Audiobook Summary of Getting Things Done by David Allen. Written and narrated by Dean Bokhari

You know that feeling you get when you know there's something you're forgetting to do - but you just can't remember what that something is? If you hate that feeling, then GTD is your fool-proof guide to preventing that from ever happening again. How? Simple: the Getting Things Done process/methodology is all about capturing and closing every single one of your "open loops" (the things you know you need to do but haven't captured in a planning system you trust).

Once you've done that, you've got a starting place to begin organizing and executing around every arena of your life. Powerful stuff. If you're ready to stop stressing and start accomplishing your goals, David Allen's Getting Things Done can help you create a simple, effective personal productivity system.

Crucial quote "Things rarely get stuck because of lack of time. They get stuck because the doing of them has not been defined." - David Allen, Getting Things Done Big Ideas:

  1. If your daily life is out of control, it's almost impossible to think strategically or plan effectively.
  2. Define what being "done" looks like.
  3. Mental work has five distinct phases: Collect, Process, Organize, Do, and Review.
  4. Get everything out of your head.
  5. Projects and Tasks are two different things: track them separately.
  6. Focus on the Next Action required to move forward.
  7. Use the 2-Minute Rule for small tasks.
  8. Use Reference and Someday/Maybe files for things that have no immediate next actions.
  9. Build a trusted system that helps you keep track of your commitments.
  10. Schedule non-negotiable time for a weekly review.
