I’ve been following the GTD/Getting Things Done methodology for many years, and I’ve had the opportunity to talk with author David Allen on many occasions. Here are some of the things I’ve learned from David that aren’t in the book.
- The GTD method provides a clear step-by-step process for better time management.
- Many people wrongly assume GTD takes too much time to maintain.
- Forgetting to record tasks wastes more time than maintaining the GTD system.
- Flexibility is key—GTD should fit your style, not control it.
- David Allen himself encourages people to experiment and adapt the GTD method.
- GTD is not a strict rulebook but a productivity system designed to reduce stress and boost focus.
GTD, Getting Things Done, David Allen, productivity system, time management, personal organization, task management, productivity tips, GTD method, focus and efficiency, workflow management, productivity habits, self-improvement, productivity coach, how to get organized
