		<description>I am open to all of the ideas noted, except I disagree with the concept that being late has everything to do with underestimating your time.  For many, many years I was chronically late everywhere.  I tried things like getting  up earlier and getting my things ready from the day before, It did not matter.  Things &quot;always happened to me&quot; that kept me from being on time.  Time perception may have played a part of it, but really for me it was a matter of really getting a sense of not only how this thing was impacting every area of life, but also the impact it had on others around me.  I don&#039;t mean it was necessary for me to beat myself up over it or allowing others to &quot;make me&quot; feel bad about it.  I just mean, I became of aware of it.  I then decided that it was important enough for me to make a commitment to myself to be on time everywhere.  

I then begun to take whatever actions were true to my commmitment.  One thing that helped me tremendously is something you&#039;ve alrady mentioned (although I didn&#039;t write it down, but I think I&#039;ll try that just to see what comes up)was becoming aware of the things I did when getting ready.  Turns out, If I got up earlier, for instance, I&#039;d end up doing other things I didn&#039;t get done the day before. I&#039;d &quot;take advantage of the time&quot; and start making phone calls, get on the internet, etc.  The Internet, that was the worst for me.  

Anyway, thank you for the tips.</description>

		<description>Where have you been in my life! I presume working with top echelon executives; when these ideas a critically required at the project facilitation producer levels!

Classism is always with us!

@ny rate: thank you so very much for your magnanimity of spirit which I for the first time in several years anticipate that applying your system(s); e.g., Autofocus, especially, will finally engage my energies in dispatching a critically necessary yet abhorred major task! I&#039;ll keep you posted as well as spread the word among receptive others.</description>

		<description>Great advice.

For implementing GTD you might try out this web-based application:

http://www.gtdagenda.com

You can use it to manage your goals, projects and tasks, set next actions and contexts, use checklists, schedules and a calendar.
A mobile version and iCal are available too.

Also prioritizing everything, as Tim Ferris recommends.

Hope you like it.</description>

		<description>Time is the one thing everyone has the same amount of in any given day.  I have been adopting the GTD methods of organizing and getting things done and suggest www.nozbe.com as a tool to help others.  For those of us juggling careers, family and fun always struggle with finding enough time to get it all done.  I also believe that the effectiveness of &quot;multi-tasking&quot; is a myth.  You wind up doing a lot of work on a lot of things that never seem to get done.</description>

		<description>Nice writeup, but two objections against the GTD part: (1) The book that started the whole cult is called &quot;GetTING Things Done&quot; and (2) I regard David Allen more of an efficiency than an effectiveness guru. There&#039;s not a lot about values and goals in his book(s).</description>
