Getting Things Done for Creatives. What Does It Look like and How Can You Do It? with David Allen


Listen Later

I've read a few books about productivity and work that have radically changed how I think about finding time to work and creative projects.

One of those books is Getting Things Done by David Allen, and it made a significant impact on how I think about work. 

In this week's interview, David discusses how your mind is for having ideas, not for holding onto them, and writers and creatives must have a system for capturing all of their ideas.

I started the interview by asking him how GTD has changed since he first came up with the concept over 20 years ago.

In this episode, we discuss:

  • How GTD has evolved over the years
  • Strategies for managing inboxes
  • Practicing weekly reviews
  • Managing your priorities
  • The books key role in the development of GTD courses
  • How the book was received in different languages around the world
