Zen to Done: Finding Productivity
Some time ago I read and reviewed The Power of Less by Leo Babauta and really connected with the approach and goal oriented but organized methods. I have taken the dive and started into his productivity system, Zen to Done (ZTD for short).
The system is a modification of the Getting things Done by David Allen combined with some of the Stephen Covey ideas, all run through Leo’s setup.
I have read through the book. That is the easiest part. Implimenting them is the trick. I am currently trying to make a habit of the Capture step. Basically using a few dedicated “inboxes” to capture thoughts, to-do’s, ideas, nearly anything along with the real inbox items of mail, papers, memos, etc. I have also started into the beginning of Processing (step 2). Would be difficult to just capture in solitary. You would have one helluva backlog!
So – this is a many months type of thing. I hope to make it stick. I am taking a positive stance that it will.
