  • Reflect on GTD and getting to the top of the colorful list above for a minuteHow can the GTD process help you tame the crazy-busy dragon of modern life?

The GTD systems give you a clear vision of what you have ahead for you to do it, not just do whatever you have on your mind.

The GTD system is like a game system. It organize your “skills” so instead of just using whatever you think of to fight with the dragon, you have a list of every skill you know you will be able to chose the board and use it to fight.

  • My mind is kind of full of thoughts about a story I just finish, and I can’t get that out of my head. When I was walking I just let every thought rage on in my head and nothing stop it instead of in my house I get stop every 5 min to do something. My mind was much clearer.

OPTIONAL EXERCISE – Read the article and go for another walk 🙂
