This is my first blog entry. It is a pretty self-explanatory introduction, so I will be brief.
I NEVER was taught a true organization system in school - from private high school to liberal arts college. At my fast-paced job in the "real world," I was introduced to the book Getting Things Done by David Allen.
I do not know how I did anything at work before this book!
This book gave clear INSTRUCTIONS for all the things I was having trouble with, including when I wanted to
:: PRIORITIZE
:: CLEAR MY MIND
:: REMEMBER WHAT I NEED, AND WHEN I NEED IT
:: MOVE PROJECTS FORWARD
:: STOP COMPLAINING
:: BE RELIABLE FOR OTHERS
But the problem is that you need a TRUSTED system. There lies the rub! This blog will document my quest for that system, and my journey of attempted productivity along the way.

May I make a suggestion??? Thinking Rock sounds like a potential program that could help you in your travels. I am getting ready to try it out as a portable application (I think it will work as a portable app). It is built around the GTD methodology and I have read some other blogs from people that really like the app. Check out the jpeg at the link below to see how this guy is using it. I am online 95% of the time so I'm not sure it will work for me, but I thought I'd pass it along.
