David Allen, auteur de Getting Things Done, a annoncé récemment sur le site de sa société la publication prochaine d’un nouveau livre baptisé “Making It All Work : Winning at the Game of Work and Business of Life”.
Ce sera la suite logique de Getting Things Done. Mais là où le premier opus se cantonnait surtout [...]
Anti-Anti-Hacks [The 4-Hour Workweek Journal]
There are hacks, and there are anti-hacks. Both have their merit. I think this blog has been a mixture of both almost since the beginning. I like certain things about Getting Things Done ("GTD"), and yet I detest productivity for productivity’s sake. After all, it was the book The 4-Hour Workweek by Timothy Ferriss that [...]
Getting Things Done on Vacation [Did I Get Things Done? - Getting Things Done GTD with Personal Development and Motivation for Success]
I go on Holiday tomorrow!
2 weeks in the sun (hopefully) visiting the Algarve in Portugal. It is a well deserved break as I have been working flat out over the past few months and it is one of those vacations that just jump up at you last minute.

GTD: identifying your contexts [eDragonu - the choice of a personal path]
One of the key factors for a good GTD implementation is the context management. There are many key factors, I agree, but context management is one of them. As you may already know, one of the basic concepts of GTD is to spread your actions over all the contexts you are acting in. You are [...]
Number 1 Productivity Practice [The 4-Hour Workweek Journal]
You may have noticed that I have been missing in action for a couple weeks. The culprit behind this absence? Multiple projects and an ongoing problem with perfectionism. With respect to the projects, I am working on two major activities at work, one of which is completely new, uncharted territory with the requisite, and inefficient, [...]
Start GTD with a mind sweep [Hack Your Day]
When people start out with GTD I think they get overwhelmed because they’re expected to go from no, or unproductive organization to writing everything down, categorizing and dealing with stuff. A method I read about on Stuff for Getting Things Done is very much like what I first did when GTD hit me.

Comfort or productivity? [Hack Your Day]
In many cases in my own life I find that I am either productive or comfortable. By this I don’t mean that I have to sleep on the floor after a productive day, what I mean is that many times you need to trade your personal freedom to work productively according to GTD and other [...]
