Testing the New System - Update

I’m sorry to report that the test of my new system has crashed and burned.

That’s not because I wasn’t getting the work done which I’d planned . It was working absolutely fine.

It’s because in the middle of the trial I was struck with an idea for an entirely new way of doing things. Well, I say “entirely new” but of course these ideas are always building on ideas that I and others have had in the past.

It was such an amazing idea that I couldn’t wait - I just had to get going on it right now.

So what I’m now planning to do is to play around with it for the next few days, and then start a formal week’s trial next Monday.

I’m sorry to keep delaying things, but if this works out it will be worth the wait!

A few pointers to whet your appetite:

It uses some of the techniques in my first book Get Everything Done but with an entirely new angle

It’s a sort of “no-list” system, but not like any of the ones we’ve had up to now

It has a minimum of rules and you don’t even have to keep to those

It gets work done very fast

It’s especially ideal for tackling big projects, small tasks, easy tasks, difficult tasks, backlogs, boring stuff, exciting stuff, stuff you’re stuck on, distractions, interruptions, emergencies. Did I leave anything out? If I did, it’s ideal for tackling those too!

It prevents you from taking too much work on, but allows you to get a whole lot more done than you ever did before!
