The Real Value of GTD [Getting Things Done]
Did I survive 2 weeks of vacation with (almost) no access to the internet? Yes, I did, and not barely but almost easily — much to my own surprise!
Two weeks may not sound like a long time to some people, but to somebody like me it sounds like an unusually long period without writing blog posts, reading RSS feeds, using e-mail, browsing the internet and so on.
I took my laptop (yes, I persuaded my wife I really needed it for storing all of the vacation pictures), I took my PDA with my core GTD system (ListPro) and I even bought 100 minutes of wireless internet access. I barely used any of them!
Literally being unplugged for 2 weeks is truly liberating and has allowed me to reconsider and refocus on what’s really important to me.
