Thank you.

My system is based around Googles programs. I use Gmail as my next actions (I mail myself…) and Projects as well in Gmail. My Calender is Google’s and Goals/Vision/Purpose I have in Google Docs. So as you can see, I put all my stuff in the “cloud”, that was the lesson I learned after the carsh. :-) I also have an Android phone off course!

I also put my work in Gmail although we have Outlook at work. May seem unnecessary but in the process of sending e-mails from Outlook to Gmail I decide what the e-mail means to me and if it’s worth a next action or if it can be trashed/archived. I throw away a lot of e-mails this way!

Sweden is my favorite country for spending my holiday, because there’s less stress (and a lot more forests!) than here in The Netherlands. That’s what I thought…

Your story makes me renew my vision on Sweden ;-) Great to hear that GTD gave you more balance in life. Keep it going! For the sake of our Swedish fellows, and for the sake of my stressfree holiday ;-)

I, too, have had reduced metal noise and it has made a huge difference in my life. I have been able to connect with my spirituality as well and have launched a new career as my purpose has become clearer. Thanks for sharing your story.

I’m interested in the tools being used successfully, as you have Home/Work combined. That would be tricky, in my case, given the nature of my work (a regulated industry), but I can think of some possibilities. Also, how are you doing things differently since your data crash (i.e., how are you backing up)?
