Prepare to be inspired by Simon Penhaligon's one-weekend implementation of GTD. After agreeing to take on twice his usual workload, Simon knew he needed a new way of working. Over one intense weekend, he listened to the Getting Things Done audiobook, and set up his system. Since getting into the GTD groove, Simon has been able to handle the expanded workload, while driving his inbox to zero daily, and still spending evenings and weekends with his wife and daughter. He uses Microsoft Outlook for email and calendar, and Evernote for everything else.

Season 3, Episode 7 | "Is peace available in the midst of your chaos?" In this episode of Strong & Awake, Dane and Mitch challenge the notion that balance and comfort are the ultimate goals in life. They argue that living in perpetual comfort leaves us weak and asleep, and that true fulfillment comes from embracing voluntary discomfort. Through candid discussions, they explore how the pursuit of balance often masks a deeper desire for relief from stress, and how this pursuit can lead to a life of settling for less. They encourage listeners to confront the reality of life's challenges and to choose discomfort as a path to growth and resilience. By adopting practices that build resilience, individuals can transform their relationship with stress and unlock a life of greater agency and fulfillment. This episode is a call to action to redefine what it means to live a strong and awake life, and to find peace not in the absence of chaos, but through it.Chapters:00:00 Introduction01:16 The Illusion of Balance05:30 Comfort is an Idol10:23 Embracing Life's Hardships16:00 Voluntary Discomfort as Growth and Peace22:48 Machine or Garden30:26 Building Resilience Through HabitsMentions:Brene Brown - Mentioned in the context of people wearing stress and busyness as a badge of honor.David Allen's GTD (Getting Things Done) - Referenced as a productivity system that some people use to manage their time and tasks.Kierkegaard - Quoted for his comment about man finding the level of despair he can tolerate and calling it happiness.James Clear's "Atomic Habits" - Mentioned as a resourceful guide for building good habits and breaking bad ones.Anchor Actions:1. Embrace Voluntary Discomfort: Start incorporating small, manageable discomforts into your daily routine. This could be as simple as taking a cold shower, fasting until noon, or doing a daily workout. The goal is to build resilience and strength by choosing challenges that push you out of your comfort zone. These small acts can lead to significant personal growth and prepare you for larger challenges.2. Reevaluate Your Relationship with Stress: Instead of seeking constant relief or balance, begin to see stress as a natural part of life that can be navigated and even embraced. When stress arises, take a moment to assess how you're interpreting it. Are you viewing it as a burden or as an opportunity for growth? Shifting your mindset from avoidance to acceptance can transform how you handle life's challenges.3. Simplify and Focus: Take immediate action by decluttering your environment of things that don't serve your goals. For instance, clear out unhealthy foods from your pantry or eliminate distractions from your workspace. By reducing unnecessary clutter, you create space for more intentional living, making it easier to focus on what truly matters and aligns with your values.Join Us:Our Membership Community (MWOD) is where we embrace discomfort as a path to personal development.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show. From time to time, something comes along that sounds great when first described but then turns nasty.  In the productivity world, that something is Getting Things Done and in particular the definition of what a project is.  This is not the fault of David Allen, Getting Things Done's author; this is how his description of a project has been horribly misinterpreted.  At its essence, Getting Things Done is about categorising your work into contexts. That could be work you can do on your computer or phone. In your office or at home. It is, and never was about “projects”. Projects, at best, are a sideshow. A simple way to organise your work. Nothing more. Yet for some reason, a few early readers misunderstood GTD, wrote about it and now there's a whole generation of people believing anything that involves two steps or more is a project and must be organised as such.  And there, is the source of overwhelm, time wasted to organising stuff instead of doing stuff and huge backlogs of things to do. Before we get to the heart of today's podcast, it's important that I clear this misunderstanding up.  If you ever bought one the fantastic GTD setup guides that was, and may still be, sold on the GTD website, you will notice that whatever task manager you are using, you set up the lists, folders or projects (depending on which task manager you are using) as contexts. Those contexts usually related to people, places or things. For example, your home, or office. Your computer, printer or car. Or your partner, boss or colleagues.  You then dropped any task related to these contexts into its appropriate context.  Your projects were organised in a file folder system that you kept in a filing cabinet. Current projects—the things you were working on this week or month—were kept on or near your desk for quick access.  