Test Your GTD-IQ

Test Your GTD-IQ: "Quadrant: Visionary / Crazy-Maker

Interpreting Your Results

Your 'perspective' score was 3 and your 'control' score was 2. This means you have scored in the 'Visionary / Crazy-Maker' quadrant.

On the positive side, you are a Visionary - you have no shortage of ideas and inspiration. You're probably pretty good at setting goals, being creative, and focused on 'the most important thing.'

On the developmental side, you are a Crazy Maker. The challenge is that your ideas, projects, and commitments may be outstripping your ability to keep up with them. Along with the inspiration of what you're envisioning, there may be things falling through the cracks, details being missed, and a general sense of being overwhelmed. Other people in your life may have pointed out to you that you don't adequately consider constraints or limitations when making commitments. And that contributes to overloading those around you.

GTD can offer you a sane way of complimenting your strong perspective with improved control. You can use a systematic, but flexible approach to capture and consider all the commitments you want to make. This should help you get better traction bringing your ideas to life. And the efficiency you realize will help you avoid the title 'Crazy Maker' as you build a better track recor"
