Review
“The Bible of business and personal productivity”  — Lifehack
“A completely revised and updated edition of the blockbuster bestseller from ‘the personal productivity guru’”  — Fast Company
“I am a devout, card-carrying GTD true believer... The entire approach has boosted not only my productivity but also my wider well-being. But what amazes me just as much is how deeply GTD has taken hold around the world... This is a genuine movement.”  — Daniel H. Pink, author ofDrive 
“Getting Things Done offers help building the new mental skills needed in an age of multitasking and overload.” — Sue Shellenbarger,The Wall Street Journal
“I recently attended David’s seminar on getting organized, and after seeing him in action I have hope. . . . David Allen’s seminar was an eye-opener.”—Stewart Alsop,Fortune
“Allen drops down from high-level philosophizing to the fine details of time management. Take a minute to check this one out.” — Mark Henricks,Entrepreneur

时间管理的本质，就是管理我们的心智和行动！戴维·艾伦的《搞定I：无压工作的艺术》已经成为时间管理领域的具影响力的著作之一，书中介绍的GTD（Getting Things Done）时间管理方法也成为全球千万读者用来轻松高效完成工作与个人事务的优秀工具。GTD看似简单易行，其背后却有深刻的洞见：
·原则：有效地处理内心的承诺。
原则一：养成收集待办事项的习惯。
原则二：确定下一步行动。
原则三：学会关注结果。
·目标：解除你精神上的负担，并把事情做好。只有轻松，才能高效。
重要的技巧：把一切事务赶出大脑。如果一件事情总占据着你的头脑，你的思维就会受阻。自下而上的方法：先琐事，再理想。当底层的具体事务得到及时处理后，你也就为更高一级的思维活动做好了准备。

Discover David Allen’s powerful methods for stress-free performance at work and in life— now completely updated.
David Allen’s Getting Things Done was hailed as “the definitive business self-help book of the decade” (Time) when it was first published almost fifteen years ago, and “GTD” has since become shorthand for an entire culture of personal organization that offers to change the way people work and live. Now the veteran coach and management consultant has rewritten the book from start to finish, tweaking his classic text with new perspectives on today’s workplace and incorporating new data that validates his timeless admonition that “your hear is for having ideas—not for holding them!”
Allen’s premise is simple: our productivity is directly proportional to our ability to relax. Only when our minds are clear and our thoughts are organized can we achieve effective results and unleash our creative potential. From core principles to proven tricks,Getting Things Done will teach you to:
·Apply the “do it, delegate it, defer it, drop it” rule to get your in-box empty
·Reassess goals and stay focused in changing situations
·Plan and unstick projects
·Overcome feelings of confusion, anxiety, and being overwhelmed
·Feel fine about what you’re not doing

Index

WELCOME TO A gold mine of insights into strategies for how to have more energy, be more relaxed, and get a lot more accomplished with much less effort. If you’re like me, you like getting things done and doing them well, and yet you also want to savor life in ways that seem increasingly elusive if not downright impossible if you’re working too hard. This doesn’t have to be an either-or proposition. Itispossible to be effectivelydoingwhile you are delightfullybeing,in your ordinary workaday world. I think efficiency is a good thing. Maybe what you’re doing is important, interesting, or useful; or maybe it isn’t but it has to be done anyway. In the first case you want to get as much return as you can on your investment of time and energy. In the second, you want to get on to other things as fast as you can, without any nagging loose ends. Andwhateveryou’re doing, you’d probably like to be more relaxed, confident that whatever you’re doing at the moment is just what you need to be doing—that having a beer with your staff after hours, gazing at your sleeping child in his or her crib at midnight, answering the e-mail in front of you, or spending a few informal minutes with the potential new client after the meeting is exactly what yououghtto be doing, as you’re doing it. Teaching you how to be maximally efficient and relaxed, whenever you need or want to be, was my main purpose in writing this book.
I have searched for a long time, as you may have, for answers to the questions ofwhatto do,whento do it, andhowto do it. And after twenty-plus years of developing and applying new
methods for personal and organizational productivity, alongside years of rigorous exploration in the self-development arena, I can attest that there is no single, once-and-for-all solution. No software, seminar, cool personal planner, or personal mission statement will simplify your workday or make your choices for you as you move through your day, week, and life. What’s more, just when you learn how to enhance your productivity and decisionmaking at one level, you’ll graduate to the next accepted batch of responsibilities and creative goals, whose new challenges will defy the ability of any simple formula or buzzword-du-jour to get you
what you want, the way you want to get it.
But if there’s no single means of perfecting personal organization and productivity, therearethings we can do to facilitate them. As I have personally matured, from year to year, I’ve found deeper and more meaningful, more significant things to focus on and be aware of and do. And I’ve uncovered simple processes that we can all learn to use that will vastly improve our ability to deal proactively and constructively with the mundane realities of the
world.
