David Allen: Getting More Sh*t Done | Productivity | E21
The GOAT of productivity returns! This week Hala interviews famed author David Allen for the second time. You may remember him from episode #5, where he covered the five steps of The Getting Things Done (GTD) system in great detail. If you want a refresher or never listened to that episode yet, feel free to go back and check it out.
This time time around Hala is yappin’ with David about his general productivity principles, and learning more about how he became the GOAT or Greatest Of All Time when it comes to productivity.
Take a listen to learn how martial arts and new age thinking inspired his productivity approach, understand the importance of having a clear head and discover why there are no problems, only projects.
