ok, i’ve read the book, and i’m most of the way there in terms of implementing the basics: i’ve swept most of my todo’s into contextual lists, i’m getting into the habit of processing my incoming paper and email aggressively, and i’m getting better at using the @waiting context for stuff that has outstanding elements before i can act on it. so far, so good.
i’m having trouble in 2 areas. 1 is coordinating the above with projects. as a primary example, i have one client who, when i call him to check in, i want to be able to tell him all the things i’ve done for him, things that i’m waiting for, things that are outstanding to-do’s, and review my agenda with him, and i need to be able to pull this all up on the fly. but they’re scattered among my various contextual lists.
the second thing is that i’m pretty well married to outlook, which i sync to a treo. the contextual to-do lists work pretty well, but i haven’t found a good way to do projects. does anyone have any good advice on this, and/or would you recommend using the GTD outlook software (it’s a bit pricey, but i suppose worth if it truly is a magic bullet).
thanks!
