Comments on: Getting Things Done? How about “Getting Something Done” http://emergent.urbanpug.com/?p=47 Order from disorder - Thoughts about where technology is going. Tue, 10 Mar 2015 22:09:43 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=4.2.38 By: Todd V http://emergent.urbanpug.com/?p=47&cpage=1#comment-2429 Mon, 09 Oct 2006 19:26:50 +0000 http://emergent.urbanpug.com/?p=47#comment-2429 I agree with you and I write a bit about this in a backstory I wrote up just before I released a set of applescripts to help mac-users integrate all of their files and programs into David Allen’s GTD workflow. One of the things I mention in the backstory is the “Downside” of lists and the Power of One-At-A-Time. Most GTD implementations gravitate towards list managers and I’ve found that this often makes my mind “freeze” up between two or more things or just get overwhelmed by the list itself. That’s why I’ve tried to take the One-at-a-time principle David Allen suggests for getting the inbox to empty and apply that throughout my entire GTD workflow. That’s why I designed these applescripts because I realized that I needed the leverage that one-at-a-time would afford me. The scripts may not be a solution for you but you may like to read the backstory I wrote up for them in relation to this post of yours on “Getting Something Done.”
