but still I am struggling big time! I really need to make lists, mind sweep, wack my mailbox to 0 and empty my sky hight physcial inbox and preferably all of this in the next 24 hours! I know it is just not possible so I will just go for as much as I possibly can do and continue the rest on monday! Rome is not build in one day and my GTD system isn’t either! I really admire the people who can do this in one weekend! Masters of organisation or of a organised mind, or both! I am neither so it takes loads of time but I will get there! And if I do I will throw a party I must also admit that I really enjoy the process of organising, thinking and making baby steps that on their own already make a huge difference! So I am not giving up! I am going to make this work and then move on to that level!

I cleared my desk and established a very basic system for organisation of my projects so I can work again in my office. I also deleted 4000 mails (yes, I know!) from my stressed out mailbox and deleted a dozen unnessacery folders. The big clean up of my life! It’s kind of funny how things that were super important two years ago are no totally useless… while others are still very emotional. So GTD is not only orgnaisation it is also moving on and lettin go! Very interesting! Anyway, I am now off to bed, to be continued at the same pace tomorrow, or better later today! I am proud of myself!
I will do that tomorrow! The things I need your help, inspiration and support for will happen here, the ones I just need to dig in with and work hard on, will move to an action list. I really need to clean up stuff, starting and stopping here since the total make over of my life also started here and hopefully is a never ending story continuing here for years and years to come… ;-) So not stopping, cleaning up!
since I still suck at it! My overfull desk, inbox and kilometers long to do lists in my head and everywhere around proof it! So next week I am going to invest time, effort and patience to do this the way it is supposed to be done: toroughly! I know it is going to help me tremendously getting my administration in order and my projects started so I just need to make a start and then stick to it!
and it is such a mess it is unbelievable! It is now very clear why I could not get on top of things for the past year! There was no system and if there was, it was a shitty one, so I am sooooo glad I bought this book! This is definitely going to change my life! If I can manage to get everything in my sytem and still work it at least! I need more time! Email inbox will be next! In a day or three when I have cleared my dining table fully, but at least I am doing things!
