How to implement GTD for university students
Lilly252 | Jan 15 2006
Hello all, This weekend I took out seven HUGE trash bags out of my office after cleaning everything hidden in every corner. I had boxes that had never been unpacked from four moves ago that are GONE! What a liberating feeling! I don't have my tickler file set up, but have my someday/maybe and my "next actions" set up. The entire office is set up like a GTD Central Command. I had been using the Hipster last semester before life took a weird turn. Anyways.... the reason for my question is this... I'm a doctoral student, and as such I have weekly assignments for classes, papers for the semester, and some independent projects that I"m working on like grant proposals, etc. I keep wondering what the best way of keeping track of everything, and I can't come up with anything concrete, so I thought I'd consult with the experts on this board. Thanks! 61 Comments

I have a friend who has his entire dissertation research on his memory stick, though that might or might not be possible for everyone. Please tell me your friend has backed up his memory stick (hopefully in a couple of locations)! I read a newspaper article recently about a woman whose flash drive (containing the only copy of her work) was in her bag and the bag got stolen. She was lucky and ended up finding her belongings in a dumpster somewhere. » POSTED IN:
