Ready-Set-Do! - GTD Implementation for the Mac

Ready-Set-Do! is a full GTD-implementation for the mac. It now comes with three Quicktime movie tutorials that give a quick overview of the core GTD habits (great even for non-mac users!).

The advantage of this approach to GTD on the mac is that it comprehensively integrates all of one's files and programs into the GTD workflow without locking users into a program that may or may not have long-term future software support.

Once installed just choose one of the following from the Ready-Set-Do! folder in your dock:
1. Empty Your Head
2. Get INBOX to Empty
3. Get Some ACTIONABLES Done
4. Get Clear on PROJECTS
5. Follow-Up WAITING FORS
6. Get Some READING Done
7. Do DAILY REVIEW
8. Do WEEKLY REVIEW
9. Make Action Lists?
10. Ready-Set-Do! Help?

The site also has numerous other Xtras on productivity you may find useful:
? 10 Reasons Why Actionables Linger
? Pruning Your GTD System Checklist
? Why It's Not Getting Done Checklist

If you would like to try Ready-Set-Do! out (or you know others who would), I would greatly appreciate any feedback.

Sincerely,

Todd V
Ready-Set-Do! Creator

Bio

A 4 year + connoisseur of all things Getting Things Done. His encounter with David Allen's GTD® methodology eventually led him to create the Ready-Set-Do! GTD program - a file-system approach to getting things done on the mac. His graduate studies also led him to create the Speak It On My iPod program for converting text into audio files one can listen to on one's iPod. He continues to search for new ways to motivate himself and others to be more productive and efficient in their workflows.

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
