Autofocus users meetup in Budapest

We are planning to have a meetup of Autofocus users.  Details will follow.

List of time management methods

Here is an alphabetical list of personal productivity / time management methods I stumbled upon. I tried some of them.

• Action Machine
• Autofocus
• DIT (Do It Tomorrow)
• GTD (Getting Things Done)
• Pomodoro technique
• ZTD (Zen To Done)

Please, let me know if you know of another method missing from this list.

Autofocus survey

I’m going to make a survey on how people are using Autofocus. Reading the Autofocus forum at Mark Forster’s site gave me some ideas. Some readers already made informal polls on various subjects, such as

• Personality type (MBTI, Enneagram, etc)
• Occupation
• Time usage (how much time you allocate for it; used for work or for hobby; etc)
• Notations, symbols used
• What changed in your life since using it (this was actually asked by me)

There are some questions I find interesting, including

• Other time managment systems used before (GTD, DIT, etc)
• Satisfaction (perfect, I use it with tweaks, not for me)
• Statistics (tasks done a day – a recurring topic on the forum)
• Use it for something specific (e.g. for writing)
• Do you want to try another system?
• Did you talk any friend into trying it?
• Do you or would you use it in a team setting with co-workers

Feel free to contribute to this list by posting a comment.

The Cult of Done

They wrote the Cult of Done Manifesto in 20 minutes, because they had 20 minutes to get it done. I find it similar to my concept of “half-done”, they are just less scrupulous than me. I actually have more to say about it. But that’s enough for now, it’s done.
