Hello All:
Happy New Year !!
I absolutely love GTD conceptually. Executing it is a different story. I am struggling a little.
There always seems to be an item that I am processing that takes me more than 2 minutes to decide on how I want to enter it into my GTD system. This creates a bit of heartache for me. I want GTD to work. However, when the system I have created is so complex that I can't decide how to get an item into it I get really really frustrated. I guess that is what this Posting Board is all about.
I was in the office processing a ton of paper when I came across a letter from a friend. I want to respond to the letter in a reasonable amount of time and during some free "personal" time. I don't want to throw it into my paper follow up system at the office. I really have not duplicated my GTD system at home.
So, do I create a duplicate GTD system at home? Do I throw this letter into my reference file system at the office and enter a task to write a response letter to my friend in my Palm/Outlook under N/A @home(seems cumbersome). Or, do I carry the letter in my briefcase so I run across it when I am at home processing my briefcase stuff (entails doing it when I come across it since I don't have a duplicate GTD system at home)?
What do you think?
Thanks in advance,
Chris
