#MICROSOFT OUTLOOK QUICK STEPS DEPLOY UPDATE#
I will update this document from time to time accordingly.įrom a simplicity point of view, as you will find below, I have tried to automate as much as possible and make this system as quick as possible to work with.
#MICROSOFT OUTLOOK QUICK STEPS DEPLOY SOFTWARE#
My system is predominantly based on Outlook Desktop for Windows and at the time of writing I am using Microsoft Outlook for Microsoft 365 v2005 Office Insider edition.Īlso, it’s worth noting that my workflow changes from time to time and gets tweaked as software gets updated and changed or I simply have better ideas. Whist I refer to GTD above, I would like to stress that this is simply my own process and is not attempting to be a strict following of Allen’s workflows. In my view, Inbox Zero is the process of applying GTD to an inbox. Mann has stated that, the zero is not a reference to the number of messages in an inbox it is “the amount of time an employee’s brain is in his inbox.” The term was coined by Merlin Mann and much has been written about keeping your inbox empty. The other ideal that I have strived towards is Inbox Zero. The general principals are the same between editions. It is that edition that I attempt to follow and will refer to. The current GTD workflow consists of five stages: capture, clarify, organize, reflect, and engage. The first edition from 2001, and my copy of the book, lists the stages as collect, process, organise, review, and do. Your mind is for having ideas, not holding them. This allows attention to be focused on acting on tasks, instead of remembering them. The GTD method rests on the idea of moving tasks out of the mind by recording them in a trusted system. The primary philosophy behind my email processing system is based upon David Allen’s Getting Things Done (GTD). I subsequently decided to document my personal system as it may be of help to others. Recently I was asked to assist a colleague with her email management and took her through my system and helped her with her own set-up.
