Welcome to Litsy!

Finished Book #2 of readathons a few hours ago and forgot to post it. I thought the GTD method the author proposes in this book is very reasonable and should be executable. Maybe I'll try it out starting this next week. #readathon #20in4 #deweysapril @DeweysReadathon @Andrew65

I had to wait forever to borrow this book from my local library. Great way to start my reading list for 2022. . Due in 8 days.

I went to a professional training about this methodology about 6 years ago, and have been singing its praises ever since. Yet I somehow never actually got around to reading the accompanying book. Apparently I didn't take it's lessons to heart... That changes now!

2. After three calls and an hour or two on the phone, I was able to order replacement contacts. Desperately needed.

The theory in this book is amazing and I can't wait to implement the whole system. I did the email organization and it did help with stress relief.

I only have two slight issues with this book:
1.) It rambles on a little. (I like "how-to" books that are more to the point.)
2.) You should not - under any circumstances - listen to this book while doing anything else. Not being able to do the exercises backfires and stresses you out even worse.

#coffeeandabook Maybe reading this will help me with reading the books I own. #readmytbr

Stack 3/3 for #SelfImprovement Display replenishment. 😊

Have you read any of these?!

Do you have any favorite books that have helped you with productivity or habits?

Everything in life is either a frustration or an opportunity!

I've really been trying to work on my time-management, which is why this was my most recent audio book, but I didn't feel everything in here was totally adaptive. Still, there was a lot of good advise and methods in here. 👍

Let all #Saturday mornings be like this! Happy Weekend everyone. What's on your #TBR stack this weekend?

Loved the book and system, but never quit worked for me - but think this was more about me. 😂

One of the most useful books I've ever read!

👀 Nobody look! I'm quietly burying this in the depths of my kindle, and walking away.

Allen has a theoretically great system, but if I was actually capable of implementing it, I probably wouldn't need to implement it. I don't think the problem he's trying to solve is the problem I have (chronic #procrastination!). But I do like his 'Next Action' tips.

Also, it's Wordy! Think I need something a little more minimal. And achievable.

Moving on!

Flippin' Norah!

The man has a system, and a lot of it makes a lot of sense. But.
a. The thought of writing down EVERYTHING that's in my head kind of freaks me out a lot.
b. Why use 5 words when you can use 3 paragraphs?
c. I am not convinced that my life will be incomplete until I buy a labeller.

I'm working through this, & I'm sure I'm going to find a lot of it useful. But the whole thing? Definite #overkill.

#CurrentRead! 🙌🏻

This has been on the shelf since 2015... pulled it onto my TBR in June, started actually reading in Sept and finally finished today. I was really interest in this updated version (I read the original years ago) because it was supposed to incorporate more digital solutions & technology but it really only changed “paper system” to “paper or electronic system”, which was a big disappointment and now I‘m not so concerned it took me so long to get to.

Well, that‘s a visual I wasn‘t expecting from a productivity book

#GTD

Working my way through this book & already feeling motivated

Reading on my lunch hour, trying to get back into this book for work. #readeverywhere #finishwhatyoustart

Evening plans: the one on the left until it gets dark and then the one on the right until it gets light.

‪I really need to buckle down on my TBR so I'm participating in #boutofbooks 20 starting August 21st. Join me! http://boutofbooks.blogspot.ca

Excited to read this at last after hearing @Liberty and @rebeccaschinsky talk about it on the various podcasts. With all the things I'm trying to manage in my life, these ideas are going to come in super useful.

Got work books? Anyone find books about time management, efficiency or leadership helpful to their job? I do and I'm just now starting Getting Things done. Pictured is my work library in my office. Any others you love? #workbooks #management #efficiency

Well the husband's dot is moving away from work so now I have to go pretend like I'm doing something productive. Also - I have spent a gazillion dollars and have probably read two entire books at Lice Ladies during the daycare years...

"You don't manage five minutes and wind up with six" - yes, I do think of this every time I hear the phrase "time management"

He makes it look so simple... #gtd #gettingthingsdone #productivity

#gettingshitdone for 2017!

Yay! Thanks to everyone who's liked and commented 😘

Well, I've abandoned all my other reading for this reread but I promise I'm getting a lot out of it!

I need to reread this and get my life back on track. Best system I've found that helps me stay on top of things. Also, I'm writing a new blog series on this https://thatlibrarianlady.com/posts/getting-things-done/

Ok, book recommended by so many people, change my disorganized and chaotic life. Party hat added for authenticity.

It's the funniest thing I've read all day!

Guilty as charged.

Had to buy a physical copy so I can highlight and tab pages. Don't make fun because this is my bible when it comes to not getting stressed out by ALL THE THINGS.

I'm having a "making things really count" moment with both my professional and personal life, so here I am seeing what all the GTD fuss is about.
