This is so cool I want one, yet I’m torn by the fact that I know I’ll never use it.  Should I get one? Its only 6 bucks.

Getting Things Done by David Allen

Thursday, October 12th, 2006

This book is showing great promise for me. I have not yet implemented the major components but I can see that they could be very good.

In particular, I often feel like I have way too much crap to store in my mind. Sometimes, this just feels overwhelming. For example, you start thinking that you have to go to the library to return the book but you already have another book late and you realize you have to get an oil change but there that phone call you have to make in a day or two and that is when your anniverserary is but you have to remind yourself to get flowers.

Does that sound familiar?  This book really aims at curbing that type of problem and offers a concrete methodology to move forward.
