How do I go from poorly organized to executive level organized?

4 pointsby chuieabout 7 years ago
The most sophisticated I am with my organization is I follow a Google calendar that I am pretty good at keeping up to date, but I am struggling to stay on top of every ball up in the air. Are there any tips/apps/services you'd recommend to help me next level my organization skills?

Not really about organizational skills but I really liked the book First Things First by Covey. Its 20 years old but still very relevant.<p>Often the problem is not that you aren&#x27;t organized enough - its that you&#x27;re working on the wrong things. You should be working on long term payoffs, and say no or delegate&#x2F;automate trivial busywork that often gets in the way.

I loved the book &quot;Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity&quot; - the system is pretty simple and gives you a great framework for not only organizing all your projects and tasks but also helps with prioritization.

GTD and a trello board works for me (when I have the discipline to keep it up to date)<p>I&#x27;ve used this guide (<a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;hamberg.no&#x2F;gtd&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;hamberg.no&#x2F;gtd&#x2F;</a>) to start and really didn&#x27;t need anything else

org-mode: once you learn the basics it’s quick to add new tasks, quick to change the timeline, and easy to add recurring tasks. You won’t outgrow it: there is a lot of flexibility for adopting to more complex workflows. The negative is that it has a bit of a learning curve.
