A couple of thoughts here, if you are interested in thinking outside the box
...
Firstly, what time management system will work for you depends more on your
personality than on the system. IOW, GtD is not the "best" system ... nor
is Covey's ... nor anyone else's. A system has to work the way you do. So

No, I wouldn't. I believe in GTD, next actions are supposed to be
extremely small, like "find your W-2 form in the folder".

I started off doing an "almost complete mental sweep".

(Let's face it "complete mental sweep" is just a metaphor. If you are
mathematics professional, for argument's sake, just the declarative
knowledge you have related to your work can fill bookshelves. But I'm
digressing...)

I think the problem I had when I tried following GTD fairly closely

I think the David Allen question would be not so much how you can
tweak the system, but what's going on inside you that's causing the
fail?

1. Do you have everything captured? Have you done a mental sweep
recently?
2. Are you questioning whether this is the *most important* thing you
need to be doing right now? Have you done a review recently?

I haven't had time to do a lot of reading about it (productivity
system fail I guess) but their system seems to be based around your
personality rather than a system. It seems like a good idea.

Hi.
I suggest you try to set up MIT's = Most Important Tasks.

Go through your Nexty Actions and select 3-5 for a day, not more, and
ask yourself for each: Would you be happy with what you have achieved
when you only get those MIT's completed.
I am using the Star-function in MonkeyGTD to highlight them, or you

focusing on one project a day

fft1...@gmail.com (fft1976@gmail.com) — Tue, 23 Jun 2009 20:18:32 UT

GTD isn't working out for me as well as I'd hoped. I'm procrastinating
about projects that are important to me, and the stress is still
there.

My new idea is to organize projects into approximately 1-2 day chunks,
prioritize them, and focus on one thing, e.g. "file tax returns",
"read that manual" until it's done. The reasoning being that the
