A while ago now it has always been the case with me that everytime something came up that I would put it to one side and always say that “Yes I will do it someday” and then there would be a frantic rush as to get things done and stress starts to build in order to get these things done. That is until I have followed the process of Getting Things Done or simply known as GTD. To me GTD is simply a system that works on the premise that when we depend on our minds to get things done (which most of us do) then we fall into turmoil in terms of completing tasks. Likewise if we depend on a system that is flawed, then the mind starts to depend on itself and that does not help at all.
And this is where GTD fits in. David Allen the creator of the gtd system created this system to help well get things done.
GTD is a system that allows you to record and process your tasks and organize everything so that you can ease the mind so that it does not have to remember it.
This is in turn allows you to focus on getting the job done instead of remembering what to do next.
I have been using GTD for a long while now. Sometimes I do find that I deviate from using GTD but when I get back into the groove of things, I find that I become more productive as I am focusing on the things that make an impact to what is going on.
