Reviews"I am a devout, card-carrying GTD true believer. . . . The entire approach has boosted not only my productivity but also my wider well-being. But what amazes me just as much is how deeply GTD has taken hold around the world. . . . This is a genuine movement." --Daniel H. Pink, author of  Drive " Getting Things Done offers help building the new mental skills needed in an age of multitasking and overload." -- Sue Shellenbarger,  The Wall Street Journal "I recently attended David's seminar on getting organized, and after seeing him in action I have hope. . . .
