David Allen is one of the world's foremost thinkers on productivity, having devoted almost 40 years professionally to the topic as well as a lifetime of refining Getting Things Done in his personal life. I'm so grateful to David for sharing some time with me on the show! Our conversation was wide ranging (a reflection of the person David is). We talked about how to handle small things on your mind like David’s favorite example “I need dog food”, the paradox of needing more organization the more creative you are, flow, and we pointed to the fact that the Getting Things Done methodology is closely in line with how our mind naturally works.
My favorite quotes from David during the show:
