Life Organization

[James Bond]

The other day someone on here mentioned a book that was all about organizing all aspects of your life.

I went to the web page and forgot to order it.. (Oh, the ironing).

Anyone know what that was?

Here's a tip: Avoid reading all the blog crap about GTD. The geeky online segment of bloggers went crazy with this and made it infinitely more complex than it needs to be. His solution is very simple - do exactly what he says and then stick with it, that's all you need to do! There are modifications, software, additional systems, etc. etc. etc. available online and you'll no doubt finding thousands upon thousands of blog entries about it, but the reality is being organized is just about sucking it up and cleaning things out the first time, then sticking with a few key principles throughout your life.

Enjoy

One other thing -

Is this book the type of thing that only works if you follow every aspect of it to the 't', or how has it helped you in general?

Edit: Above post answered my question - Thanks Kaido!

Well yes and no. His system is a catch-all...it's designed to deal with EVERYTHING in your life from remembering meetings to changing your car's oil. Once you get it setup, it's really easy to do. It's just a habit change, that's all.
