Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity
In today's world, yesterday's methods just don't work. In Getting Things Done, veteran coach and management consultant David Allen shares the breakthrough methods for stress-free performance that he has introduced to tens of thousands of people across the country. Allen's premise is simple: our productivity is directly proportional to our ability to relax. Only when our minds are clear and our thoughts are organized can we achieve effective productivity and unleash our creative potential. In Getting Things Done Allen shows how to:
? Apply the "do it, delegate it, defer it, drop it" rule to get your in-box to empty
? Reassess goals and stay focused in changing situations
? Plan projects as well as get them unstuck
? Overcome feelings of confusion, anxiety, and being overwhelmed
? Feel fine about what you're not doing
From core principles to proven tricks, Getting Things Done can transform the way you work, showing you how to pick up the pace without wearing yourself down. more

In first flush of enthusiasm
Let's see how well I implement these ideas in the next month. For someone as disorganized and easily overwhelmed as myself (and, in all honesty, all too resistant to most input from others in this regard), I was surprisingly taken by the ideas of this book. All my life I have been told to "just...

Amazing Ideas and Methodology!
David Allen is the master of time management and his book "Getting Things Done" strikes out all other ideas and books that I have read. After reading just the first chapter, I had a significantly enhanced way of living. To be honest, almost all of us already KNOW the things brought forth in this...

Inspired me to get an in-box!
The title says it all--one of the best books I've read on organization and productivity. This isn't just a "how-to" book, David Allen explains WHY all the other methods I've tried never really worked for me. It wasn't me, it was the method! What a relief!

I didn't read it!
Bought it but it's sitting on my night stand. Maybe if it had a better cover or was in comic book format I'd appreciate it more. Dunno....;-D

Simple Strategies that Work
I found this to be a very useful book and I have been getting a lot done since reading it. The advice is basic but often the obvious is overlooked. I'm not one to follow complex systems so this really worked for me. My only criticism would be that the book is somewhat repetitive but maybe that...

Good management system
Allen's book, 'Getting things Done' is useful and entertaining. It includes a mind mapping system and decision making flowchart that are rather useful, though not unique. Personally, I prefer his book "ready for anything", as it has much of the same content but includes many additional techniques.

Great Book!
I have used other time management tools in the past and none of them have worked as well as GTD. GTD is a lifesaver. This book is great and has helped me de-clutter my life greatly.

I had real trouble with prioritizing my business day. I spent most of my day in tasks that didn't make me money - or that a small payoff in the end. This book helped me put things in perspective.The premise of the book is finding your priorities and then work on them at times you select. For...
