“Making It All Work”
I’ve spent a good part of this past weekend reading David Allen’s latest book, Making It All Work. David is the bestselling author of Getting Things Done (GTD) and the related GTD Outlook Add-in, which I’ve been using for a few years now. Once in a while I make the mistake of trying another system of organization and task management, and I always go back to GTD. I like David’s five-step work flow model: Collect, Process, Organize, Review and Do, and I really appreciate the Add-in that allows me to manage all aspects of that model through Outlook. His newest book addresses (in depth) project planning and management, elimination of distractions (is this really possible?), and gaining focus, control, and perspective. If you haven’t read Getting Things Done, do and then read Making It All Work. If you’d like to learn more about this productivity system, check out the GTD web site.
