Hi - I've been using the GTD system for about two years and it has been absolutely valuable for me. Like everyone, it has taken take to master - I love David's last newsletter with the belt levels.
I've found that I'm having a harder time implementing it at home than at work. At work, I'm mainly a greenbelt who glimpses into blackbelt land every now and then. At home, I'm much further down the scale. For example, this weekend I threw out a good $75 worth of expired coupons for services and products that I used during the period I had them. I didn't structure myself to remember that I had them in the right moment. Or maybe I need to decide to not use coupons at all.
Is that true with the rest of you out there? What are your challenges and how have you been overcoming them
I think the challenges at home are:
* lack of a good physical space - we have an office, but it is removed from the main living area, so I tend to resist using it - and it is very small
* more interruptions - especially with little children!
*a lack of deadlines
I'd love your thoughts.
