Organize IT Recap: Investing, Writing Binding Contracts

May 23rd 2008   Recap   1 comment

Organize IT recap for 23rd May 2008.

  • I’ve just found out Organize IT had been accepted into the 9rules Network This is great news as I will now be sharing company with other top productivity blogs like Evomend, Unclutterer and Dumb Little Man.
  • Investing and procrastination shouldn’t really go together, right? Well Newsweek has… news for you. Companies such as Starbucks and eBay encourage procrastination in the workplace (ever nipped out for a quick coffee break to get away from it all?) so it makes some sense that with procrastination on the rise, you should invest in those companies.
  • I got an email a few days ago telling me about a new search engine designed for productivity fans (Linux and command line fans will probably like it too). It can be used exclusively with the keyboard by inputting special commands (”g” for Google, “w” for Wikipedia). I’ve not really used it, but it seems like a neat idea worthy of mentioning.
  • Cultivate Greatness suggests writing a binding contract with yourself for the life of your dreams. It’s a brilliant idea that I’ve been meaning to touch on for some time now. Many people have problems keeping promises with themselves and writing a contract may go some way to focusing us.

Thanks for reading!
