Common mistakes in the implementation of the GTD (№5)

At the stage of the organization of which I wrote in a previous article, it can be made much more errors than I I can imagine, but still, most important my mistakes, I think I made the analysis phase and planning. The large number of routine and natural fatigue increasing the first time follow GTD stress often do not give adequate time given to the analysis made and Planning the next day. And as I wrote, I believe the only rule of successThat always works: feedback.

The first, on which I would like to draw your attention to the underestimation of the experience of others and, as a consequence - the revaluation of its forces. What I'm talking about? On the "big stones" of the day, week, month... Number three, which is recommended by almost all did not come out of nowhere. This is an experience. And after grabbing successfully completed three important things for the following important, waiting for their turn, we do not leave time for the pebbles and sand. In addition, the important things energetically and psychologically costly, otherwise they would not be significant.

As a result - fatigue and stress accumulated from routine work. In addition, you will probably not have enough time to unexpected incoming business, or had to work late. All this encourages entirely stop the analysis and planning. Therefore it is necessary to stop after the three main tasks. Perform routine associated with the current day, and then, even if time is left longer than usual - to spend on leisure and more thorough planning.

The second error related to incorrect assessment of the time and their simple solution, I will describe in the next, probably the last time this article.
