A system first published by author David Allen in the book, “Getting Things Done”
He provides a system for moving things from a pile of “not done” to “done” in some way
GTD has a formal process, but has been adopted by many and adjusted to suit their needs. (like I am doing here)

Every productive person has a similar approach, the
terminology and order just differ.

Create a System of Tracking Tasks

A Filing system of some sort
Assign Order/Priority
Make it easy to sort through an “in box”
Using Technology (rules and filters)

Technology Example - Mail Rules
• Create mail boxes as granular as possible
• Create rules to assign incoming email to the proper box or boxes
• Each mail ideally goes to only one mailbox
• Work from your in box

Define TasksTake time to create an outline or rough design of the solution steps
Assign a level of effort
Can it be ignored? Create a backlog
Backlog items can remain for years
Decide on a priority

Schedule Work
Have a plan or a list
Have a simple process for working the list
Allow for ad hoc, emergencies, adds and deletes
Set goals and keep score

Productive vs BusyThe goal is tasks, not spending time
Ask yourself, “Is this providing value?”
Productive always has a goal, can be completed or measured
If you are counting minutes you are busy, not productive
![Page 13: Getting Things Done - Develpreneur · in the book, “Getting Things Done” He provides a system for moving things from a pile of “not done” to “done” in some way GTD has](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062402/5fb3a92cce03a5157373932a/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
When you are productive time will fly by. You are
“in the zone”
![Page 14: Getting Things Done - Develpreneur · in the book, “Getting Things Done” He provides a system for moving things from a pile of “not done” to “done” in some way GTD has](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062402/5fb3a92cce03a5157373932a/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Avoid Lingering
Know when your task is complete
Assess it as complete and move on
Save your victory laps and breaks for later
Understand the difference between Complete and Perfection

Easy Transition
Have a queue of tasks
As you complete a task you should be able to transition easily to the next one
Adjust Your Queue Accordingly
