Goodreads asked Kourosh Dini:

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?

Kourosh Dini Creating Flow with OmniFocus began as a small series of blog posts about how I use Omnifocus for a series of workflows. The posts became very popular.

I thought it would be useful to write a PDF to take a user completely unfamiliar with the program through a gradual path up to an advanced skill. It seemed at the time that it would amount to, perhaps, a 50 page PDF. However, it grew to become over 500.

The resulting text became popular in its own right.

Afterwards, I became interested in the ideas of workflow in general. There is, after all, much more to enjoying work and developing mastery than task management. Those ideas eventually became Workflow: Beyond Productivity and later, Workflow Mastery: Building from the Basics.

Now, several years after the first publication of Creating Flow with OmniFocus, I return to re-write it not only based on the update to the program itself, but also with ideas developed in Workflow Mastery.
