			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I thought I would follow up on your reading and Monica’s presentation of Chapter 13 from Nair &amp; Brody with a post about some the resources I mentioned in our discussion.  The following resources are in no particular order:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Getting-Things-Done-Stress-Free-Productivity/dp/0142000280">Getting Things Done</a> (GTD) &#8211; <a href="http://www.davidco.com/">David Allen</a>’s <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Getting-Things-Done-Stress-Free-Productivity/dp/0142000280">book</a> helps you to setup a workflow for handling all tasks and projects. A great number of resources have arisen on the internet around GTD.  Check out Merlin Mann&#8217;s <a href="http://www.43folders.com/2004/09/08/getting-started-with-getting-things-done/"><em>Getting Started with GTD</em></a> for more info.  I also like <a href="http://www.anabubula.com/node/37">these wallpapers to help you remember the workflow</a>.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.amazon.com/First-Things-Learn-Leave-Legacy/dp/0684802031/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/103-7075326-0278252?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1189707262&amp;sr=1-1">First Things First</a> &#8211; I find Steven Covey’s <a href="http://www.dmreview.com/editorial/dmreview/200407/200407_018_1.gif">Quadrant II time management</a> system to be very helpful in prioritizing projects and tasks.  I also like his use of the <a href="http://www.dailyblogtips.com/put-the-big-rocks-first/">pebbles and rocks illustration</a>.  The weekly planning format is also helpful.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>-<a href="http://zenhabits.net/">Zen Habits</a> -Leo Babauta&#8217;s blog is a great resource for tips on time/stress/life management.  Some of my favorite posts are:
