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

Myself, I'm in front of a computer most of the day running Outlook, and so I keep my calendar, tasks, and contacts in Outlook and sync to my Palm when I leave the desk. However, I also have a stack of 3x5s in my pocket for data capture. This allows me to have the most current glance at my actions wherever I am (along with all my contacts and the hard landscape of time), but at the same time provides a quick capture device (note cards) when necessary. I've actually been using a PDA this way lately to great success. I basically treat it as a read-only device, for reference when I'm away from my computer, and I carry a few index cards with me for capture. But my calendar, contacts, task list on my laptop are the system of record. » POSTED IN:
