can reside and be visible and easily accessible.īefore this reboot business, ToDoist was my tactical tool and Evernote my strategic tool, with an assist from Google Drive and Google Keep. To do the strategic stuff right, I need a tool setup where all my goals, project notes, project support materials, etc. What context is appropriate? What resources or tools are required? How much time does it take? What priority does it have? You are supposed to do the thinking about these issues before entering into the fray of everyday getting-things-done. What I mean is, while of course tasks require thinking when you do them, there is a lot of thinking about tasks that has to take place apart from when you're doing them. I mentioned that in a tactical situation I want to think as little as possible. This is the part of GTD that is not in the heat of the moment, but rather when making high-level decisions about goals, projects, and tasks. The strategic side of GTD is what you see when you are doing reviews ( weekly, trimesterly, etc.).This is where the " mind like water" mantra kicks in. This is the majority of the time I am working, and for those situations I need a tool setup that is fast, flexible, simple, with as little friction as possible, and makes me think as little as possible.

WORKFLOWY CALENDAR SERIES
Remember in the series on rebooting my GTD setup ( part 1, part 2, part 3) I decided there are three essential elements to what I want from GTD moving forward: When it becomes apparent that a tool is no longer delivering, I change it - and we should all feel like we have permission to do this, provided it doesn't run up costs (subscriptions can add up) and we don't spend more time futzing with apps than we do actually accomplishing things. I'm not particularly bothered by this, because as Michael Hyatt once put it, every app I use is on a permanent job interview. It's taken me this long to get to a point where I have a stable setup that I am willing to talk about. is that I changed my mind about the GTD setup I decided upon. I'll be honest: The reason I didn't immediately follow up with parts 4, 5, etc. In the last two weeks, three different people have asked me: Where are you with your GTD app choices, and what did you finally decide on for a GTD setup? The last time I blogged about this, it was part 3 of a multi-part series on rethinking/rebooting my GTD setup and I concluded with a cliffhanger: In the next post, maybe the next two, I'll show you which ones made the cut, how I set each one up for GTD according to my updated values and rules, and how I decided on the one that I am sticking with (for now).
