I'm really struggling with finding the best way to get reading done. If I'm remembering GTD correctly, the recommended way to handle reading is to put it in a reading folder that you carry with you and use those odd moments before meetings to get your reading done.
This works fine for discretionary reading, but doesn't work well for reading I must do (ie., reports that must be read and commented on). I tend to grow numb to my reading folder and forget that there is something in there I need to address. I've found that I need to treat that sort of reading just like any other task or project and create a NA for it.
I'd like to find a more systematic way to get reading I'd LIKE to do (though not under obligation to do) done.
Any ideas on what you've found to work well?
