Daylite is my app of choice for organizing my Mac-based business. It has a good project module that allows you to link contacts, tasks, emails and appointments to a project. I'm trying to use GTD within this system and would appreciate any advice anyone can give me.
I've created GTD-type categories (Office, Errands, Waiting For, etc.) and assigned them to my tasks. If I have a phone call on my task list it starts out as "Office". After I make the call I change the category to Waiting For if I left a message and need a call back.
I can group all the tasks on my list by category. Am I missing something or can it really be this simple? I'd love to hear from anyone else who has combined GTD with Daylite.
I really need to make this work because I have several employees who work virtually in a different time zone. It's really important that we have a system where we can all tell who is supposed to do what and when. Our business is growing and communication has become more complicated. If I don't get my own communications under control it's going to limit our growth. I've been listening to David's audios and studying the book, but I feel like I've got a long way to go.
Haven't yet been able to initiate the weekly review of all my lists, except for the project review meetings I have weekly with my staff. Oh, well, one step at a time. Your comments are most welcome.
