New 'kid' on block, doing Installation Intensive on my own

Hi folks! Over a year ago I stumbled upon 43folders.com and read GTD which really spoke to me, but I haven't been able to "stop the world & get off" until now, the end of the academic year. I'm too cheap & too ADDled to hire a GTD coach in time for this window of opportunity to begin implementing GTD, so I'm hoping to draw on this group for support as I refresh my memory of what I read. Right now I'm antsy to jump in, but it's overwhelming and I don't know quite where to start. Any advice?

Glad I could help. Always remember...

Glad I could help.

Always remember - you can only do what you can do!! This initial mind dump may not get everything so keep some collection sheets with you and in easy access places (kitchen, lounge, study, bedside table, shirt pocket/workbag) so that when the all of the other bits and pieces that you have to do pop into your mind you can collect them ready for processing (daily or weekly)

Good luck

Kim

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
