TriggerList.tex - A Getting Things Done stress reducing exercise
========================================================================
## The Point
TriggerList is derived from [The 43 Folders Trigger
List](http://wiki.43folders.com/index.php/Trigger_List). If you're
not familiar with a Trigger List, the idea is simple: this is all the
spheres of your life, in general, that you care about. If you're
stressed out and not sure what to do next, print this out, and line by
line either scratch off or annotate what you need to do next.
## Compiling
This is mostly written for xelatex. So:
$ xelatex TriggerList.tex
## Contributors
Typesetting by [Elf Sternberg](http://elfsternberg.com), who is still
old-school.
Original list from David Allen's amazing book "Getting Things Done,"
typos repaired by Joe Rodgers and Merlin Mann.
