"If your mind is empty, it is always ready for anything; it is open to everything." ~ Shunryu Suzuki
Imagine if you could keep all your personal management under control at all times and at all levels. Imagine if you could dedicate all your attention, with no distractions, to whatever you decide to do. Imagine if you could get meaningful things done in a relaxed way and with minimal effort.
That kind of experience is known in martial arts as mind like water and in other environments as staying in the zone. We all have been there sometime. It is in those moments when our thinking flows creatively, work gets done effortless and time goes by inexplicably.
The promise of GTD is that you can achieve that stress-free state of control, in which you will respond appropriately to whatever shows up — without giving it more or less attention than it deserves — in a regular way, over and over again.