In those folders you kept all the details of the project. Notes, documents, outlines, etc. Perhaps you also had a checklist of what needed to happen next.  Today, you can use your digital note app for that purpose.  The key thing about GTD was it was task context driven—ie, you could only do something if you were in the right place, with the right tool and with the right people. It was never about projects.  So, now you have the background, I think it's time to hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question. This week's question comes from Benjamin. Benjamin asks, How do you best manage projects using your task manager, notes app, and calendar together? Hi Benjamin, thank you for your question.  I think the first place to start is to avoid looking for a way to treat any new input as a project. Most things are not.  Theoretically, this podcast is a project. I need to choose the question, write the script, set up the studio, record the podcast, edit it, then publish it and hand it over to the my marketing manager for sharing on social media.  That's seven steps. Well within the definition of a GTD project. Yet, if I were to treat each podcast episode as a project, I'd waste hours just organising it.  A podcast episode is something I do every week. It's not a project. It's just part of my work.  Usually, on Thursday I will write the script. That means I go into my list of questions which is in a single note in Evernote, select a question, then begin writing the script.  Then on Sunday morning, after my coaching calls have finished, I set up my little studio, and record the podcast. Once recorded, I edit it and then publish it.  The only tasks on my task manager are a task on Thursday that reminds me I need to write my script and a task on Sunday that reminds me to record the podcast. Two tasks. That's it.  I don't need a project folder for any of this.  There is one other thing I do that relates to your question, Benjamin. I have a two hour writing block on my calendar on a Thursday for writing the script and a two hour block on Sunday for recording it.  So, there in essence you have all three tools working together.  I have a single note in my notes app with the title “podcast questions”. That makes it easy to search for.  My task manager reminds me when I need to write the script and record the podcast. My calendar protects enough time each week to ensure I get each part of the process completed.  If you want to simplify things I would suggest looking at how you define a project.  In my eyes, a project is something unique, something you either have not done before or rarely ever do. Typical projects would be: Moving house Buying a new car Planning a vacation Setting up a new payroll system Starting a business Finding a new job Doing the work you are employed to do is not a project—well not unless you are a project manager. An advertising agency isn't going to treat each new client as a “project”. An advertising agency creates advertising campaigns every day.  The graphic designer has a list of designs they are working on and when they begin their day they only need to choose which campaign they will work on that day.  Designing is their job.  The same goes for the copywriter. When they begin their day they choose which campaign to work on and that is dictated by when the next client meeting is. What is the work you are employed to do?  A teacher doesn't treat each new class as a project. They have a process or system for preparing their materials and when the teaching time begins they teach.  It's possible that a lot of your work does require a place to keep meeting notes, plans and links to documents you may be working on. That's what your notes app is for.  Your notes app has replaced the filing cabinet today. Filing cabinets were static—they never moved. Your digital notes app can go with you wherever you go.  If you do have any projects, that is where the information and resources go.  All your task manager needs to do is tell you what you should be working on today.  You may have tasks like: Work on new payroll system project Finish proposal for Universal Exports Follow up Mr Oddjob at Auric Enterprises Clear Action This Day folder Your calendar tells you if your task list for the day is realistic. If you have six hours of meetings today and you plan to work on your payroll project and finish the proposal for Universal Exports, you're likely being a little ambitious.  You calendar tells you if you have time to do the things you'd like to do that day.  You can go further, though and use your calendar to protect time for doing your key work.  If, for example, you want to (or need to) spend two hours working on the Universal Exports proposal, then you can block time on your calendar for doing that work. There might be some time sensitivity involved there. Getting the proposal to Universal Exports might be the most important thing you need to do that day. That would be flagged in your task manager as a non-negotiable task that day.  The daily and weekly planning is where I would decide what I will be working on that day or week.  The planning sessions are where you can step back and look at the bigger landscape of what you have to do and decide where you will put your time that day.  Right now, I do have a project. I am in the process of recording the audiobook version of Your Time Your Way. This is not something I can sit down a real off as a single task.  