How You Apply MT at Home and/or Other Casts on Home Life Management

Submitted by Presley Reader

All,

My wife (aka the manager of our household, which includes two kids) LOVES MT, and she (and I) would love to hear if/how you've applied some of the excellent MT practices in your own home/family...successfully or unsuccessfully.

Another question is whether you know of any other casts out there that are similar to MT in format and quality but deal with personal management issues, i.e. home management, time management, errand management, activity management, etc.

Thanks!

I'll have to check out those GTD-related podcasts - Thanks, Adam.  In response to the original post, if you haven't picked up a copy of Getting Things Done, I would highly recommend it.  It's an easily accessible book with a system that makes a lot of sense and can help significantly improve the organization of any home or work environment.  My office is much more organized as a result, and I no longer worry about those nagging to-do's when something crosses my mind. 
Best of luck,
Mike

1st and great the use of "and" ipo "but" in many occasions, it works.
2nd about Disc: reducing the gap in communicating with your spouse.
3rd with kids: use of systemic feedback positive and negative to encourage effective behaviour.
Else not from MT: understanding man and women difference by emotional intelligence (Daniel Goleman).
So long.
Joe.

Adam, Mike, Joe, Sue, John,
Thanks so much for taking the time to respond. We really are grateful for your insights and will, in true MT fashion, get right to application.
Other comments/thoughts are still welcome, of course.
