these lists is, in short, that if you have everything on them you get really intimidated and try to avoid looking at them. Geektronica suggests some work-arounds utilizing Remember the Milk. Since I’m […]

Frankly, this article scares me.
Allen was a 23-year-old grad student at UC Berkeley in 1968 when he met a psychic named Michael who said he owed Allen a karmic debt over a past-life transgression. Michael began teaching him karate and sharing Zen concepts such as “mind like water. ” (It means that just as a […]

This is an amazing “bobo” column on why this generation of young people is earning less than the previous generation at that age. And she invokes GTD of all things:
Our dreams are tied to time. So it’s no surprise that many of the most popular blogs offer tips for time management and that “getting things […]
