mGTD in green!

Stefanos Karagos | January 10, 2007

No, I have not ready the next version of mGTD.
Yes, finally I found some time to create the green version of mGTD v1 :-)
Also, I'm reloaded again the 3 other colored versions, because of some small but important layout corrections.

Here are all colors together:
Green
Blue
Orange
Red

Any feature request for adding into the forthcoming version?

mGTD: GTD for Moleskine v1.0

Stefanos Karagos | December 20, 2006

Here I am again!
In-between of my testings, the new Lexus RX07h [the hybrid 4x4 car] and the new superb Sanyo Xacti HD1a HD camera, I finally found some time to work for THE project :-)

Well, it's time for a new version of GTD for Moleskine system. The paper system that you can use it with your Moleskine, everyday!

Mr Michael Ramm, one of the men behind the great Black Belt Productivity is the "godfather" of the new name of GTD for Moleskine system!
We had a great email exchange all these days and I have to admit that Mr Black Belt Productivity is a brilliant and very creative man!
Michael also gave me a lot of ideas and his contribution to this version was more than valuable!

Well the improvements from the first version are:
1. size has change so the color spread is the only thing that bleeds out of the Moleskine planner
2. Next Actions entries are 20 per page giving more space for writing
3. We made also some arrangement for "Some Day/maybe" and "Waiting for" fields
4. Now we have 3 different color versions: Orange, Red, Blue
5. Each page has crop marks for easy cutting
6. Each version has the main mGTD page and also 3 more back-page options: a. a daily scheduler, b. a contact names page and c. a landscape mindmap playground!

So now, you can have the mGTD sheet which fits better to your daily needs ;-)

If you want to have an idea about the mGTD system, take a look at the following images:

And if you are ready to use the mGTD v1.0 system here are the PDF files, ready for printing:
mGTD Orange
mGTD Red
mGTD Blue

Hmmmm, I know that shapes with rounded corners are very popular, so I promise that the next version will be a more Web2-like, with more improvements too ;-)

So use the current version, test it, comment about your experience of using this and... stay tunned!

PS: Special thanks to Diana for her help to the mGTD project!

3 more GTD wallpapers!

Stefanos Karagos | December 18, 2006

Before some weeks I created the first GTD wallpaper, using MindManager and Photoshop.

Today I'm sharing 3 more wallpapers that I created using MindManager, Powerpoint 2007 and Photoshop.

The first one is inspired from David Allen's book showing a "cloudy" workflow and the other two play the roll of everyday teaser :-)
Did you GTD today?


Full resolutions for 4:3 [2048x1536] and wide size [1920x1080] versions are included.

GTD workflow: 4:3 | wide
Teaser 01: 4:3 | wide
Teaser 02: 4:3 | wide

All free to use.

GTD for Moleskine

Stefanos Karagos | December 15, 2006

Update:
The new improved version can be found here!

As you can see here, I'm a GTDer :-) This is the first point...
The other one is that before 3 or 4 years, I discovered the amazing Moleskine planners and notebooks [yes, i know! Shame on me :-)] and from then I consider myself a Moleskine ...evangelist.

Trying to integrate the GTD method into my Moleskine planner, I designed a "GTD" A5-sized sheet that helps me on my daily efforts to apply the GTD procedure.

The idea behind is, that if the Moleskine planner itself, is the "basket" where we collect the everyday "stuff", then the only thing we need is to have an easy reachable place for the lists of: Actions, Waiting for and Someday/Maybe entries.
Well, after this simple thought, I designed the "beta" version of my "GTD 4 Moleskine" A5-sized sheet, and I have to admit that it helps me a lot, everyday.

Here you can find in PDF format, the two layouts of the same sheet.
Personally I'm using the one with the yellow side-box because it is easily visible, when I have a lot of paper-stuff inserted in my Moleskine planner. [Yes i use my planner as a daily paper-cabinet too :-)]

I would like to have your helpful comments about my "GTD 4 Moleskine" sheet, in order to make it a real useful tool that we can use it with our beloved Moleskine planner [and why not, with notebooks too]

Any suggestion or idea will be more than welcome!
