The last month to 6 weeks has been very busy, but I have to say I have not made a lot of progress in many different areas. Before we get to the challenges let me review the positive things from the last month.
- I started attending Jelly in Melbourne and have met some great folks.
- We went to Sydney for Web Directions South 2008.
- I spoke at a user group for EmployeeConnect.
- Sat on a panel for the NSW KM Forum.
- Meet with several people around possible work opportunities.
- Helped organise the Melbourne Twitter community’s Talk Like a Pirate Day party & another MTUB meetup.
- Helped organise and attended Startup Camp Melbourne.
- Started a wild idea of mine Blue Day 2008.
- Wrote several blog posts that have focused my thoughts in some new areas.
- Read several books on business development and social media.
- Attended the AHRI HR Leadership Day.
- Begun discussions with some peers on a new project that we can’t talk about at this stage ;-).
Now the challenges.
- Being a solo operator for the last 6 months and having spent the 6 months previous working from home full time motivation can be an issue some days. The last month has been full of days like that.
- I have not completed a GTD weekly review, at all.
- Inbox is no where near zero.
- I have not finished several documents and presentations that I set as goals for September.
- To be honest I have no billable work between now and the end of the year, which is a concern.
- My hosting provider and I have had a falling out meaning I spent most of last week starting to move the dozen or so sites I have onto a brand new dedicated server. While the performance has improved this process is costing me time and money.
- I have spent a lot of time writing code on several personal projects that don’t pay any money. While I enjoy the writing of code, you can’t pay the bills with it.
Next steps.
- Complete a full weekly review, my major task of today.
- Review my value proposition of Inspecht as I have noticed the message is not clear when selling my services.
- Update the Inspecht web site with these revised service messages.
- Finish the outstanding documents from September.
- Focus on my GTD next actions so I don’t get lost again.

Sounds familiar to me. I am also struggling implementing my GTD because every minute that I don’t spend for minimum regeneration is eaten up by things that are overdue.
What about meeting for a Coffee and discuss of ways to multiply ourselves ?

BTW.: This guy in the interview believes, that GTD doesn’t work for most people:
