I have been following his &#8216;GTD&#8217; method for some years. The biggest takeaways of his system are the next actions list and weekly reviews. There is a lot of great material about how to systemize your tasks, I highly suggest reading it. But the weekly review and next actions list is a big part of my system for staying on top of tasks and goal setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At a broad level this is the layout of my system. At the top I have yearly\/quarterly goals and reviews set up. From there I do a weekly review to collect and process items from week to week. All of my reference notes are stored in <a href=\"http:\/\/evernote.com\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"evernote.com\">Evernote <\/a>and my tasks are tracked in <a href=\"http:\/\/trello.com\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"trello.com\">trello<\/a>. I keep most of my calendar events in google cal, but make <a href=\"https:\/\/calnewport.com\/deep-habits-the-importance-of-planning-every-minute-of-your-work-day\/\">daily time blocking<\/a> with a paper calendar using the <a href=\"https:\/\/passionplanner.com\/\">passion planner<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Right now I am not happy with Trello, it just doesn&#8217;t do everything that I want. I need a way to just log daily, where I write down thoughts and tasks. This is going to be an upcoming project for me. But I do appreciate the kanban simplicity for managing tasks. Over the years my system has undergone many changes and I foresee a lot more in the future. Expect updates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am a huge fan of the Getting things Done book by David Allen. I have been following his &#8216;GTD&#8217; method for some years.
