Strange Loops

No Matter Where You Go, There You Are

Why GTD?

One of the things that resonated with me when listening to the audiobook was Why? GTD works.

David Allen talks about the idea of “open loops” and how they occupy our mind even when we are not thinking about them. That is the point of having a system to organize things. When we are confident that we have captured everything into our system, we can rest easier knowing that nothing will slip through the cracks.

This is one explanation for why I’ve been nervous and edgy lately. A long time habit of mine is to always remember things I need to do. Lately, I’ve been forgetful and perhaps it is making me tense at some subconscious level.
