My biggest hurdle in implementing GTD is that I have different, incompatible PIMs at work and at home.
I have personal and work e-mail accounts. I can access my personal e-mail from my work PC via the web, but I can't access my work e-mail from my home PC.
The IT environment at work is tightly controlled and I don't have admin rights to my work PC. We use Lotus Notes mail and MS Outlook is not installed. I don't have a company-purchased PDA. On my home PC I use MS Outlook and I have a personal Palm V that I sync with Outlook.
My work involves a high volume of discreet transactions every day - mostly done on the computer (e.g., updating various databases). I also handle a fair amount of physical stuff -- computers, laptops, monitors, parts. "Stuff" comes at me at work by phone, VM, e-mail, walk-ins and pager, as well as paper and physical objects that get dropped in my office or come in through our mail room.
I've put most of my personal/non-work "stuff" into the GTD system, and I've partially implemented GTD at work, but not thoroughly, and the personal and work systems don't sync.
Does anyone have any tips for moving between 2 systems? I'd much prefer to put it all on one system but I don't see how I can do that.
Thanks!
