Temproact is an efficient, easy to use, proactive Personal Information Manager

Temproact is an efficient, easy to use and proactive Personal Information Manager. Temproact is also a supportive tool, a kind of coach helping you to improve your skills in the area of self-management.

Temproact is a software tool and also a method about organizing our activities.

Temproact is based on following assumptions:
· We are living in a rapid changing world.
· Rigid control / planning of our lives may lead to missing opportunities.
· We need a flexible way of controlling our lives through goals.
· According to new circumstances these goals may be modified.
· Events are resources we can exploit to achieve our goals.
· Our space-time is limited. It excludes simultaneity and ubiquity. We have to make choices. Accepting a deadline for an action is done at the expense of other deadlines.
· We need a virtual space outside space-time where we can put ideas of actions without the obligation to execute them.
· Keeping these virtual actions outside space-time reduces our sensation of overload with work.
· Moving virtual actions into space-time is the decisive step in managing our lives. Once there they turn real and will not leave us until their executions.

To-do lists are counterproductive because:
· Tasks are formulated without the perspective of projects and goals
· All actions are considered to be real and thus already activate our inner resources on an unconscious level
· They are displayed simultaneously. It is then difficult to focus on one task at the time.
· We are best performing in the state of flow that mental state of operation in which we are fully immersed in what we are doing, characterized by a feeling of energized focus, full involvement, and success in the process of the activity.

All these assumptions lead to four main functions of TEMPROACT :
· The virtual space which replaces the to-do list. Its purpose is to enter and sort ideas of actions before they turn real.
· Project management which replaces shortsighted task management.
· Automatic scheduling of one's projects to take into account the ever changing working conditions. One mouse click to update all projects.
· Interconnection of all resources in order to have them at one's fingertips while achieving one action. It is the condition to remain immersed in the state of flow.

Limitations:

· 15-days trial
