GTD the "new" way?

Posted March 6th, 2008 by sangahm

Excuse me for possibly duplicating a question, but I'm trying to set up LB for use in a GTD type of system. I have the old 2003 Ratz pdf, but understand from various other recent messages that it is no longer valid.

There was a pointer to look at this thread from 2004:
http://www.llamagraphics.com/drupal/forums/using-life-balance-effectivel...

However, the first message seems to be cut off, right before ratz explained how his new system functions differently than the 2003 way.

The last sentence reads:
"as evidenced by "Basic Approach to the Complex" and "The Beginner..." then drops off. Is there more?

Can someone help me understand the "new" way to go about setting this up?

Hi there,

Thanks for reporting the truncation issue in the old forum post. It looks like that did not convert properly from the old server. We should be able recover that. We will need to do some work to figure out why it didn't make it to the new server though and dig into the backups to get at it, so please be a bit patient on that.

Best wishes,

Excellent, I can wait a bit

Excellent, I can wait a bit longer. I am trialing the software and found another discount code that extends my personal trial period another week and a half (but still less than the 30 days in the full trial....I am driven by the lower cost).

The problem predates the conversion to the new site... sorry

Hi there,

We went back to the backups of the DCForum web site before we transfered over to the new web site, and unfortunately that post was truncated BEFORE the transition, so we do not have it anymore.

We do have this one from Ratz:

The formatting is a bit weird, but it may give you some ideas.

Also, we still have the "starter template" exchange file that captured Ratz's thoughts on that. This link is probably the most helpful thing for you that we had from him:

Sorry we don't have that particular thread anymore.

Best wishes,

I have all the original articles saved. Unfortunately much of the gold was in the followup conversations and the things that others added. The web archive is a great tool but if anyone needs the originals of any iteration I still have them; and I still use the same philosophies in the running of our now 3 year old business..... I should be available for a few more months; then I'm moving into the mountains and there might be a few months of dead air while I get the satellite system functions..... YES way into the mountains....

That would be great!

Hi there Ratz,

Congratulations on the business and the move to the mountains! I seem to be heading more towards sea level myself! :-)

About the articles...I have tried to keep 8+ years of posts mostly because there IS continuing interest in those articles of yours. The long posts got truncated. I don't know when or why, but sometime before the move to the new server. (So far, drupal is being more reliable and easier to maintain.)

So if you do repost the articles, I'm sure people would enjoy that. I will try to also keep a "spare" copy of them around too.

Always a pleasure to hear from you!

Best wishes,

There is GREAT interest from
