Getting Things Done for Outlook — The anthonyjhicks.com System
Posted on 18. Feb, 2008 in Daily
Here's my system for Getting Things Done using your Inbox in Outlook:
- Print the image above on a colour printer, cut it down to card size and stick it to your monitor.
- Group your Inbox by Flag Status and sort by Header Status so the Red flag appears at the top.
- Set your default flag to Blue.
- Use your Inbox from the bottom, knock over the > 2 minute tasks straightaway.
- Prioritise the rest using the appropriate flags.
- Use Reference sparingly. I usually keep Low Priority and Reference collapsed in the Inbox view.
- Email tasks to yourself that don't arrive as an actionable email from someone else.
