It is a compelling read; especially given that there are so many ideas that never materialize (for better or for worse) because the lack of technical expertise. I really like the idea of accessibility for not so technical dreamers.


I have been struggling recently with this as well. Here is what I have come up with:

For Personal Daily Goals: I bought a bound journal that I write down the things I want to accomplish for the day. After I finish a task, I cross it off (odd school satification). Anything I dont accomplish by the end of the day, I assess its value and determine if I really want/need to get it done. If so, then I move it to tomorrows.

Monthly personal goals follow the same procedure with the exception that the goals arent assessed on a daily basis.

Professional/Projects: I really enjoy organizing my thoughts on Evernote. The application syncs with my phone and desktop, so I never am without it. Tasks, goals, resources, and works go into Evernote. If its more intensive, I will use the google suite to process my ideas or layouts (spreadsheet projections, complex docs, etc.)

After using this system for a while, I have found that it reduces my stress surrounding the projects. However, my solution works for me... OR so I believe... after reading some of the other comments.
