I have been reading up on GTD (Getting Things Done) techniques and playing with some software meant to help.  One program I have been trying out is a beta release of a program called ActionTastic.  Very straightforward software that lets you create a sort of outline of contexts and project lists and todo lists.  I use iCal to create calendars and mail.app for my email.  I have a plugin in mail.app that creates todo lists in iCal from email.  I hope that the creator of ActionTastic comes up With some similar options.

Organization has been a problem for me all through my life and I am really working at improving that.  If software will help that – hurray!  I looking forward optimistically to getting more organized at work and hope that developing better habits there will spill over into all areas of my life!  Guess that’s a lot to expect from software but “ya gotta start somewhere”…
