Attention Lifehackers

Any of y'all disciples / detractors of Getting Things Done?

Entering into another transitional state as I am, I have an opportunity to sniff at new productivity philosophies. This one seems to have a substantial amount of cred among full-time net-babblers, but not necessarily among anyone I know personally.

Still, I am starting to get the impression that my own "four pillars" system may be an attempt to implement it without actually having read any of the source material (but being vaguely aware of it for years).

Seriously? Even after paring down all the things you could accomplish in less than 2 minutes? (I'm assuming you weren't counting your Someday/Maybes in that 500...)

Not counting shit in 2 minutes, counting someday/maybes. But this was all at at work. So someday/maybe is like 'we should really SHOULD upgrade this, but its not going to explode any time soon'.

Then again, I was the lead technical guy at a hospital and massively overworked and underpaid. GTD turned into my ticket queue from hell.
