Getting Things Done methodology is a great thing, especially the "Am I the right person to do it" part. What's the most amazing is how many things get done on their own if you follow it. One such thing happened yesterday. I had on my TODO list since like forever writing something on the Polish Wikipedia on Pluto's controversy as a planet. I mean - we can all see it's totally lame and it shouldn't be one.
So let's do some GTD on it:
- Would it take less than 2 minutes ? Well, not really - documenting the controversy would take at least an hour or two.
- Am I the right person to do it ? Oh yeah, why should I be doing it - wouldn't it be better to make IAU make Pluto not-a-planet instead, so I don't have to do any work ?
And it worked - I made IAU demote Pluto by sheer willpower, and I don't have to write anything about it now :-D
Now, let's delegate the "Free elections in
Belarus" item ...
