Right now, feeling a bit overwhelmed at work. Rather than deal with workload in constructive manner, am spending too much "gathering information" as opposed to "getting stuff done."
Grrr. What to do to resolve this? One idea is "if I just catch up to everything, then I can get back on track." Another school of thought is "forget about all the backlog, make sure you take of stuff from this point forward"
I'm (theoretically) using a time management system called "Getting Things Done" that uses contextual to-do lists. It's not too hard to get back on the wagon with this system, so rather than just start from scratch, I should just be harsh and cut things off my list...
