Thanks for the link to the transcript – as a new listener who hasn’t read your books (yet) I appreciate having the text to refer back to. I listen to the podcast in the car, and often think “I’ve got to remember to look into that!”

Brilliant! I was recently lost in Systems stuckness. I had at one point a project, working in various ways in about 4-5 diff systems, excel, evernote, and a couple of new ones I would read about, online. It was ridiculous! I kept waiting to have someone outside of me, tell me which was the best to use, and I hesitated to go forward with any of them, not wanting to invest time in any in case it was the wrong one. In the end, I told myself, self? Go with Evernote. You know it, you use it for other things, learn how to work it better, and go with it. Put it on your phone, and that’s it. So I did. I cut and pasted the content from all the other systems and all systems go! Doesn’t mean I still don’t misplace things in Evernote, but thank goodness that unstuckness is overwith. I really identified with your podcast….will be sharing on social and thanks for putting it together.
