I just stumbled on this great blog post that directed me to some cool resources for getting my goals accomplished.
So I've provided the links below if anyone is interested.
This was the most interesting link. It has a very cool video on how to use Omnioutliner, which also happens to be pre-installed on my Mac. (I'm not sure if they make a Windows version). Omnioutliner is a great program for making to do lists, and I've provided screenshot above of what my To Do list looks like.

The previous link got me all jazzed up about my pre-installed Mac software so I looked up what my other Omni software does and found out that Omniplan is actually a very powerful project management software. But I a bummed that I will have to pay for a license to get the full use of their software. Oh well it might be worth it. They do offer a 1-day free trial so I have to get my self a little more organized so I can make the most of my 1-day trial and figure out if it really is for me.

I also love the Hipster PDA that was mentioned in the video from the first link. Here is where you can go to find out how to make your own. I'm already putting mine together ;-)

I've been dorking out on picking an organizational/GTD system for myself too! (Good thing to do now, @ the start of my new joby-job)
Right now I'm liking the Moleskine ones (yes, because I just love those books) but I also like the idea of one thing (rather than the hundreds of cards required under the hipster system).

Fun!
Thanks for the tip! And glad to see I'm not the only one dorking out over here ;-)
I like the moleskin links you sent. But I'm kinda weird in that I like the idea of having the loose sheets. I never seem to have the right notebook with me at the right time and I like the idea that I can bring it back together or reorganize it later. I'll have to report back when I actually start using this system ;-)
