bakit di ko ito ginawa dati???

ngayong wala akong magawa sa buhay ko, aside from "research"(a.k.a. aimlessly browsing random websites), naisip kong patulan ang mga audio at ebooks na nakatambak sa pc ko. at dito ko muling nasilayan ang "Getting Things Done" ni David Allen (c/o of Dennis). Isa lang ang masasabi ko, bakit hindi ko ito ginawa dati??? akalain mong may mapupulot pla sa mga sinasabi ni dencio??? hehehe... joke lang cio! ngayon ko lang na-appreciate ng mabuti yung mga pinagsasabi mo about it. ngayon gets ko na why you're really raving about the book. :) marami akong "oo nga noh!" moments...

At dahil nga sa kawalan ng magawa.... masdan ang nagawa ko...




ang problema ko na lang ay wala akong matinong protective covering...
kakahanap ng kung anu-anong pang cover, may naisip akong magandang lalagyan, at swerte naman at saktong-sakto sya!



yun nga lang.... passport ko naman ngayon ang nawalan ng tahanan... hehehe...
makabili nga ng bagong passport cover... akalain mong kasya pala dun ang 3x5 index card! swak na swak!




wala lang... naaliw lang ako...

Buti ka pa nabasa/narinig mo na...
Ako, hindi ko parin mabigyan ng time yung sarili ko para mag-basa niyan... T_T

Hanggang Wikipedia article na lang ako... :(

Ask and you shall recieve. here is the Wiki Article on GTD. It was a bit controversial on some of the GTD forums because GTD is a rather simple framework, so essentially, the article is too much like a functional summary of the book already. Although, I would have to argue that hearing the comments from the author can help you better understand how the framework came to be.

@DyingSonnet,

Hahaha. Welcome to the club. Kasama natin si Roovin and Alfred, if I recall correctly.

Here are a few tips... "Focus on your goals"... let that be your compass. In GTD kasi, it's so easy to get lost in "tweaking your trusted system". Remember, the purpose is to get things done not over organize yourself.

And also, Do your weekly/daily review. I am guilty of skipping this at times and when I find myself TOO stressed about it (too many NEXT ACTIONS pero those are not the cause of stress), I reboot my system. (that means, start clean and throw the entire old outline into Someday Maybe).

Here's also something I picked up at the forums... Your NEXT ACTIONS list should only include what you intend to do for the week (or two, not more). That will allow you to focus on current tasks and then recharge your list during the weekly review. get the reason why those are in bold and italics?

Kung OC ka, medyo mag iisip ka pa ng matagal kung paper based or electronic... remember, secondary lang sya to actually getting things done, things that moves you forward in life.

kahit yung audio book muna, pakinggan mo on your way to work. although may mga skipped parts as compared dun sa actual book, so try to take time na makita din yun copy.

@mustard jedi
hehehe...salamat talaga! may mga araw kse na naiinis ako sa sarili ko kse may mga nakakalimutan akong dapat ko plang gawin, ngayon nakakatulog na ako ng mahimbing. (parang pang commercial ng tide noh?) nyaahahaha...
thanks sa additional tips! so far enjoy both yung pag tweak ng system at pag gawa ng actual action. sana lang tuloy-tuloy na hanggang sa maging busy na ulit sa real-life work... hehehe.. :) thanks uli!
