Status Updates From Getting Things Done for Tee...

Organize step 3 is all about putting things on maps

Actionable items go on calendar or next action list or project list

Non actionable items go in reference, or someday/maybe, or trash

The step 2 after capture is clarify and it is CRUCIAL because it involves thinking.

Question tree:
What is it, is it actionable?

Yes-
Next action? Note it.
What done done look like? (Project - eg. get drivers license or sign new syndication partner)

No-
Need later?
No - trash
Yes- reference, checklist, someday/maybe

Reading bits and pieces


Useful -> 1. Calendar review daily
2 -> next actionable item to do review
3 -> project list review

Steps to get there are 1. capture everything 2. Clarify what it is and whether it is actionable or not 3. Organize into calendar, next actions, projects
4. Review the three as mentioned in first list

This could be retitled as “GTD for the Budding Professional” -anyone with little to no professional experience. It is an easy read and a good starting place for organization, productivity, and stress management.

Někdy ale zase nastanou situace, kdy novou složitost doslova zoufale potřebujeme – v jakékoli formě. Ve své aktuální situaci se cítíme bez inspirace, dokonce třeba i znuděně, a máme pocit, že jsme více než připraveni na víc.

Někdy ale složitost přichází rychleji, než jsme schopni zvládnout. V takovéto situaci cítíme stres a úzkost

It's ironically taking a very long time to finish this book....

This book is in view point view. The narrative is about Tris and it plays through his eyes. Showing his own emotions and his conversation. It says his emotions and how he feels toward people. It shows what he is doing from his perspective

The book Getting Things Done for Teens by David Allen talks about the things that can make teens stress out and what they can do to manage their time. It has different graphs and charts about stress and the most common things that can make a person stress out and lose sleep. Over all this was an amazing book and even though the book is for teens, I think anyone could read this book.

I learned how to manage my schedule and some helpful tips to keep me engaged and use my time Wiseley. In the book it taught me that I can look at my location, time, and energy to decide what is the most important thing to do now. When I am at home I can do subjects like English math and social studies but when I am outside I can do film. This book taught me how and why I should focus on important goals.

Listening to this audiobook to see just how big of a loser my niece will think I am if I give this to her.

When you realize you have been doing the exact same thing the author says since quite a long time without actually reading the books because productivity youtubers talk about it all the time.
I can't thank notion enough for letting me fit the entire GTD system into one place. Ty Ty Ty Ty

Let's be honest, I didn't have the foundation I need to be an adult, so I might as well start here.

I've long been interested in GTD because I'm a person on the internet and it's extremely popular there, er, here. I've listened to the episode of By the Book about the book and remember the hosts describing the book as dry, long, redundant, and overly complex, so I picked this up because it seemed like it might get across the basics without falling into too many of those pitfalls. So far, so goodish.

Readable, actionable, and presents information concisely with elegant and clear graphics—better than David Allen’s “Getting Things Done” (GTD). I enjoy—not dread—reading it. Newbies: teen or not, read this book first. Past readers of GTD: read this; it’ll likely clarify concepts better than GTD.

Of course, once you are done, read GTD to delve further into the entirety of GTD’s system and philosophy.

Good refresher. Some of the graphics are more accessible than the graphics in the original book. Most teens who need this book would definitely also need an adult to coach them through it, introduce/model a few concepts at a time, and assist in LOTS of repetition to help the teens master it.

I'm reading this ostensibly for the kids, but since I'm currently feeling incredibly overwhelmed myself, I am, of course, hoping it will help me as well. I've already read GTD, and it was good, but when I'm overwhelmed it's hard to be sure it'll work. So here's hoping.
