GTD Day 6

Getting Even more things done!

Day 2 of the new job was excellent - this whole week won't be doing too much after work as my head hurts from learning all the new stuff. I did have an imporvisational comedy rehersal planned - but half of the troupe are in a play and they had to bail for a rehersal, the play is this weekend and according to them the extra rehersal was a welcomed addition.

Today I will be learning and taking it easy.

The Idea of the GTD is to use the least amount of framework that gets things done. I only cary a list with me of things to do on the weekends as I don't plan on getting anything beyond sleep, eat, work done anyway. There is  a flexibility to use only what you need when you need.

I still have lists online that hold the "mile long wish list" of tasks to eventually get done - and as long as they are written down (typed down) I no longer have to worry about forgetting them. I have come to terms that I will check the list if I have extra time and they will all be waiting for me.

This releaves a huge weight off of my mind as the list doesn't consume any thought. only one thought is needed: is it on the list?

Yes - then it is covered

No - then add it to the list now

As the list is online I can add it immediately if I am at my PC or write it down on my business card Hipster PDA and when I am at my PC I always check it and update accordingly - very simple system.
