Not getting things done

I wouldn’t normally do this. Not my remit, blah, blah, blah. But another hilarious post by that canadian girl made me laugh aloud (and snort beer through my nose) about all this GTD nonsense.

Reminds me of my favourite quotation ever: “The art of writing is the art of applying the seat of the pants to the seat of the chair.” I remember being told this was Alexander Pope at some point in my career, but the internet says it was uttered by Mary Heaton Vosse, who is only remembered today for very apt quotations, it seems.
