Getting Things Done - How do you manage your life?

Clint Muzzy

Hello all, 

I pride myself on my level of personal organization (as I'm sure many you do as well). It's how I maintain a strenuous day job in commercial construction mgt, my real estate side hustle, a long distance girlfriend, a busy travel schedule, and still get a good night of rest.

Here's an outline of my principles/tools

Influences: 

Getting Things Done by David Allen

Procrastinate on Purpose by Rory Vaden

Deep Work by Calvin Newport (probably one of the best books I've ever read)

Energy Management before Time Management (nutrition, rest, movement)

Tools: 

Bullet Journal (this is new to my system & I love it- I'm a pen & paper kind of guy)

Google Reminders (whenever one of my trusted systems aren't present)

Google Inbox (vs. Gmail. For those of you who don't know inbox... it is much different)

General reference filing/binders

Google docs (I use this heavily for personal reference & collaborating with my business partner who's a few states away)

Tickler file system (coming soon...)

I was curious what other people out there use to organize their lives? What systems/tools? What are your influences? What books do you recommend?
