# Orgmode - your life in plain text
Rainer König
-This is a talk about Orgmode, my favorite Emacs application. The goal
-is to show you the power of Emacs when you want to manage and organize
-your life. Orgmode is your swiss army knife for that job, and so far
-the only tool that you can customize for your needs and you need to
-customize yourself to fit the restrictions of a "ToDo list tool".
+In this talk I'll give you a quick overview of my Orgmode GTD
+system. We start with capturing a small project, scheduling
+the tasks, doing all and then archiving the finished tasks.
+
+To stay on focus, every morning I build a plan for the day
+with the 3 most important tasks first and then some other
+stuff that should be done. In this way I avoid getting
+pulled down by an endless agenda view that I can't finish on
+that day anyway.
