Editorial Reviews:

In today's world of exponentially increased communication and responsibility, yesterday's methods for staying on top just don't work.

Veteran management consultant and trainer David Allen recognizes that "time management" is useless the minute your schedule is interrupted; "setting priorities" isn't relevant when your email is down; "procrastination solutions" won't help if your goals aren't clear.

Allen's premise is simple: our ability to be productive is directly proportional to our ability to relax. Only when our minds are clear and our thoughts are organized can we achieve stress-free productivity and unleash our creative potential. He teaches us how to:

  • Apply the "do it, delegate it, defer it, drop it" rule to get your in-box empty
  • Reassess goals and stay focused in changing situations
  • 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 has the potential to transform the way you work -- and the way you experience work. At any level of implementation, David Allen's entertaining and thought-provoking advice shows you how to pick up the pace without wearing yourself down.

    Summary: A huge help
    Comment: I haven't quite finished it yet but I am using more and more of the lessons every day. Although I had used some components of the method, some I had picked up and some were intuitive to me. But I had never seen how it could all work together. I am getting a great deal of benefit in my business and personal life from it. The first time I emptied my "IN" basket, I lifted a great weight off my shoulders. I am now starting to feel I can juggle all the balls more effectively.

    Summary: Motivating for me - Slowly implementing
    Comment: This system is simpler than most I've tried and easy to understand. The blogger on SimpleDollar uses this system, and that's how I hear about it.
    In the book, the author talks about how Things To Do lists don't work and why. Makes a lot of sense.

    Summary: Transformational and Life-Changing
    Comment: I was in the middle of 14 hour workdays, 200 emails a day and an incredible amount of stress. Reading this book (required reading for management in my company), and implementing the system - got me to a 10 hour day and a clear email inbox at the end of every day and a whole lot less stress at work. Applying the system at home, has made my home paperwork and desk so tidy and organized. I feel a sense of control over life and work, and feel relaxed to really focus on whatever it is I want to focus on. A truly transformational and life-changing book.

    Summary: It's not a clutter problem
    Comment: I had a clutter problem - in general. So I got a book on clutter ("It's All Too Much" which is a good read btw). It worked! ...on everything except my relationship with papers. They are (soon to be 'were') everywhere: messing up my home office, the table where I eat, on the night stand, even on the floor. I mean, it looked like clutter so why didn't it work? Well, because my paper issue was some else entirely - an organization puzzle, not an extra-stuff puzzle.

    This is where David Allen's book really comes in handy. It's especially good for everyday people whose lives are getting more multifaceted and whose personal and/or professional projects are getting bigger. The logic is impeccable. And the tools ought to be adjusted to your style. Plus there are tons of GTD fan videos online that can help you modify and personalize what he suggests in the book. Papers begone! It's working for me. If you have a monster of an inbox, certainly give Getting Things Done a try.

    Summary: Wish I could give 10 stars
    Comment: This guy is the best. I "went dark" one long weekend to get his personal organization system implemented at home, it actually took longer, but it is totally do-able and you are going to want to do it YESTERDAY once you read the book. In fact, you won't get through the whole book, you will start once you have read halfway, but finish reading the book eventually because the last part is terrific too. Of all the books that claim to be life-changing, this one delivered on the promise. All the mundane stuff that bedeviled my mind for decades is now in the system and I can't begin to tell you how that has upped my game in every quarter of life.
