It can be a tricky spiral. I hope I can get motivated about making some changes and am able to stay on top of things! I've got a big vacation coming up, so that should recharge my batteries as well!

Though they are often linked very closely. You're a bit unmotivated and your productivity slips then you see the drop in productivity and you become even more unmotivated. This isn't always the case, but it can happen. It also works the other way as well. If you can keep yourself motivated then anything you apply out of Getting Things Done will be that much more beneficial.

I have a problem remembering to do things if they are not written down and I don't have a plan in place. So I've been working on making a list of things to do before I sit down at my computer. Otherwise, I get distracted way too easily. "let me check my e-mail, how is my team doing, where does this link go," etc. It's something I need to work on.

The ideas are good but you can probably get all the information you need from the various blog posts. It hasn't helped me much because my problem getting things done is more motivational than organizational. I just finished reading “Getting Things Done”.
