Get Things Done 2.0

January 11, 2009 by Nikos Anagnostou

I am sure David Allen did not include it in his initial version of  “Get Things Done“  but, as far as I am concerned, it must be included from now on.
Ok, here is the new principle:

Abstain from Twitter or Friendfeed or Google Reader for so long as needed to see your TODO list drop down to one third.
If  ”one third’  is still above ‘ five items’,  abstain till it gets down to five.

Try it.

I am still trying it, by the way :)

    Interesting concept. I call it turning off the Twitter switch. It is definitely something that people need to think about and do.

    Thanks!
