What is the difference between generic productivity systems that lack context versus a personal system with feedback loops?

Aristotle, the ancient Greek philosopher: we become brave by pretending and practising being brave. Likewise, learn to be productive by asking yourself what a productive person would do. Problem with applying other people’s systems is that everyone has a different context. Things like GTD assume that you work in an office and are just doing ‘stuff’. Teachers are doing more important things than that. Feedback loops important as context can change – e.g. different class, new Ofsted system, move house, start a family. Your system needs to be emergent and adaptable. Never say that you do something because it’s always been done (or you’ve always done it) that way. Question everything.
