I have officially drank the “Getting Things Done by David Allen” Kool-Aid; Hulk help us ALL!

I am still going through the book slowly, but have found some great resources outside of the book you can check out.

Here are 5 links that will help you if you are interested in GTD (Getting Things Done).

Top Links for getting things done:

Get on Tracks: Doing Things Properly (software)
This software was created for using the GTD system. I plan on sticking with Evernote, Google Calendar, Google Tasks, and Gmail. You might want to test this software out if you are looking for the best software for yourself.
minezone.org: Notes from Getting Things Done
A breakdown of the basic concepts and systems in the book in a minimalist format. I assume this article is notes for someone learning the system.
David Allen Company (the creators of the system): Free Articles
You have to sign-up, but you get access to 15 articles and 5 helpful handouts.
Internet Business Mastery: Getting Things Done (GTD) with Mindmaps
Jason Van Orden talks about how he used the GTD. Since his business is similar to mine I found it really help to see how he implemented his action items and projects.
The Secret Weapon: Useful videos

I hope these links help you with Getting Things Done.

I would like to let you know this blog post was written as a way to procrastinating from reading the rest of the Getting things Done Book. I am currently half way done and needed a break.

I hope this helps and you might want to read the rest of the posts in this series.

Mmmmmm. Kool-aid.

While I don’t do everything that is taught in GTD 100%, it has had a huge impact on how I work.

Specifically, I love that flowchart in your photo. The concept of “next action” is also key for me when attacking projects.

Thanks for the mention!

Thanks Jason,
I have personally found the idea of an “inbox” from GTD as a helpful tool. I’m one of those people who constantly shift gears mid-execution of an action plan to work on a different project. I am hoping that getting it all out as the system describes will help with this.
My big thing right now is trying to regulate the best way to spend my time. I found your organizational chart especially helpful in making sure I have covered all the bases in my business.
After I finish putting together my Time Management System (write now I’m collecting everything and clearing out my inbox) I plan to final go completely through the Internet Business Mastery Academy. I stopped last time around module 2 or 3, but now that I have more time. I hope to just plow through it the next week or two.
Thanks for all your great content,
Jason Love
