The Personal Productivity Show #006
The Personal Productivity Show #006 (MP3 - 18MB - 50min)
Nick Duffill is one of the principals of Gyronix, a UK based company that produces a plug-in application that brings together the power of MindManager, with the focus of a productivity methodology like Getting Things Done.
Cameron and I interviewed Nick for Episode #006 of the Personal Productivity Show podcast. During our discussion, we talked about ResultsManager, and the ideas that gave rise to it, along with its basic precept of extending the power of mindmapping from an approach for brainstorming to one that facilitates organising.
Nick gave some insights into his own productivity approach, which refreshingly focused not on tools and technology, but on the process itself.
Perhaps the most important aspects was the discussion on using the ResultsManager tool, and how to fast track its implementation.
We hope you enjoy episode #006, and look forward to feedback and suggestions.

I’ve been listening to your Podcast Productivity shows and have been enjoying them. However, I believe there are many creative types who get wigged out by the anal retentive nature of GTD and are looking for a more organic, less robotic way or being more productive. I would like to suggest Barbara Sher as a potential guest on your Podcast. You can read more about her here:

Her no non-sense approach to time management and goal setting (best described in Wishcraft – her flagship book) is a breath of fresh a

p.s. I do not know or have met B. Sher. However I’ve read Covey, Allen and Sher, have tried all of their systems to one degree or another, and have found Sher’s approach to be very doable, organic and addresses many of the issues i.e. falling off the horse, that you’ve asked your guests.
