Stripped Down GTD List Manager [HD BizBlog- The Podcast: Productivity in Context]
This just in:
A Simple Index Card GTD System | GTD Times
Note here I broke down the task to several subtasks. I actually wrote this list during a dull portion of a work meeting last week…the ideas hit me, I wrote them quickly, then reengaged with the business meeting, knowing I had secured the ideas.
So how does this system hold up to Kelly’s requirements for a good GTD list manager? Let’s look, step by step.
Key features to look for:
* Sorting lists by context - many programs have a “category†feature that will easily support this.
>>>Yep…color calls out the context.* Ability to assign a due date - not forcing it on all of them, but allowing it for those that need it.
>>>Yep…I just write down the date, if needed.* Portable for on the go access - can be synched to a handheld or printed.
>>>Portable, yes. Synched, no. For me, this is not an issue; I found with my earlier experiments that synching really didn’t mean that much. I am happy to trade off network synchronization for portability.
