His issue is with GTD as a complete approach, and I very much agree with him. > Though I still appreciate some of GTD’s principles (next action, desired outcome as project, brain dumping, etc) Maybe I'm wrong, and there is no way we can read each other's minds, but what if a system like GTD, maybe not even specifically GTD itself, was also fundamental enough to work for anyone? The way David Allen presents the system, which can be in a very elitist tone sometimes, is that GTD is all about doing what we already do as people, but in a differently-ordered way.Īs for addressing that creativity can be scheduled in 2 hour chunks, I was not correct in making that flaky statement and you are right to make a point of it. And many others knew it in their hearts that they could not learn how to.

For thousands of years, before science, I think many teachers of meditation knew in their hearts that anyone could learn how to meditate. But we know that meditation works for everyone because we have studied it enough to see how it is fundamental to the way every humans' mind-body operates.
What I mean to say is that meditation works for everyone, even though there are many people who have tried it and concluded that it does not work for them. It isn't always right.ītilly I did not mean to fight you, I am sorry for coming off in a manor. But don't make the mistake of trying to convert everyone else to it. That said, GTD is life-changing for many people. GTD's focus on breaking things into simple tasks whose execution is routine is the antithesis of how work needs to be organized for a maker. As Paul Graham describes in, it is very important for those people to have large blocks of time set aside for focused work. GTD failed for him.Īnother example where GTD fails is for anyone who is doing sustained creative work. The author of this blog post found that GTD resulted in his feeling like he had a never-ending river of stress ahead of him. What makes you feel better about your daily life will depend on your temperament. It doesn't matter how effective it is, that's not a life you want to be living. A productivity system that doesn't make you feel good about your daily life is not be sustainable in the long run.
