Hmm.. Any chance of quitting and coming back after a month with a clean
slate?
It sounds to me that the issue lies further up stream versus your GTD
system.

Before I stumbled on to  GTD [in reading a book called "Dreaming in Code"] ,
I use to use make up these to do lists.  It seems like wound up getting
myself stressed and frustrated and goals not accomplished.

I'm  consider myself a GTD work in progress.  My computer inbox are
basically allways empty, but my office and home desk need to be worked
on.    I feel your pain.
10 weeks behind?  Why is that? Do you have too much going on, unforeseen
one-time events, are you a perfectionist, or sub-consciously just don't want
to do it.

I basically have my life goals on my thumb drive.  I've been a bit
overwhelmed lately by the some by the size of my next action list so, I've
been defering some of my someday projects and on things that I don't want to
defer I try to figure out which are more important for me to get done and I
add a waiting step on the less important project that I makes me focus on
the more important project.. Stupid, but it works for me.  I'm not sure
that's a solution for you.

Just out of curiousity, have you read David Allens book Getting things
Done?  A lot of good ideas in there
