I just implemented the GTD system into Outlook and have a few questions...thanks in advance for your help
1) I find that I am constantly going to the Next Action lists and completing actions which may not be the highest priority. Part of the reason I do this is that I am procrastinating in tackling the harder actions. How do I avoid this and go right to the highest priority action?
2) Also, in the same vein how often do I look at the @ACTION folder for actionable e-mails.
3) Finally, my job is one where I am free to come up with ideas/do research, etc so I am often faced with large blocks of free time. It is during these periods that I am checking NA's, working on NA's which aren't priorities, etc.
Any suggestions would be most appreciated!
