title:: You must use your mind to get things off your mind - Test - I suggest that you write down the project or situation that is most on your mind at this moment. What most bugs you, distracts you, or interests you, or in some other way consumes a large part of your conscious attention? - Got it? Good. Now, describe, in a single written sentence, your intended successful outcome for this problem or situation. - Now write down the very next physical action required to move the situation forward. - Was there any value for you in those two minutes of thinking? - sid, dec 2020: - yes night and day i see the light the ambiguius problem now yurned into a concrete opportunity - tuening problems into opportunity — yess nice, love it - boom 💥 - you’ll be experiencing at least a tiny bit of enhanced control, relaxation, and focus. You’ll also be feeling more motivated to actually do something about that situation you’ve merely been thinking about till now. - What changed? - What probably happened is that **you acquired a clearer definition of the outcome desired and the next action required.** What did change is the most important element for clarity, focus, and peace of mind: **how you are engaged with your world.** - But what created that? Not “getting organized” or “setting priorities.” **==The answer is, thinking.==** - The reason something is on your mind is that you want it to be different than it currently is. #gtdwisdom id:: 62cc9dec-0b76-46bc-8514-f290aa4cb369 - TODO (add zen kaanta text ) - Even if you’ve already decided on the next step you’ll take to resolve a problem, your mind can’t let go until and unless you park a reminder in a place it knows you will, without fail, look. - We need to transform all the “stuff” we’ve attracted and accumulated into a clear inventory of meaningful actions, projects, and usable information. - **amorphous blob of undoability** - Getting things done requires two basic components: defining (1) what “done” means (outcome) and (2) what “doing” looks like (action).
