Feb 5, 2022 · Hi everyone, After doing GTD for 4 months, I noticed that the only way I manage to do the weekly review consistently is when I don't take too long.

Sep 11, 2024 · The key to doing GTD is... doing. At least for me. David Allen wrote in Getting Things Done that the book was full of things best experienced as experiences. When I started getting the hang of that, GTD became an ally rather than an obstacle. This is why I keep enthusing about The Getting Things Done Workbook. It was a game changer for me.

Sep 18, 2024 · I don’t generally put in place a link, but sometimes do. I also use Apple Notes and 1Password for specialized note types. Things links well to email, so I generally don’t move email to a notes app. In all, having Things as a central hub works well, is fast, and handles both simple and complicated projects without fuss.
