He’s known as the guru of productivity for good reason. Best-selling author David Allen knows how to get things done. In fact, his book on the same subject was a runaway best seller and has become the gold standard on how to get more out of your day without stressing yourself out. Because isn’t that what we all want? We want the secret sauce that will help us learn more, do more, and achieve more—without losing any more precious sleep.
David first wrote Getting Things Done in 2001—way before the smart phone and 24-hour connectivity made people’s busy lives even busier. He updated it in 2015 to reflect a new generation, culture and workplace. But even with massive changes in technology, the basics of how to approach professional and personal tasks remain the same. It just might not be what you think.
