Free System from Time Management Guru

I know time management is an important topic for IMers, so thought everyone would be interested in this.

Anyone interested in time management might have heard of Mark Forster. He created a system called Do It Tomorrow (or DIT). While not quite as well-known as Getting Things Done (or GTD), DIT has a lot of loyal fans, many of whom switched over from GTD.

Well, Mr. Forster has created a new time management system called Autofocus, that he believes works even better than DIT. And, after beta-testing the system, he's releasing the AF instructions for free on his website.

The Autofocus Time Management System

There's also a discussion forum where you can read how the system worked for the beta-testers.

    • This is quite interesting but goes against my every thought of prioritizing and scheduling tasks. This is a lot more "intuitive" than grouping tasks by importance (ie, such as A being most important, B, then C being least important etc.).

      So instead he's saying to just "brain dump" your to-do list line by line (is that a bad way of interpreting it?), then let 'intuition' guide you to choosing which tasks to complete first. Maybe intuition is the wrong word but that's the idea I get from reading the full instructions.

      But the more I think about it, the more I like it. I like how the system seems to weed out unnecessary or frivolous tasks that we might think are important but later realize they are not. He suggests 25-35 lines on a page, which sounds like a lot though. I feel as if I might get a tad overwhelmed if I saw all of my to-do tasks written out like that.

      But I do find the technique very interesting and think I will give it a try! I certainly need some help in this department!

      Thank you for the info,
      Karen

  • Its a pretty interesting technique.

    I personally just go by my to do list and priortize my test according to what is most necessary in getting done first
