Thanks for the rap Rosa. Personally I relate to your term "my-tech" and feel that we would all be more comfortable in the changing world of technology if we made a decision, like you have, on what level of technology works for us and our situation.

There are many definitions of technology and one of my favourites is "the practical application of knowledge especially in a particular area". It doesn't relate to the tools (or toys) we use and whether they are the latest and greatest. Technology is about the practical application of knowledge and if that means the best manual note-keeping methods using pen and paper, then that too is technology.

Thanks for the reminder about Excel as a list keeping tool :o)

Wow Rosa, this has been quite a series of blog posts - great and timely reading for someone who is re-assessing (again!) systems to organise and manage things. I think the biggest idea I got from your writing (but certainly not the only one) is that there is no 'best' way - it's an organic, developing thing - this being organised - and therefore the best thing for me to do is stop already with the decision paralysis and just get on with it.

You've simplified things here for me with your series of posts - and I for one am grateful.

Thank you Leah and Karen for your comments! This update was not something that was easy for me to write; I’ve been putting off my GTD year-later report for quite some time now —those in my coach and learn program who had requested it from me have been very, very patient! I do think of this kind of productivity detail as being a pretty personalized thing, and I had a hard time imagining it would be interesting to anyone else but me, so I am exceptionally grateful for your reading and responding to it! Mahalo nui loa.

ROSAisms :-) :-)

I bet writing about your personal organization was therapeutical! I can most certainly relate to what you had to go through to get to this point...it is a never ending journey.
