Our ability to focus effectively on the job and priorities at hand is too often challenged by the non-stop flood of required, but not necessarily urgent, input, decisions and actions with which we must deal with.
Getting Things Done is an systematic approach for transforming overwhelm and uncertainty into an integrated system of stress-free productivity.
GTD guides you in creating a trusted system – an “external brain” to manage your reminders, tasks and commitments. This external brain will help you win at the game of work and the business of life.
GTD gives you space to envision your future, being strategic, and staying focused on your next action.
“Your mind is for having ideas, not holding them.”® David Allen
Using a very straight-forward process of capturing all the ‘stuff’ in your life, organizing it all into lists and reviewing it frequently, GTD enables you to achieve more without feeling stressed. The goal is to spend less time doing the things you have to do, so you have more time for the things you want to do.
GTD has helped millions of people get busy inboxes to zero, manage multiple balls in the air with calm control, and find clear head space for creativity and innovation amidst the modern rush.
