Throw your productivity tools away.<\/p>\n<p>OK, I\u2019m becoming more direct and succinct. (At 72 I think that serves us both, and I choose not to beat around the bush.) But I\u2019m also getting a bit bored with people half-heartedly attempting half-implemented solutions as they attempt to do \u201cjust a part of\u201d GTD and complaining about it \u201cnot sticking\u201d with them. Now, a partial engagement with this methodology won\u2019t really hurt (and can create some minor wins), but it produces such a minuscule fraction of the value possible if you go all the way. People who say they are \u201cdoing GTD\u201d are still showing me half-filled-out lists of still-undecided stuff in their system. They may have a few folders set up, a couple of next-action lists; but a majority of their stuff is still scattered from tables to briefcases to kitchen drawers to their heads\u2014all un-retrievable in any consistent fashion.<\/p>\n<p>Stop complaining about your stress and your overwhelm! Look outside\u2014the universe is not stress-out or confused. It\u2019s fine. It\u2019s only the way we are engaged with it that creates our negative reactions. GTD is the process we\u2019ve uncovered that creates appropriate engagement. What you\u2019re dealing with at hand may not be easy or fun, but being in the driver\u2019s seat about it moves that experience to a much more mature and effective level. But If you\u2019re not willing to make this process really work, 100%, don\u2019t tire yourself with the pretenses of half-baked solutions. They just add insult to injury, and quite frankly, may not be worth the energy to continue.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s like trying to keep air in only three tires on your car. Hello. IT WON\u2019T DRIVE WITHOUT THEM ALL! If you\u2019re going to flop along anyway, don\u2019t waste your energy trying to keep just a couple in good shape.<\/p>\n<p>Either your head is the place to keep track of stuff, or it\u2019s not. You\u2019d have a hard time intellectually justifying something in-between. If you use a calendar at all, you\u2019ve already admitted you need external support to manage your life.<\/p>\n<p>But, hey, why not? Just keep it all in your head, throw away your calendar, and trust that you\u2019ll have what you need for information and perspective whenever you need it. If you had the guts to really do that, 100%, it might work. I might actually try that some day. Until then I will be responsible to the creative process that I\u2019m born with, frequently makng agreements with myself and others that I need to define, clarify, track, and renegotiate regularly, to get off my own back and to make meaningful things happen.<\/p>\n<p>But, if there\u2019s only part of all this in your system and only a part in your head, you won\u2019t trust either place to give you appropriate guidance. You\u2019ll be driven in your choices of what to do by simply the latest and loudest things in your psyche. Good luck.<\/p>\n<p>OK, I admit it\u2014I\u2019m just projecting some of my own frustrations with the resistance to full-out execution of the Getting Things Done process that I have encountered with so many people, and the unfortunate give-up energy I have seen from people who \u201cfell off the wagon.\u201d Don\u2019t take me too seriously. Most people haven\u2019t really had the game defined so they could see how the partial solutions are no solution. But if you have&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Give yourself a break. If you\u2019re going to play this game the way you are trying to play it, you\u2019d better really play it.<\/p>\n<p>Write it down. Anything, everything. Decide what your intention is about it, and what the next step would be. Do the action, delegate the action, or defer the action to your list of optional things to do. Look at all that regularly. Be conscious about what you\u2019re doing, and what you\u2019re not. Get free. You should be focusing all your energy on bigger issues, greater joy, and more expanded opportunities.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks for listening.<\/p>\n<p>\u2013David Allen<\/p>\n<p><em>This essay appeared in David Allen\u2019s Productive Living Newsletter.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/eepurl.com\/UWZKr\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Subscribe for free here<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re not willing to commit to keeping your head completely empty, it&#8217;s not worth trying to make any &#8220;personal management system&#8221; work.
