What is disagree with most in task management systems and in the common usage of these is the overwhelming reliance on dates for everything, and the whole idea of having things pop up automatically right in your face all of a sudden just because of some arbitrary date/time that you had pre-programmed long ago. When your reminder pops up out of nowhere and urges you to stop doing what you do now and start doing something else, that probably means you need to do your reviews more carefully. |

Salgud, that's perfectly ok, there is totally nothing wrong with searching for the perfect GTD tool, if that is really the thing you want to do.
Thing is, there is just too many tools out there and many folks who want to get things done just keep looking for the perfect set of features, going through various crazy overcomplicated setups just to fall off the GTD sooner or letar, not really getting anything done. Instead of moving things forward they keept experimenting with features, looking for the perfect tool. When you're experimenting with a new tool, you are making an investment. You are investing your time and effort to educate yourself on the new tool, hoping that this will pay off in the future, allowing you to become more productive. What many people don't realize is the power of GTD's mental side and the power of our minds and habits. You really can get more done using basic tools, given you stick to principles: weekly review, reviewing your lists daily and resisting the temptation to break the rules. |
