## What Jamie wrote

I've been an [OmniFocus](https://www.omnigroup.com/omnifocus/) user since before it was released. It is the power user tool for GTD, and I tend to have a strong view that problems with task managers are more about the person than the tool. Switching task managers is probably one of the most costly things you can do, so I don't even allow myself to really explore other systems. Instead, I can read articles like this to get a flavor for what is out there. Even without exploring the tools you can learn from how other people setup their systems. At the end though Travers states:
