Merlin Mann over at 43 Folders posted a 3-part series relating to being intentional with our time and our focus. He talks about the hard work of a creative life, and how no one but you can carve out whatever blocks of time are needed to make the creativity and work happen.
I was in the process of re-blocking my time anyway when I read this article. It really helped spur me on to making more effective use of what I considered personal time, but which is also the only time I have available for moving life goals ahead (as well as family, rest, recreation, etc.).
I have been using a program called Things as my Getting Things Done (GTD) tool of choice. It is still in the beta/development cycle, but is a good tool. Wanting a little more automation and control, I have been testing a program called OmniFocus. Not sure yet if I will switch.
Have Fun!
