Thanks for the recommendation, I'll definitely check out FTF. It sounds like something that would work for me. I am still doing a kind of GTD-lite, and I still keep my lists up to date and my inbox reasonably empty. I didn't completely throw away the whole system, but I did need to do a restart and scale it back. GTD has the concept of weekly review, where you go through all your projects and lists and make sure that everything is where it belongs. I think I got to a point where I wasn't just forgetting to do the reviews, I just flat out refused to do them. It was a conscious rebellion against the idea that we need to be as productive as possible all the time. Sometimes things are going to be messy or broken or imperfect and I needed to find a way to be ok with that - it was more an issue with me than with the GTD methodology. We broke up, but we're still friends. It's not you, it's me - that sort of thing. I still recommend GTD to people. It's a good first step for getting things under control, but not necessarily for achieving balance.
