![]() ![]() No matter how urgent or how much you must complete that task today, if you do not have the right tool, are in the right place or with the right person you cannot do the task.Ī good example is if you need to reply to an email today, but you are on a 14-hour flight to Asia, and there is no internet available on the plane, no matter how urgent your reply is, there is absolutely nothing you can do about it. GTD works on the idea that in order for you to complete a task, you are going to need a tool-a phone, a computer or a machine, a place- your office your home or the local hardware store, or a person-your boss, partner or a friend etc. Okay, let's start with the basic idea behind GTD. How can I then be reassured that I will not forget any point that has a specific due date.? Without any scheduled dates how can one get things really done and don't lose the overview of all the things that have to be done? In the end, I have a great bunch of lists with many many points to go through and schedule. This week’s question comes from YouTube user Gilco. The GTD methodology takes that away and focuses on contexts to tell you what work to get done.Īnyway, before I answer the question, let me hand you over to the mystery podcast voice for this week’s question.

In this week’s episode, I answer a question about managing a pure GTD system (that’s Getting Things Done by David Allen) when you don’t use dates as reminders to do your tasks. My name is Carl Pullein and I am your host for this show. A podcast created to answer all your questions about productivity, GTD, self-development and goal planning. Hello and welcome to episode 13 of my Working With Podcast. In this week’s episode of The Working With Podcast, I answer a question about managing a pure Getting Things Done system. ![]()
