Organized Productivity Widget

Recently I wrote about tips to increase your productivity by applying some “Getting Things Done” strategies and I suggested To Do for managing your tasks from inside OS X’s Dashboard.
Today I found another tools that might do the trick even better.

Getting Things Done - for real

Getting Things Done. The Art of Stress-Free ProductivityMany of you will know David Allen’s famous book “Getting Things Done – The Art of Stress-Free Productivity”. It discusses a number of techniques that should help you to stay focused on your work and avoid being sucked into mental clutter and physical chaos.
Many of his tips are plain simple, but you have to adopt them into your daily working habits nonetheless. This is where the trouble begins.

Widget: Minutes

There are some widgets that are plain simple and super-useful. Minutes is one of them.

Minutes is a nifty countdown timer that alerts you at a specific time (e.g. 18:31) or after some period of time has passed (alert me in 7 minutes).
