Different Tools/System for Work and Personal Stuff
Patrick Rhone | May 18 2006
I was just wondering if there was anyone else out there that, like me, uses different GTD tools for personal items and work? For example, for a personal capture device I use and Moleskine Ruled Pocket Notebook. For my work capture device I use a Levenger Notepad (The letter sized Cornell-like one), For whatever reason, I am far more comfortable using a standard letter sized pad at work, one page a day, carrying forward any undone items to a new page and filing yesterdays away (though I am strongly considering a Circa). This is only one example and there are at least a couple of others. Is there anyone else who does something like this? 6 Comments

Patrick, I don't have separate...Submitted by Berko on May 18, 2006 - 10:39pm.
Patrick, I don't have separate tools or systems for home and !home but I definitely work differently when I am on the move vs. stationary. I am a student working two student jobs and doing school work. So, I have to have my system mobile with me. I do project brainstorming/planning on a legal pad, but all my projects and NAs get tracked in my hPDA. When I am at home, however, I pull out my index cards and put them in my business card bleachers and take out my index card box and keep it on the desk. Whereas when I am on the go, I keep my action cards in my pocket briefcase (not Levenger, so no caps, natch) when I am at home, several get pulled out to be in front of me at once. I would write more but it's late. HTH. » POSTED IN:
