True, my best ideas came to me while driving or doing some mindless activity that gave my brain a pause, take the activity out of that equation and you clear a channel that you can use for any purpose. Your alone time is a time in which your brain connects to the world you're missing on daily basis, your world.

The same happens when you: 1. visit the toilet for No. 2. If you're in shape, thoughts might come to you while you're running (when you're not in shape, you focus in staying alive) and my personal favorite 3. When you're driving, autopilot triggers everything buried in your subconscious.

I also walk during phone calls, walking works better for me because I sort of feel the progress when I move. I think it's a trait all ADD/ADHD's share. We're also better at convincing :) http://iqtell.com/

FYI, there's an app called IQTELL who helps you do that http://iqtell.com/

You can connect Evernote to your emails, calendars, to do lists, projects and more on IQTELL's app. The app allows you to use Evernote functionality and connect it to all existing IQTELL features.

Deadlines are meant to be broken because they're unrealistic. That being said, setting unrealistic targets is usually what produces great results, it triggers ingenuity and pumps drive.

The only reason you're not happy is because you do not believe in yourself as you should. http://iqtell.com/2013/01/believe-in-yourself-like-muhammad-ali/

“The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast: the chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'.”

If it ain't broken... :)

If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.“ Steve Jobs.

The biggest margins are created by dropping behaviors or habits entirely. If you'll stop gaming you'll easily free 1-3 hours each day...The same goes for browsing while with family or friends. We all have those habits http://iqtell.com/2013/01/keep-dopamine-under-control-and-reach-your-targets-part-1/

Impressive, I really like how you arranged this...but today you don't need to disconnect, most of your info is probably stored somewhere on the cloud (Gmail doesn't count for this purpose) and to process your email probably you'll need access to those files (assuming you have real work to do and not just to answer…

I agree that you need to start with small victories

Quality should be assured by specialist apps, I agree on that one. But I don't agree that one app shouldn't aggregate everything in one place. We started developing IQTELL because we wanted to stop the jump between services.

I think the future of productivity is having a consolidated and structured environment. A key message in Getting Productive (especially for beginners who may be overwhelmed with the number of apps) is managing yours apps effectively. Many of us juggle emails, calendars, Evernote, to-do list, Dropbox, Google Drive. …

I've had the same experience but also with apps. I often find myself trying and using so many different apps throughout the year. The end of the year is an ideal time to go through your app list to widdle them down, ultimately trying to consolidate everything. It's cliche but we should spend more time doing rather…

This is a great immediate solution for people who don't have planning skills. Following through is a skill you need to develop over time and like any skill, you need to start small.

Someone needs to invite him to IQTELL's Beta :)

Sounds good...You can't argue with Andreessen, most people won't even get passed the 1.

It's all about creating a workflow that doesn't require wondering around, a workflow that focuses on the fastest lane to complete your task.
