Getting Things Done (GTD)

1. Capture Everything: Capture anything that crosses your mind. Nothing is too big or small. These items go directly into your inboxes.
2. Clarify: Process what you've captured into clear and concrete action steps. Decide if an item is a project, next action, or reference.
3. Organize: Put everything into the right place. Add dates to your calendar, delegate projects to other people, file away reference material, and sort your tasks.
4. Review: Frequently look over, update, and revise your lists.
5. Engage: Get to work on the important stuff.

Make your tasks as specific and actionable as possible.

• If the item will take less than 2 minutes, complete it right away.
• If it can be delegated, assign the task to someone else.
• If it's a non-actionable reference item (eg, a file, document, article, contact information etc.) that you'll need to come back later, file it away in a seperate reference project or attach it to the comments of the relevant project or task.
• If the task needs to be done on a special date and/or time, give the task a due date.
• If the task is no longer needed or actionable, delete it.
• If a task requires more than one step, create a project to house all of the items associated with it and identify the one next action you can take to move the project forward.

The time spent clarifying and organizing your tasks means that when it's time to engage with work, you have fewer choices to make and fewer reference materials to find.

The review helps you adapt to changes, refocus your attention, identify next actions, and reflect on your workflow.
