Just a quick pointer to The Cranking Widgets Blog where Brett has a really cool series of posts (two up so far) called GTD Masters where he interviews some well known GTD bloggers. Great idea and great reading!

I have this stupid love/hate relationship with goal setting. On one hand I get all jazzed about a new goal and I get energized by the thinking and strategizing that goes into developing plans for world domination meeting the goal. On the other hand, in some ways I look down upon the whole process as […]
What’s The Next Action has an excellent post about five systems of GTD that gained a little traction and then were ditched. This rings pretty true for me…I could (and maybe should) write a similar list. I bet lots of people have lists like this.
This is part of both the fun and the frustration […]
Well, it’s really a “webinar” (hate that term) and it’s specifically about using MindManager within the GTD context. But it’s definitely free. Takes place on your computer on Tuesday, October 10, 2006. Details here. Cosponsored by MindJet, so they’ll be using MindManager on this presentation. Even if you don’t use MindManager, I’m guessing the concepts […]
The Treo 700p wins.
For me, at least. I’ve been a user of Palm OS since around 1999 or so. About 9 months ago, or so, I got a Blackberry. I tried real hard to find some love for the ‘berry, but it was tough going. There are relatively few third party apps for the ‘berry, […]
I’ve been a huge fan of del.icio.us and I’ve tried and rejected many of the potential replacements for the service. Recently I read about Diigo and I figured I’d give it a try. Turns out I love it very much. :-)
I use del.icio.us in three primary ways. Straight up personal bookmarks, as a service to […]
I recently finished reading this book by Rajesh Setty (blog), who is a longtime entrepreneur and writer. Beyond Code is a rather unique book, in my view, because it’s a fascinating mix of solid business and career advice interspersed with insight into Setty’s background and childhood. I came away feeling like I had a good […]
I recently finished reading Lisa Haneberg’s latest book, Focus Like A Laser Beam: 10 Ways To Do What Matters Most, and I also had a chance to chat with her via Skype, which she’ll put out as a podcast pretty soon. I’ll point to that when it’s up.
The short version of this book review is […]
Just a couple of quick links to some new apps that have been pointed out to me recently.
First is Joe’s Goals, which is a super simple web-based goal tracker that has all the ajaxy stuff you’ve come to expect. There’s not really any social aspect (read: external guilt) which we’ve also come to expect […]
If you rock a Mac, like me, you’ll be pleased to know that there is now a version MindManager that works with OSX! I’m super-stoked about it. I’ve been using it for a couple of months now, and it’s definitely in daily rotation. It’s my standard notetaking and brainstorming application. I’ve gotten into the habit […]
Quick pointer to a recent interview with David Allen over at The Business Shrink. Good interview that covers the basics, including a brief foray into the Covey v. Allen question.

This is a tried and true hack that isn’t limited to the managers in the crowd. Death by next action has it’s roots in the ‘Getting Things Done’ philosophy. The ‘next action’ phrase refers to the very next physical action that moves a project forward. Death by Next Action is a micromanagement trick that’s used […]
I’ve been reading Blackberry Hacks, off and on, for the last couple of months (author’s blog here). Very useful if you’re a Blackberry user that wants to get the most out of your device. The book has 100 “hacks” for squeezing maximum productivity out of the bb. As usual, some of the “hacks” are just […]
Hey, just a quick heads up for fans of Getting Things Done. Over at InBubbleWrap they’re giving away one seat at one of David’s Roadmap seminars (complements of the GTDzone). You can read about the Roadmap seminar I attended here. These seminars aren’t cheap–$595.00 for one day. If you aren’t quite lucky enough to win […]
Paving the path of least resistance, so you don't trip and fall.
