The Five Big Ideas

1. Getting things done requires defining what “done” means and what “doing” looks like.
2. Mastering your workflow involves capturing what has your attention, clarifying what it means, putting it where it belongs, reviewing it frequently, and engaging with it.
3. If an action will take less than two minutes, it should be done at the moment it is defined.
4. Anxiety and guilt don’t come from having too much to do; it comes from breaking agreements with yourself.
5. Your mind is for having ideas, not for holding them.
