Wonderfully easy guide to utilizing David Allen's GTD system. A 15 minute summary of the book’s framework.
I had heard about this system before but this easy guide has made the framework seem quite intuitive. Enough for me to buy the book and try to incorporate into my current system. What intrigues me about this system is the ease factor. My current system is slightly more complex but I think incorporating more ease may help.
I like the idea of a full dump and having a folder called “some day maybe folder” for future ideas that are not urgent and then separating out the projects that need to be addressed.
