Category: “Getting Things Done - GTD”

Today, I want to share with you a post that was published by a guy from Ottawa (Canada) on LinkedIn a few days ago. His name is Aatik Chopra and I loved the way in which, with a few simple words, he defined how should be the pursuit of happiness:

Making decisions without having a real commitment with them is one of people’s main causes of frustration. It’s something that many people do regularly, and one of the most clear examples is when dealing with the famous New Year’s resolutions.

What are contexts?

At this point you already know that, in order to achieve those things you want, you need to focus on them. Many times, the only reason why you don’t achieve something is simply because you are focusing more on other things. Despite your willingness to improve and obtain good results, it’s very easy to get distracted with striking but less useful things. Therefore, when talking about focusing where its needed, any help is welcome.

Project management is a very easy and powerful component of GTD. However, it’s a bit confusing and it is sometimes used incorrectly. People used to using simple to-do lists don’t really know how to define and manage their projects, and those who have experience in project management in the business world try to use the same approach that is already familiar.
