<p>I&#39;m currently listening to <em>“Getting Things Done”</em> by David Allen.</p>

<p>This is a revised edition of the original and I find it even easier to relate to. It is also more than  ten years since I read  the original and I&#39;m realizing that I&#39;ve been further away from the ideas than I thought. I probably wouldn&#39;t have appreciated it so much however if I hadn&#39;t been experimenting so much the last &gt;10 years.</p>

<p>I&#39;m also reading the <em><a href="https://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~rja14/book.html">draft of the third edition of “Security Engineering”</a></em>by Ross Anderson.</p>

<p>The first chapters are freely available and – in my opinion  – probably very well worth reading if you work in a tech related position where your decisions in any way affects the product.</p>

<p>I also find myself reading <em>the Bible</em> more.</p>

<p>After all, life is short, and in the words of someone else: “[to be more effective] do more of what works.”</p>
