Topic “gtd”

I’ve been a big fan of the book Getting Things Done for a few years now and it’s great to see the rise in popularity of this book and it’s concepts, especially in dedicated GTD sites like 43 Folders and dedicate apps like OmniFocus.

If you don’t know what GTD is or about, I recommend watching this video of David Allen talking at Google about GTD. It’s a great refresher or introduction.

Recently I stumbled upon a book that has literally redefined my views on productivity and organization. I mean I’m a superbly organized guy, sometimes even too much. But there was always something lacking, if I was so organized and always on top of things, why was I always worrying about what to do next and this and that? Hmm, something wasn’t completely right. I never realized this was a problem till I read Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity written by David Allen.

What an absolutely fantastic book! Really, so good in fact, that I’ve read it 1.67 times (the first 2/3 twice, yes it is really that good).
