Getting Things Done B

David Allen Β· 2015
82/100
πŸ‘ Worth It

GTD is one of the few productivity systems that has genuinely stood the test of time, and the 2015 revision earns its place by shedding tool-specific clutter and adding a substantive chapter grounding the method in cognitive science. Existing GTD practitioners will not find a dramatic transformation here, but anyone new to the system gets the cleanest, most durable version of the framework. It earns its reputation.
