For me this *really* got in the way of adopting the work.

hmm...you'll have to expand on this more a bit. I just finished David Allen's "Ready for Anything" and just checked out his Advanced Workflow template. I was really glad to see he makes specific mention of "Describe in past tense" and I can't find the specific chapter now but was really happy he has since adopted the language of accomplishments since I took his workshop in 2003! (either that or I wasn't paying attention :)

Let me know how we can help - I think I've got a good mix of GTD, MC, and some of the communication curriculum principles in my OF implementation. Futher down the line, I look forward in incorporating the
Franklin-Covey compass idea (ie. roles) other community members seem to have success with!
