In today's world, yesterday's methods just don't work. In Getting Things Done, veteran coach and management consultant David Allen shares the breakthrough methods for stress-free performance that he has introduced to tens of thousands of people across the country. Allen's premise is simple: our productivity is directly proportional to our ability to relax. Only when our minds are clear and our thoughts are organized can we achieve effective productivity and unleash our creative potential. In Getting Things Done Allen shows how to:

€ Apply the "do it, delegate it, defer it, drop it" rule to get your in-box to empty
€ Reassess goals and stay focused in changing situations
€ Plan projects as well as get them unstuck
€ Overcome feelings of confusion, anxiety, and being overwhelmed
€ Feel fine about what you're not doing

From core principles to proven tricks, Getting Things Done can transform the way you work, showing you how to pick up the pace without wearing yourself down.

5Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity  Aug 30, 2010
This book fills in the gaps that I have found missing in the past. It has a specific "how to" to implement the process into my life. Great book!

5Makes being on top of it all seem possible  Aug 25, 2010
David sets out a great system to really get your arms around all that is currently buzzing around in your head. Still it all requires discipline, unfortunately not something you can get from a book.

5Fantastic Resource  Aug 12, 2010
Other reviews have sung the praises of this book, so I'll just add that the key for me in accessing the material was actually throwing away the half that I didn't need. Allen's designed his system to have interlocking parts, but the basic ideas work well separately as well. His folder structure and the way he configures his lists is super helpful. His 10K, 20K etc. review plan and such, not so much. Great book, though, and I recommend it to everyone.

1For me an old book was much better.  Aug 07, 2010
Had some significant success in business and in my community. Felt I should do more. Never took a business class or read a business book. In 2003 Allen's book was my first on time management. I had no knowledge on the subject, however this had nothing new at all. His thoughts were all obvious.

For my first time I searched Amazon for the right book. From YOUR reviews I selected: [{ASIN:B000LNIG02 How to Get Control of Your Time and Your Life]], by Alan Lakein. He walked me through to decide where I should go and what to do. He took me through human nature. A simple approach with steps that felt natural. It was published in 1973, but it works. The sections I marked I will read again.

Over each of the last 7 years I read 70 more books than I normally had time for, work with a volunteer group and do more with my family. Good book for me.

Environmental Cleanup Coalition and The Gyre Cleanup Project would like to thank David for his amazing insight and concise way of expressing in print. This will dove tail nicely into our philosophy of getting the oceans cleaned up and restored back to optimal health. [...]
Our deepest gratitude,
Aloha Richard Sundance Owen
