      That way, you're continually improving your process, painlessly, without having to interrupt much of your present workflow or take anything new by storm.
    • methods work well within the practice of Kaizen. Kaizen would be the overall strategy, and GTD a collection of tactics for process improvement. To apply GTD in a Kaizen way, you might choose a few related ideas from GTD that will help you immediately in areas where you need the most work. Then you'd implement one tactic every week for a month. You'd work on that one tactic-- 43 folders, say-- for a week, consciously using it and thinking about it. After a week, you'd have it down to the point where you don't have to think about it anymore. The next week, you'd move on to the next device while continuing to use the one you just mastered.

  • Japanese management strategy called Kaizen roughly translates to "continuous slow improvement." In the corporate world, it's an efficiency and defect-proofing system often used on factory floors. But Kaizen emphasizes the well-being of the employee, working smarter, not harder and developing best practices so that workers don't have to think. As such, Kaizen is an ideal approach to improve one's personal workflow.

  • Standardization is another Kaizen principle. With standardization, you think about what "best practices" are, and you do so in advance. Then you externalize those best practices as much as possible, and you work those practices so that they become automatic.

    Kaizen also focuses on eliminating waste.

  • • 
      You want to externalize thinking and book-keeping as much as possible, and you also want them to happen "for free" as much as possible, or as artifacts of other tasks. You also want to build in error-proofing as much as possible.
