It’s a bit boring but I really like GTD. I’ve never read the book or gone too hard into the “rules” of GTD, but just using Omnifocus for a decade has basically got me into the habit of:
- do things that take less than 5 minutes when you hear about them
- throw things that might take longer than 5 minutes or require deciding something into an inbox
- sort thru it when you have a moment
- have an auto generated list of old tasks that haven’t been reviewed to ruthlessly delete
- have an auto generated list of tasks possible to do today
And that’s about it.
I don’t think it needs to be anything strict or super comprehensive; people are right in saying that you shouldn’t fully plan out your life. I don’t track anything bigger than “vacation” or “user story” as a project, just the tasks/checklists I know I need written down and want to get floated by me when actually relevant.
