Plate spinning with GTD

Keeping all your projects going at once is a lot like plate spinning. To maintain any sort of momentum, there’s got to be some energy inputs by you or someone else. If you stop paying attention, the project wobbles and eventually grinds to a halt. In this episode, you’re sure to find something that will help you keep your own plates spinning smoothly with nary a wobble in sight. Download the podcast here.

The GTD Virtual Study Group meets on the 2nd and 4th Thursdays of every month. Our next meeting will be on August 28 when we celebrate one year of the Virtual Study Group. We will use Dean Acheson's process of visioning and the natural planning model to envision what the group will do over the next year. REMEMBER, there will be no meeting on August 14.

David recently interviewed Dean as part of the GTD Connect: In Conversation series which created lots of interest in learning more from Dean. Download the podcast here.
