Have you ever experienced those days, weeks or even months where work and things to do just seems to pile up?
Have you noticed that you spend MUCH more of your time than nescessary to find out what to do and when?
And sometimes you actually forget important things to do.

Or are you one of those (us) who procrastinates? Doing tomorrow what you could’ve done today?

I’m a big fan of David Allen’s GTD system. (Getting Things Done).
The GTD system practically helps you putting things to do in system so that you’re always doing excactly
what you’re supposed to do, prioritizing the tasks for TODAY before less important tasks. (and much more)

I’m not going to explain the GTD system for you, you can findĀ out about it HERE instead.
I was sooo lazy that I could’nt even attend to my GTD system until I found this.

Kenji Ohta made some printable “folders” to sort your future tasks in.
He explains his system thoroughly, how to collect all your notes every morning and how to sort them in the folders.

The system which he calls GTD+R is pretty much like a game, where the main objective is to empty your “TODAY” folder.
An important part of the “game” is the strategy part where you write new things to do, and empty your folders in order
to sort all of your notes into the appropriate folders.

Using this system, it seems (at last) as I will be able to become and keep organized.

The cards are easily printable, and you only need to fold them following instructions.
(theres also a “gamefield” available, but I didn’t print that. Seems a bit too childish to me)
