Out and about
I’ve found a great little trick for whenever I’m out and about and don’t have my notebook with me. Whenever I think of something, I whip out my mobile phone and bang out a quick e-mail to myself with the to-do, and then when I’m back at my desk, I manually transfer items from my inbox to my notebook.
Scheduling
A few people have asked about how I do calendaring and address management. Actually, it’s nothing special. I just use iCal and Address Book in Mac OS X and synchronize those with my mobile phone.
That’s it!
So that’s it, GSD in a nutshell. One place for all your to-dos and notes, a quick and dirty way to managing them, and no need to buy special software or spend hours with a cumbersome prioritization scheme.
If you’re looking for a Miquelrius notebook of your own, I have found them periodically available at my local Barnes & Noble. I prefer the 6-inch x 8-inch 300-page version with a black cover and grid rule.
Enjoy, and contact me if you have any questions or comments.
