Reviewing my ResultsManager review dashboard this morning I found just a couple of projects related to my “blog” area and a long list of someday/maybes. I thought it might be useful to solicit reader guidance on where it would be most valuable for you to focus. Basically I’m wondering whether to focus on discussing, enhancing, […]

Two of the biggest barriers to making good use of ResultsManager for Getting things Done (GTD) tend to be (1) the need to manually refresh dashboards and (2) the need to access to do list items away from your computer. When you sit down to get too work, the last thing you want to do […]

Back on New Year’s day I proposed Five Metrics for assessing the state of your GTD system. The idea was to assess the Freshness, Focus, Feasibility, Foresight, and Finishing (5F’s) of your current next actions and combine these into an overall score. The Next Action Analysis macro calculates and sorts these metrics for ResultsManager users […]

The Next Action Analysis tool’s report has evolved quite a bit over the last two weeks (see picture below) since the initial post (5 metrics for assessing your GTD System).

2007 was a year we largely focused on improved capturing and staging of tasks with tools like MindReader, Mark Task Complete, and OutlLinker. Perhaps 2008 can focus on improved weekly review and action? To kick it off and to provide some group moral support for getting things done, I’d like to propose the following contest: […]
