GTD – Getting Things Done
- I bought the book – Getting Things Done by David Allen.

- Read the first 2 (two) chapters.
- My inbox gathering and emptying skills are already greatly improved, but I’m still trying to figure out what some of my other “trusted buckets” are. Like the old song said… “There’s a hole in the bucket.”
- Noticed that Michael Hyatt has a section of his blog Working Smart – with tips about GTD.

[...] Right on the heels of reading Getting Things Done, a friend told us about FreeCycle. Using the GTD method, you are encouraged to fill up your trash can every day. The inbox is your friend. The file drawer is your friend. The trash can is your friend.
[...] Well ladies, I’d be interested in knowing if any of your husbands have discovered GTD. GTD stands for getting things done. My husband has been interested in learning more about GTD the past 2 months and my home has become much more organized and more clutter free than before. One of the big lessons we’ve been learning is to NOT make the whole basement, garage and house a big inbox. Instead, have a (that’s right A) designated spot / basket on the desk for the inbox. What this will do is begin to consolidate incoming info. Also, a motto is the TRASH CAN IS MY FRIEND. That’s right, keep throwing out junk/decluttering. Throw stuff out daily, esp. at the beginning of implementing some of these changes. We can actually see alot more of our basement floor since we got going with this system. If you have any GTD stories to swap, let me know. [...]
