in which we are tired ...
Since I am tired of the miasma that my life has become, without me knowing where to start on anything, I have started with the Getting Things Done school of organization. I've bought the book, and am about a third of the way through it. It has already started affecting my life in small but positive ways.
In the book, David Allen talks about "work" being a not-very clearly defined activity, especially in this age of "knowledge workers" -- basically people who sit in front of a computer and do things, like myself. This is one of the major reasons I've started with the GTD methodology.
It all started when I read an article about it on lifehacker.com, which is a site about productivity and generally doing things better. For geeks.
Anyway, I know my history with self-improvement things -- I start off like gangbusters, keep it going for a while, and then they seem to fall by the wayside. Here's hoping that I have the intestinal fortitude to keep this going.
So what are some of your ways of Getting Things Done? Let's hear some of your productivity tips.
Oh, and there's lots more information about Getting Things Done to be had.
