ActivityOwner.Com – Getting Things Done with MindManager

Early last month there was some discussion on the GTD_MindManager Yahoo group brainstorming about ways we might be able to communicate into ResultsManager remotely someday using email or smartphones. Tommy pointed out a blog entry on using mailbucket to email entries into MindManager using the RSS smart map part. Around the same time a post […]

One of of the perennial questions that comes up when using ResultsManager, or almost any personal productivity system for that matter, is how to handle with repeating items. Many repeating items (e.g. daily exercise, weekly review, etc) are important items that you want to “put in front of the door” to develop good GTD habits, […]

One of my favorite GyroQ tags is “cna” (Copy Next Actions), which is described in the “Next Actions to Go” post.

A earlier post on ActivityOwner.Com introduced a GyroQ tag to mark a task complete in a dashboard or map and save a copy of the task in a year/month/date-sorted “completed” map. The tag works well, but can be a little slow as the “completed” map grows in size. While GyroQ’s selection commands work well for […]

[Note: Gyronix is implementing some improvements in how they store tag information in the GyroQ.ini file. This may require you to reinstall some activityowner.com tags that rely on inline macros if you install the pre-release version 1.9.3. If you get an error, just go to the tag library and paste fresh packed-text into the GyroQ […]

Creating a detailed post on installing and configuring MindManager and ResultsManager has been on my someday/maybe project list for awhile. After seeing Kyle’s very useful “Top 10 Mapping shortcuts” , I thought perhaps banging out a bulleted list sooner rather than later would be useful (and get it off my list as well). The list […]

The QuickTime video loop below shows the GyroQ MindReader “process current topics” (“c”) tag acting on selected MindManager topics. Based on the keyword matches the macro sees in the user’s MindReader configuration map, it performs a GTD “process” step by setting the activity context, due dates, icons, priorities, category, area, resources, etc. Keywords contained in […]
