Re: Improve your focus with the new time tracking timer

Leslie Scott — Mon, 02 Sep 2013 13:02:07 -0000

Basically time tracking projects on the reluctance of the main tasks that has to be carried out for better business management. Main objective needs to be perfect.

Currently I am using quickbooks time tracking software from Replicon but as I have managed to do multiple business, I will definitely go with the timegt even. I believe that the better the management the better will be the business standard.

It would be cool to abstract the Java specific components and have it cross-compile as a web app able to use LocalStorage, Android app, iOS etc (maybe with mobile using PhoneGap Cordova)!
Or at least to see the security measures and so on for those that require that.

Hi, this has totally worked for me. I LOVE the two hour time limit, because actually, we could all probably do most of the stuff we need to do in a day in a couple of hours if we didn't waste time.

I have followed the Eishenhower methodology for years on paper. Quite cumbersome until I found Priority Matrix by Appfluence. This software works for iOS platform and I recommend it to anybody that wants to leave work a little bit earlier every day.

Would you mind adding these ideas also to http://getsatisfaction.com/... so we can track these and let you know as any of these is available?

Hi
I downloaded and testing the ver1.4.1 b10088 free version for some projects. This tool is very useful and really great.
As im a web designer, some works are repeated in my work. I tried to copy and paste(duplicate) a set pf project with its tasks, but it duplicated by the text entry. Its very useful if it copied/duplicated by as entered the source project/task. Just i need to duplicate the project with its tasks/tags into a new project. I could use it as a project template. And one more feature - just export a project list to a html file is appreciated. Thanks to this great product.

Starting from the last question - no, unimportant tasks should be never worked on. They are there simply to remind us that they are there and should not be worked on.

Regarding the 2nd matrix or some methodology to prioritize the in-the-box tasks -- not sure what's the best way there. Starting from some point natural ordering probably should be used so person applies an educated guess to order all important-urgent tasks logically.

What is important is that you will NOT move to important-nonurgent until important-urgent is clear or delegated.

After finishing important-nonurgent that's really all there is -- time for relaxation and dreaming big to fill up the first quadrant! :)

Having categorised tasks according to the matrix the text fails to set-out how we must treat the tasks in each quadrant and shows that the writer does not understand the matrix or perceive its logical flaws.
We infer that we should do the important / urgent tasks immediately unless there are so many that we must delegate one or more of them. We therefore need another, similar matrix to decide in what order we do the tasks and which we delegate.
The important / non-urgent we decide to do later, but we need another matrix so that when we complete the important / urgent tasks we do the important / non-urgent tasks in the right order or delegate.
The unimportant tasks seem to be separated into urgent and non-urgent but if they're unimportant why waste time categorising them? Do we plan to do unimportant tasks as this categorisation implies?

I'm with you, 100 %. It is not easy to focus on one thing, indeed. One has both internal and external interruptions. Most of the people seem to believe that interruptions are in our nature, when in fact are not.
To keep it short, there is a really helpfull technique that I have been using for a few months now, quite successfully.
You might find it interesting.

There is also a really simple and helpfull tool that supports the pomodoro technique.
I have found that combining it with TimeGT for GTD, is the most efficient toolset for me (for now).

We are working on it. The next release will use standard SSL port 443 and there will be preferences to configure proxy as well.
Stay tuned and thanx for the patience!

We still have the login issue though. The login URL is https://secure.timegt.com:8..., a non default port. Thus, most people at work won't be able to use the software, due to firewall restrictions. Hope this gets fixed next release.
