Hi all!
I've been doing my best to learn GTD over the past year or so, and I've noticed consistently that for me, the hardest thing about GTD is actually engaging using my system and not my head.
In general I think I've gotten pretty good about getting everything out of my head, and I'm decent at clarifying, but when it comes time to actually get to work I find that I almost always default to latest and loudest. I work in a fairly high pressure job, and sometimes when the ** hits the fan I wont even check my next actions list until my next weekly review, and then I suddenly realize all of the other things I've been neglecting.
Does anyone have any suggestions about behaviors to help train myself to actually work off of my next actions list?
Thanks,
Ben
