When working on a project, one needs to dedicate time and space in order for the planning process to be done. Each project will need a specific set of tools depending on the size of the project. These projects can range from building a house to completing your homework. Each project will require you to think. A way to decrease the strain on your mind is to writing down ideas and actions that need to be accomplished right away. This event is a great way to help lower the strain on your mind. When I take showers, I always use that time to think about future business ideas, or a conversation I had to have with someone, but I always forget what I was thinking about by the time I get out of the shower and dried off. This event always frustrates me as I forget what I was thinking about, but from reading Getting Things Done, I have kept my phone by me when I am taking a shower so that I can take notes on my ideas so that I won’t forget them. Before when I forgot my ideas I would constantly become overwhelmed as I would try so hard to remember what I was thinking about or if I needed to get a task done, it would loom over me until I remembered it. I couldn’t go to bed stressing about something, but ever since I started keeping my phone by the shower and taking notes I have also noticed my stress level going down as well as my ability to go to sleep at a reasonable time. I see this book as a way to not only be organize, but to also live a healthier lifestyle. My family has a history of high blood pressure, which is from stress, but as I follow this book’s guidelines I am starting to notice my stress level decreasing.
