Jul 15, 2008 - I saw this video 3 weeks ago. I picked up his book recently and gotta say I agree when he mentions that calendar programs and other utilities attempt to organize your priorities but rather further can complicate your focus on what you need to do and how to do it. Therefore I want to ask here to anyone that reads this, what I should do instead? I have to do notes, calendar, notebooks, mail all w/ google and though its nice to have it all in one spot, it hasn't made me super productive? Panda

Jul 26, 2008 - This is amazing and confusing: I dislike this talk about as much as I love the GTD CD series by the same speaker. The CD series was enlightening, full of good tricks and ideas, and I went through it several times. This talk on the other hand I find pretty boring. A clown show more than anything else.

Aug 3, 2008 - I've actually began implementing my organization online with iGoogle. It has all I need and accesible from any computer I'm at. Only problem is that its online. But no big deal, I'd rather have it there than on pen/paper. Also, as for brainstorming and note I have a drawing board in my room for ideas and such. I'm still on the book, reading it slowly but am enjoying it.

Aug 6, 2008 - I've spent lots of time going thru many GTD apps and configurations. my current iteration is worthy of this post. I use Mail.app with mailtags, iCal, Omnifocus and Journler. I can create todos from anywhere and it will sync everywhere. there's some complexity involved, but once it's all under the hood, the driving is smooth and simple. worth the effort!!! journler I use for notes and reference and such. I have circusponies NOTEBOOK, but it's too much for GTD, I use it for formal projects

Sep 24, 2008 - David, you speak tooo damn fast. I could not even catch up with your Audio Book and have to pause this video often to catch up. I had to switch back to the Book that I bought. How about considering the international audiances as well for your material before you create something in this area.

Sep 29, 2008 - So GTD's fundemental message is do your job and don't screw about. The guy is a genius, I bow down at his feet.

Leafgreen2 Says:

Sep 30, 2008 - sorry I did not get a lot out of this. A lot of time for a few actionable methods. Much prefer Robins, Covey, Tolle, Sutphen, et al.

Oct 10, 2008 - GTD is very a useful set of theorys. This vidoe doesnt do it justice. Read the book

racl101 Says:

Oct 28, 2008 - GIT-R-DUN!

racl101 Says:

Oct 28, 2008 - Get a regular book then. Sorry, but I'd hate to hear a guy utter two words per minute. He can't please all audiences.

Nov 6, 2008 - Like all concepts & ideas of great value...the real work comes after the thought, the gap between knowing & doing. Very useful video, now get to work. lgh2

Nov 22, 2008 - GTD - Is by the far, THE most useful tool in self development I have ever come across, after years of reading self help. In the same way pen and paper is tool, so is GTD. What you do with it & how you use it to express yourself where the excitement begins.
