What do I do with reasonably large tasks that are due at some point in the future? Ok, thanks - I was thinking of something like the first approach. I guess my question then is how do you decide on those due dates and how flexible are you with them? Do you pick them pretty arbitrarily? Do you choose them at times you think you'll be free? I'm specifically thinking of the situation where I get a reminder alarm, and I'm supposed to immediately start working on it (maybe that's not reasonable and I'm being too rigid). Is it ok to postpone them in this case, as long as it's not for too long? |

How can I deal with my personal email while working a full-time job? Thanks. And yes, I know I can't spend a lot of time - that's the essence of my question. Sadly just about everything automated is filtered out already too - I'm insane about creating these filters (I have tons) and it works well - I get about 100 a day, have a canned gmail search to see them, skim a few per day. These are pretty much all personal emails (10-15 per day) from friends/family/recruiters which for the most part require personal responses. |

What techniques can I use to remember to do simple things that are context sensitive? Thanks for the response. You're right, these are (somewhat) important, just not as important as other things (e.g. paying my credit card bill is more important the binder clip!). And the tags for certain contexts could work - I just don't know if I would even think to look at my todo list when I go to take a shower! However, perhaps just putting it on the list and looking at that list throughout the day, as I normally do, will be enough. |

What books are helpful when I'm in a rut, creativity and productivity-wise? I'm certainly open to fiction, but I was really thinking about non-fiction. It could either be something like you mentioned that would explicitly offer techniques/suggestions, or just something insprirational (in the way that seeing a live band perform makes me motivated to work on my music). Thanks! |
