Getting Things Done® – David Allen‘s methodology works great for logical persons.
Once, I wrote about these:
- A quote I like a lot: „Terminator: Desire is irrelevant. I am a machine.” – Terminator 3: rise of the machines – Blog de Olivian Breda.
- A favorite quote of mine – Captain Jack ROSS: „I represent the government of the United States without passion or prejudice” – A few good men (1992) – Blog de Olivian Breda.
While I try to force myself to do some things, energy matters a lot.
I have a lot of energy when doing things, not when sorting files on the desktop.
For this purpose, sometimes it is better not to read the emails, and instead to do the priority tasks of the day, and only later to go through the emails.
I work more efficiently in the morning.
I have some energy after working out (cardio or weight training).
I can cope with stress.
I enjoy deadlines.
Yes, knowing the principles of GTD is fine.
Knowing your limits, your tendencies, your addictions, your pleasures, your faults – these may matter even more.
