Mark, love your system!

Is Fv a time-management system or a Task-Execution Management System (TEMS)?

Regards,
DJS.

Can it be both?

I agree with Michael, but it looks like the Activity Selection System is based on a Browse, Assess, Denote preselection of tasks to complete, in other words it's BAD-ASS!

Knowledge-Integrating Completion Kind of Activity Selection System

Certainly good fun to be playing with these acronyms.

However, on a more serious note, I really am searching for another name for this system. "Final Version" is meaningful to the in-crowd - those familiar with Mark and his work. But how to refer to it with other people? I have often mentioned to people about the great help I have obtained from using a system called Superfocus. Sort of has a catchy "ring" about it, and the name relates to the purpose. Now what will I say... I have started using a great system called Final Version? Huh?

Don't get me wrong - I am excited about FV, and it looks brilliant. Thanks, Mark! Just wish it had a more relatable name.

Steve,
How about saying "Final Version" is either short for "Auto Super Focus Final Version" or for "Mark Forster's Final Version" ?

I think "Final Version" is just for us. These have all been versions of Autofocus, so I'd still just call it Autofocus to others.

The term Autofocus has been broad for search engines and keywords. Makes it harder to find us or complementary partners.
From my review of Mark's literature, I've appreciated that we are not literally managing time, but rather where we are placing our awareness. Therefore, I like to think of this work as awareness management.
