Of course it is overkill to have a number of different task managers except for the fact that none of them do what I need in every situation. RTM is useful for sharing lists and working on my phone (something that Outlook and Toodledo aren't strong on). Outlook is great for handling my Exchange-based email, and Toodledo is easy to use and useful for my general tasks when I'm sitting on front of my computer. If I could find one application which would work for everything I need, it would be no question.

It's about the workflow. For example I think it's an overkill to use Toodledo, Outlook and RTM simultaneously. GTD is not about the tools. It’s about the workflow.

So my partner and I both started reading GTD by Allen and followed it step by step. We also applied it to our tasks and appointments. The GTD system has truly transformed our lives. Apart from having an organised office, the personal tasks and appointments are managed effortlesly and I don't think we can live without it now:-) Will recommend it to anyone who listens:-) X Chelsea We had to move to a different city couple of years ago and had to finally organise the massive amount of papers and tasks that had accumulated in our house and also to get organised for the new life and brand new jobs.
