#17 How to Get the Right Things Done w/David Allen

We tend to think about personal productivity as doing more things more effectively – being able to optimize work processes, time schedules and to-do-lists. That is often not the case. In fact, personal productivity is about doing the right things rather than to do more things. It’s about having a clear mind, when you run a busy life – and most importantly: How to get things done. David Allen is wildly recognized as the world's leading authority on personal and organizational productivity. During the past 30 years, he has conducted pioneering research, coached and educated some of the world's highest performing professionals. He is here to help us get [the right] things done. DAVID TALKS ABOUTWhat is productivity, actually? It’s not time management, for sure. Why the daily to do lists don't work. Your life is too much of a surprise. Why the next step is the most important one.
