Life reflecting what I need to do.
A prime example of why I need to be be more organized, and why the world needs ubiqx (project idea I have had form many years) … I made an appointment with a lady, but it got entered into my phone, my phone (being the normal variety and not one that I typically use to store appointments in because I don’t sync it with anything). End result, the meeting got forgot about (completely left my brain) until 30 minutes before the meeting, at which time my phone made a little jingle noise that caught my attention. But there was no way for me to get to the meeting on time, so I had to call and apologize, and then re-schedule.
Now if I was on top of things, I would have moved my appointment to my iCal and everything would have been gravy. But because I never use the schedule in my phone, I didn’t think of it. (Clearly another case for why I could use an iPhone). This is exactly he type of thing that drive me nuts, so I added a few things to my GTD schedule and with some luck that will be the last time I have to re-schedule an appointment because of a lack of organization on my part.
The GTD stuff really is simple to adopt, I have only been at it for a few days and already things are coming together, I can see the next steps required for all of the tasks on my plate and that gives me a lighter / good feeling. As long as I can keep with it, I know this is going to make a huge impact on my life. I will admit that I feel kinda dumb for not implementing these simple principals sooner, but I still know forgiveness for myself when I fail, so I trudge happily forward. 
I’ve started taking advantage of my morning commute again, (I don’t do the driving in Wed, Thurs, or Fri) … This turns out to be an ideal time to make sure I’m caught up and review what I need to get done for the day. It also makes the ride in go uber quick, and makes me start the day off feeling productive.
