We’re wrapping up a day that only appears on the calendar once every four years. It’s a year where we get an extra day tacked on for good measure – scientific measure, I imagine – but what do we do with that extra day? Do we see it as bonus or just see it as […]
In my short time with Asana, I’ve already found a few things that it handles better than OmniFocus – and I’m talking beyond the whole team collaboration thing here. It all has to do with adaptability.
People seem to avoid productivity systems because they don’t like systems. Because systems generally only work when you make sure that every part of it works. So if you’re “doing GTD”, then you need to do every part of it in order for it to be effective. And for GTD to be truly GTD, that
I have had a long-standing productivity love affair with OmniFocus. But I’m spurning it for a new (and more suitable) tool: Asana. Yep, I’m removing everything from the app I’ve used for years and investing in one I’ve used for only a few months. Some people have called me crazy to do so, and even

So rather than post some fresh material I thought I’d refresh some older stuff that I rather enjoyed writing here, there and everywhere. It’s my Top 10 Opinionated Countdown…in no particular order. Enjoy. 1. Struggling vs. Smuggling Wherein
I used to be an avid reader of Lifehacker. Back when Gina Trapani ran things, I got a lot out of the site. In fact, it’d be one of the places that helped get me into this whole productivity racket. That site, along with Merlin Mann’s 43Folders and David Allen’s body of work were the
I tend to listen to a lot of podcasts, borderline on being a bit of a junkie. I listen mainly when I’m unwinding from the day, doing yard work, commuting and doing housework. If I’m not blaring something from my Rdio collection, I’ve got a podcast doing the blaring instead. The problem with a heavy
