Getting Things Done GTD with Personal Development and Motivation for Success

My office is really coming on now! I will get another post done this week about my initial set up. My holiday next Sunday will sort of cut short my time in the new office, but for good reason so I will write more about how my new office is shaping up on my return. [...]

Another week over, and another great week I have had. Caught up with all my emails and sorted some projects. I always love the feeling of getting back to work after a break and being in control rather than out of control as so many are. Hopefully this is the last week without my home [...]

I am now back from what has been a totally fantastic holiday with my family in Northumberland. I was virtually disconnected for the whole week with only 2G on my iPhone and an unusable 20Kbps through my 3G modem on my MacBook Air. It was actually quite refreshing, especially for somebody like me is spends [...]

The much publicized Apple iPhone 3.0 update was released around 1000 PDT yesterday. I started my update as soon as I could and installed the latest version of the iPhone OS eagerly waiting to test out some of the new features. All very well and good. Today, my two killer iPhone Apps, OmniFocus and Evernote [...]

I am writing this post on Saturday as I am taking my wife away tomorrow for our wedding anniversary which is on Monday the 15th of June. We are staying in a nice hotel and spa to celebrate our 13 years of marriage! I started to clear out my office and I am dedicating more [...]

I have eventually got around to taking a better look at the Mac GTD app, Things, and adding to a review that I did a while ago. I currently use OmniFocus but Things and The Hit List are grabbing my attention. Anyway, here is my review and thoughts about Things. Things is a blandly named [...]

Had a great week at InfoSec in London with RandomStorm. I left early Monday and arrived home Friday. Luckily I have had the time to relax and progress my tasks and projects. Tomorrow is a Public Holiday in the UK and I am looking forward to a day at home clearing a lot of tasks [...]

I have had a week of report writing yet again. One thing for sure is that my report writing is really improving as is my ability to focus and deliver the report in the given timescales. I am spending the best part of next week down at Earls Court in London for the InfoSec show [...]

Had a great weekend mainly due to the great weather in the UK and I have spent most of it outside. Lit my new Weber BBQ a few times and cooked some great food! This week has seen me away for a few days without Internet access. It is actually quite nice not having connectivity [...]

I have just returned from a great four day break in the English Lake District with my wife. We were lucky to get babysitter for our children and we escaped for three great nights in the Lakes. On Friday we did an 8 mile walk of Loughrigg Fell. Taking in Loughrigg Tarn, Grasmere, and Rydal [...]
