Although I&#8217;ve been to about a dozen GTD and MAP* seminars over the past 15 years, I continue to learn something new each and every time I attend.<\/p>\n<p>Kelly Forrister is our presenter today, so I&#8217;m certain it will be a great day of learning and fun with a group of people committed to getting things done at work and play.  I&#8217;ve had the good fortune to work with Kelly at four different organizations over the past 15 years. She&#8217;s as passionate as I am about productivity and she&#8217;s also a geek and we share a mutual interest for high-tech gear to support our productive lifestyle. (If you haven&#8217;t done so, check out <a href=\"http:\/\/www.davidco.com\/blogs\/kelly\">Kelly&#8217;s blog <\/a> .)<\/p>\n<p>The GTD Mastering Workflow seminar is a relatively new format for this material. Instead of the traditional 2-day seminar, David Allen presents a one day seminar, called GTD RoadMap, which covers the high-level perspective of GTD, including theory and application. <!--more-->The second day, is called GTD Mastering Workflow, and it covers more of the hands-on DOING part of GTD.  Together they provide a great introduction, or in my case a refresher, to all things GTD.<\/p>\n<p>The information in the seminars hasn&#8217;t changed much &#8211; it&#8217;s proven and it works. It&#8217;s also simple. Too simple. That&#8217;s why I find it refreshing to hear it again to see what I missed or what productivity tip I&#8217;m now ready to hear.<\/p>\n<p>Well, the seminar is about to begin, so I&#8217;ll sign off for now. Time and wireless-access permitting, I&#8217;ll try to post an update later in the day.<\/p>\n<p>Eric<\/p>\n<p>* Long before these seminars took on the GTD brand, they were called &#8220;Managing Actions and Projects&#8221;. Same great stuff, finely tuned for results.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TIME: 8:45 AM I&#8217;m in Newport Beach today, attending the GTD Mastering Workflow Seminar.
