Starting GTD
A couple of weeks ago I started the process of using David Allen’s Getting Things Done personal management methodology. GTD appeals to me because of the way it starts off in dealing with the day-to-day stuff before moving on to the “higher level” stuff like life goals, etc. Why? Because if you’re not dealing effectively with the small day-to-day issues then you really won’t have the ability to give energy and productive thought to the bigger issues. It definitely is a bottom-up method.
So far so good and I’m not expecting miracles at this point. David Allen says that it usually takes a person 2 years before the method (this in a podcast talking to Merlin Mann of 43folders.com). Coming from being so disorganized its definitely going to take me a while to get the steps set as habits. I’m already finding it challenging to follow the workflow all of the time. I have to constantly remind myself to do it but I suspect thats normal trying to use this system coming from none 
Hi Jason, welcome to the club. You will probably find that starting GTD is not that difficult, but really keeping it up after a week, after a month, and after a year - that is a real challenge.
I think you will soon discover the benefits of a (possibly partially implemented) GTD system, especially if you think you are really disorganized.
Just a few pointers: check the GTD Index at gtdindex.com if you haven’t already; you will find many blogs, sites and people that can provide a helping hand with GTD.
Good luck!
