I am not a GTD fraud after all

I posted the other day about being on the GTD struggle bus, and being better at talking about GTD than doing it. I was being too hard on myself.

There have been times where I've fallen off the wagon for extended periods. But there have also been times that I've had major parts of my GTD system humming along and I've gotten value out of it.

I've posted worthwhile things in this forum. There is a lot I don't know. But there are some things I know that are worth sharing.

I'm posting this for anyone else on the GTD struggle bus who is beating themselves up over it. It's OK to be imperfect. In fact, it's what makes us human.

Peace out.
 
An expert is somebody who has made a lot of mistakes and knows how to fix some of them. A teacher is someone who can explain both the mistakes and the fixes to other people.

In my partnering AOF I have this:

As we coordinate, remember:
- It's OK if we're not perfect
- enjoy reviewing key points in the process
- pay attention to how each other is doing each day

This seems to apply to doing GTD:
- It's OK to not do it perfectly
- enjoy those little wins in the process
- pay attention to how you feel and take that into consideration

@Bill Myers, you have shared a bunch of useful things in these forums.
Thank you,
Clayton.

One step and then the next, get's you where you're going.

Thank you, Mike. But let's be clear: I am not an expert. I am not a teacher. I am just another person on a GTD journey.

Would be very GTD interesting to know what the following looked like to you:

"But have also been times that I've had major parts of my GTD system humming along and I've gotten value out of it."

Thank you very much sir

As you see GTD fit. . . .

Ps. Agree, our imperfect best is always sufficient to the next possible better . . . especially slow-&-small for solid confident compounding over time ?
While Matthew 7:24-27 seems so grueling because it is so seemingly so . . . especially if dopamine was where the action was ?
Just one of many GTD tidbits from the Creator of all reality ?
