it's my island

To be like the cool kids I want to play in the [GTD Meme](http://gtd.marvelz.com/blog/2007/06/13/starting-a-gtd-meme-your-killer-gtd-setup/) setup by gtdfrk. I’ve been juggling this article amongst a number of fireballs recently and while it’s taken a little while to get out it wouldn’t have gotten this far without GTD.

We live in a moment of [impermanence](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impermanence). If we live in such a moment why aren’t we making the most of it. Why give energy into anything other than enjoying the experience by maximizing it? I have (with great consultation of my wife) resigned from my former employ. That is to say I have left […]

Yesterday I finished David Allen’s “Ready for Anything: 52 Productivity Principles for Work and Life“. If you are in the concourse of productivity, looking for gems and fine tuning, questions to ask yourself (and [ready to answer](http://blog.nuancelabs.com/2007/02/27/the-importance-of-managing-self/)) then you’re ready to read this offering. I’ve had the book in my possession for years. Picked it […]

We’re back from our quick stint in New York City. Whenever we are in the area I feel like crack is in the water.

What do you do in the city […]

I can’t seem to get enough of the cold weather so we’re going to head to New York and stay in the city a few days. Arriving Wednesday leaving Sunday, we’ve got to hunker down to a [David Allen](http://www.davidco.com) [seminar](http://www.davidco.com/seminars/seminar_the_roadmap.php) on Thursday. Robin’s really been getting into the GTD swing and once we’re both equalized […]

>Focus on positive outcomes and continually take the next action of the most important thing. –David Allen

I tried to get a jump in this weekend but I got on the idea too late and thus couldn’t get on manifest. I turned around and decided to continue the purging and reformation of my office. I’ve fallen out of my [GTD](http://www.amazon.com/Getting-Things-Done-Stress-Free-Productivity/dp/0142000280/sr=8-1/qid=1161623271/ref=pd_bbs_1/102-5890739-0898562?ie=UTF8&s=books) swing and I needed to reinvest the time to get back on […]
