I have fewer listeners now.  Where did you go? I removed the comments section from the last couple podcasts, and going forward, will not be asking for comments/input.  The intention of this podcast is to share what's been going on in my life during last week.  I always look for things/tools/best practices that I think will be useful for people and mention them in my podcast.   ASW number status - still waiting.  Maybe early November.   GTD Tip of the week - use a calendar (ideally one for everything -- work and life) and externalize your mind into it.  Use it to capture items for a day without a time.  Also, for a day with a specific time.  An idea is to also include a specific time for yourself -- self-care.   Because voice to text systems are not cheap, I came up with an idea...   General Aviation - working on building my index for reviewing the BFR (Biennial Flight Review) ASW Law and Ethics and the Tarasoff law. Spanish update - Pimsleur.  

Feedback request - possibly via Spotify GTD Agenda method - building an agenda; waiting-for's Renegotiating a commitment - dropped Spanish and ESRI GIS Courses Reviewing other items for Someday/Maybe ASW number status SOAP notes General Aviation update Law and Ethics course Additional ideas for learning Spanish Kanban at Toyota Yes...  I know these podcasts are getting longer, but I'm only doing once per week.  Hopefully, you're finding something useful to try out for yourself.
