Top Ten Signs You’re a GTD Disciple


10. While driving home from work, you have to pull over three times to jot it down and empty your mind.

9. You put your weekly review on a Someday/Maybe list. … NOT!

8. You go to McDonalds for lunch but – before ordering – you draw a mind map of what an ideal fast food meal would look and taste like.

7. You use a Brother P-Touch to label your kitchen drawers.

6. You actually know how to pronounce, “Moleskine.”

5. You actually understand the workflow chart in GTD.

4. You know the difference between 40,000 and 30,000 feet perspectives.

3. You know that the “two-minute rule” has nothing to do with the conclusion of football games.

2. When you get together with friends, you say, “Show me your project list!”

1. After five minutes of foreplay, you pause and ask your partner, “What’s the next action?”

I thought the 2 minute rule had something to do with how long your food
could touch the floor when you drop it and it would still be OK to eat
it? Oh wait, 2 minutes is a little long for that ;)

.... or remembering from high school... it could also be how long you
wait before it's ok to leave class if the teacher isn't there.
