GTD: buffet and target brown sports

I don't like to eat a buffet, because every time I eat a buffet, I was always full. I went out a few steps and went hungry again. Taking a closer look, in fact, most of the time in the buffet is spent in the slide before the dish selection table. This is a problem caused by unclear goals. When the target is doing the "Brown Movement", it seems that you are working. In fact, all your efforts are spent in inaction, and these choices will be quickly overturned by another choice.

In real life, there are also many such "target browses", such as surfing the Internet, shopping, and watching TV without purpose. In such a process, the human mind cannot be fully concentrated due to the random rotation of the target. As a result, the result is very low. The method to prevent such "target Brown Movement" is to delay the target. First, record the current target and place it in the target collection basket. When you are idle, gradually check from the "target collection basket" and implement these goals step by step. From the implementation method, this is the simplest "GTD" process.

It is unrealistic to prohibit such a "target Brown Movement. Because the way people think about the problem is "non-linear jump", and people have a certain degree of curiosity and desire for knowledge, this also makes us encounter emergencies in reality to create new goals. If we rely entirely on our nature to live our lives, there will be many "target Browns" in our lives ". If the life is full of such "target Brown Movement", it will surely take a long time. But record the current target and postpone it to the future. In this way, you can live your life with a stable goal, without losing your personal interests and curiosity.

People are reluctant to record their targets in a timely manner, mainly because they are afraid of losing their current opportunities. However, from a big perspective, there are actually many opportunities, and only opportunities that are incapable of being grasped can be wasted. The goal of stability can always be achieved. When the goal is reached, opportunities can often be grasped. Therefore, we must be brave enough to face the opportunity of passage, and convert our current expectations into a stable and long-term goal, so that we can be steadfast and calm in our life.

After a period of GTD, there will be many existing goals that will gradually fade out of your expectations. For example, you want to watch a movie or gossip about a star. When you look at the target collection basket, some goals seem naive and ridiculous. I will easily draw out these goals, and I am glad that I have not wasted my time and energy on these useless goals.
