Book Review: Getting Things Done

Book Author: David Allen

I read this book almost a decade ago and it was life changing. Getting one trusted system to have all the todos, ideas, and other thoughts cluttering up your mind out of your head will take you to a whole nother level of productivity.

The point of the system is to close open loops so you can laser focus on cranking tasks but more importantly have the clarity and perspective to prioritize your work.

I get more done in most days than most people get done in a week. I layered this in with my journal to form a hybrid system that I review monthly, quarterly, and yearly.

If more people read this book it’d make me sweat! That’d be a good thing!
