Carry Planner All the Time??
srfarr | Apr 12 2007
One of the tenets I thought David Allen put forward was to carry what ever you used as your planner (notebook or PDA) at all times. I can see the value of capturing something that comes to me at dinner, but using either of these mechanisms seems a bit much. What sort of balance do you strike? 19 Comments

No, that was the Franklin Planner guy I had a seminar with ten years ago who said we should take our planners everywhere we go -- yes, even the bathroom. David Allen suggests that you should have some sort of capture/collection tool with you at all times. In the out-of-print "GTD Fast" audio program, he explains the NoteTaker Wallet that way. "I'm not going to take this [pad/folio] with me. The dork factor is too high. Instead..." and then he elaborates on the goodness of the NoteTaker Wallet as a ubiquitous capture tool. All your notes should go into your inbox for processing, so you can take notes on anything you like. :) » POSTED IN:
