GTD Computer Desktop Organization

In: Productivity

17 Apr 2008

I was very proud of myself today for finally seeing the obvious solution to my Mac desktop clutter. Simply apply the GTD / Inbox Zero concepts to my desktop! Behold, my neat and tidy Mac desktop:

No more do I have random files strewn about adding to my stress. I simply dump downloads and incoming files into my “Inbox” folder and then process it just like my email inbox and my real-world inbox. Longer-than-two-minute actions go in the “Action Required” folder and long-term questionable things go into “Someday Maybe”. My stress level just dropped by 25%. Try it!
