Categorized my 43T goals  — 10 months ago

Worth doing!

After some heavy brainstorming, I have basically categorized my goals by type, and by area of responsibilty:

  • (long-term) 5 goals
  • (short-term) 19 goals
  • (someday/maybe) 12 goals
  • (on-going) 7 goals
  • productivity 10 goals
  • health 8 goals
  • fun 6 goals
  • adulthood 5 goals
  • coding 5 goals
  • knowledge 4 goals

I had previously said I would consider this complete when some other condition was satisfied. Well, I think this is more on par with using 43T with a productivity mindset.

Both the sum of the parenthesis and the non-parenthesis should yield my total number of goals, meaning every goal has a type and an area of responsibility.

Now I can even draw upon this categorizing to aid in my proper GTD setup in rmilk.com

Working on it.  — 10 months ago

Worth doing!

I’m in the very fun process of implementing my GTD system. Rememberthemilk.com is my main pillar for getting things done.
Once I finish setting up projects and goals there, I’ll start linking them to 43T.

When I get THAT done, I’ll consider this goal fullfilled, even though I’ve been pretty much using it with a GTD oriantation already.

Setting goals  — 2 years ago

I’ve read a lot of articles about different self-development and organization techniques. They all have one common property – if you don’t have a set of clearly defined goals, you cannot control your life.
So, i haven’t decided yet which technique is better for me (right now i’m trying to practice GTD), but it’s seems like building list of goals is a good idea. And 43Things seems like a convinient application to do that.

public todo lists  — 3 years ago

I’m still dealing with the idea of having a public todo list and how it benfits me or anyone else. I see how a goal (a thing) equates to a project and how I can use these entries for next actions. I just haven’t figured out how going public helps except for actions which are really decisions where other people’s opinions and experiences might help. Unfortunately, most of my actions are a matter of getting around to it.

Most definitely.

Someday/Maybe  — 3 years ago

This seems a good engine for the “someday/maybe” list.

I don’t know that I’d use it for real project management, but it’s good to put long-term goals up where you can see them.

Worth doing!

I can see it can be used for a combination of someday/maybe and actual long term life goals. Also it good for getting some ideas.
