Once again, I find myself drowning under a sea of paperwork. It seems like every project with which I’m involved has suddenly ground to a halt and demanded my attention. But contrary to last time this occured, I’m feeling calm and on top of my workload.
The reason for this is I have been diligently doing [...]
Well, the semester has unofficially started again, and once more I am up to my eyeballs in extra work. This year I am much more organised than I was last year (starting a new job in the same week as study commenced was not terribly helpful) so I’m hoping that I can use my newfound [...]
I find it strange that the moment that I need my GTD system the most - when my week is so busy that I lose sight of myself - is the exact time that my system falls off the rails and I lose it completely. I’m not sure whether this is something that happens [...]
I haven’t been looking for GTD software recently. I’ve finally managed to find a system that works for me, and what do you know? It is a plain vanilla system utilising Outlook and Pocket Informant. But regardless of how comfortable in my current system I am, I will still keenly check out anything shiny and [...]
43folders.com had the most brilliant YouTube video this morning; I seriously never even considered all the things you could do with the new iPod Shuffle - and this has to be one of the most useful and inspired.

My new year’s resolutions included a number of things, including ‘have a holiday’, ‘participate in Project365‘ and ‘work on getting my GTD process back on track and working for me’. So far I have a holiday planned for December, and have uploaded nine photographs onto Flickr for my Project 365. It is the [...]
A while ago, I saw a 43folders post on a GTD application called iCommit.
I originally attempted to sign up to the site from work, however at the time IE was not a supported browser. (And while I find it very cool that it supported just about everything but, I’m stuck with IE at work). [...]
I have tried numerous online and offline-computer-based resources to keep my GTD system in line. I’ve had a giant Word doc, modified Excel to within an inch of its life, followed the teachings of those who preach .txt files and made myself known to many an online and usb-drive Wiki.
But still I fall off [...]
I like email. A lot. I find it a brilliant, efficient and easy way to stay in touch and informed. I’m the type that is keen to check my email the minute I walk through the door, be it my work email address, or the myriad of personal addresses I keep on [...]
