The image below is a very good illustration of the GTD process that I have been following for a long time to get things done. It's from the December 2008 issue of the Costco Connection: If I am to improve upon the process, there are two modifications I would make: Before eliminating a non-actionable item, you should find out how it goes to your "IN" in the first place. If possible, remove the source of such garbage so that you won't spend time on reviewing it in the future. If it is a big project that involves multiple steps and not important enough that you have to get on it now, one should just defer it instead of breaking it down into actionable tasks immediately. The reason is that you need time to "dive" into a big project and it is kind of a waste if you just plan it out without working on it. My personal preference is to use Google Calendar to keep track of time sensitive actions and ActiveInbox for tasks that I should work on as soon as I can. Do you use GTD to manage your tasks?

Last week I had several posts on performance measurement systems since this is the time of year when many organization are planning for the next calendar. While this isn't necessarily the Lean way it provides a good opportunity to talk about these subjects. This annual organization goal setting process is usually followed closely by the annual individual review and goal setting process. Today, I want to share a ClarityMap to help you hit your goals. A clarity map is visual guide to help give you the insight needed to make good choices. Click here for a pdf version of this map. While there a lot of valuable information on this map I quite like this: Action Creates Clarity - At first the details to achieve a goal may be fuzzy but as you take small actions toward the goal it comes more into focus. This ClarityMap is the work of Derek Franklin who was gracious enough to allow me to share it with all of you. Derek is also the creator of the 3 Steps to Get Things Done ClarityMap and The Action Machine, a visual time management software based on the above steps. The goal behind The Action Machine is simple: To give you a way to visually structure your day in a way that you feel absolutely compelled to take action and get things done, once and for all! I shared the 3 Steps to Get Things Done ClarityMap this past March. I post both of these documents next to my goals so I can use these tools to effectively focus on what is important when I get lost. Maybe it can help you, too. Stay connect to A Lean Journey on our Facebook page or LinkedIn group. Follow me on Twitter or connect with me on Linkedin.