I need to book the recording studio and sound engineer and my voice will only last for around 3 hours before I begin sounding like an out of tune frog.  The only thing I need in my system each week is when I need to be at the recording studio. Currently that is Wednesday nights at 7:30. We record until 10:30 pm. I don't need a task for any of that. That's on my calendar.  The next day, the sound engineer sends me the recordings and I go through them to make sure everything sounds right. I have a task in my task manager that pops up each Thursday reminding me to review that previous day's recordings.  I have a project folder for the Your Time, Your Way book. That contains all my notes, meeting notes and any information I may need. Right now, though, I don't need to reference that. I just need to turn up at the recording studio on Wednesday nights, record the audiobook and review the recordings the next day.  The important thing is not to confuse your core work with projects. Core work is the work you are employed to do. Designers design, teachers teach, managers manage, truck drivers drive a truck.  All you need is a list of tasks you want to complete each day and get on and complete as many as you can. The majority of those tasks will be related to your core work. A project, on the other hand, is something unique, often outside of your core work, that needs additional time for doing. You may need to utilise your unique skills to complete that project, you may only have a small say in the project. Either way, on a day to day basis, the only thing you need to decide is what your next task is and do that.  This year is the fifth anniversary of the Time Sector System course. I am currently in the process of re-recording and updating that course.  Is it a project or just part of my core work.  I know from experience that if I treat it as a project things will get complicated.  Yet, I've create many courses over the years. I know the process.  For an update, it's to review and update the course outline. Then schedule time on my calendar for recording and editing it. There will be some additional tasks related to marketing, but I am not there yet. I'm recording, so the driver is my calendar.  Hopefully that has helped, Benjamin. The key is to simplify things as much as possible. Try to avoid creating projects and instead ask if there is a process you can follow. Most things you frequently do has a process.  Processes speed everything up. As the Formula 1 season is about to start, I'm reminded of one of the sports best leaders, Ross Brawn's comment on running a team.  The new car for the new season is never considered a project. It's a process. There's a time to begin work on the new car, there's a time to test the new car, etc. Yet none of that is considered a project. Aerodynamicists do the aerodynamics. Engineers work on the chassis and engine and the logistics people work on the logistics. It's what they do every day.  Yet, building a new wind tunnel, or engineering factory, that would be a project. These “projects” are rare and need specialist inputs.  Don't forget, we're two weeks away from the first Ultimate Productivity Workshop of 2025. This is your opportunity to take a live workshop with me where I help you to create and build your very own productivity system, A system that works for you.  Thank you Benjamin for your question and thank you to you too for listening. It just remains for me to wish you all a very very productive week.

Sunday, February 23rd | David Allen"This is why I left you in Crete, so that you might put what remained into order, and appoint elders in every town as I directed you..." — Titus 1:5This week's message dives into Titus 1:1-9, emphasizing the importance of godly leadership, sound doctrine, and a life rooted in faith. Paul's instructions to Titus remind us to pursue integrity, surround ourselves with a community of faith, and hold firmly to the truth of God's Word. Just as elders were called to lead with humility and discipline, we are challenged to examine our own character and commitment to Christ. Join us as we explore what it means to live a transformed life, shaped by God's truth and love.–Podcast: https://pod.link/willowridgechurchWebsite: https://willowridgechurch.orgInstagram: https://instagram.com/willowridgechurchFacebook: https://facebook.com/willowridgechurchYouTube: https://youtube.com/@willowridgechurch

The latest episode of PM Talks is here, and this month, Patrick Rhone and I dive into alignment—a concept that is critical for making meaningful progress in both work and life. As we move beyond the fresh-start energy of January, February is often when things begin to fray. That's why now is the perfect time to step back and examine whether our actions are truly aligned with our intentions.Alignment isn't just about getting things done—it's about ensuring that what we do actually moves us in the right direction. In this conversation, Patrick and I explore how alignment impacts productivity, why asking "why" is just as important as asking "what's next?", and how attunement plays a role in adapting to life's ever-changing landscape.Key Discussion Points Why alignment is more than just checking things off a to-do list—it's about meaningful action. The missing piece in traditional productivity systems: aligning actions with deeper intentions. The difference between alignment (structured precision) and attunement (adaptive responsiveness). Why Making It All Work by David Allen is an underrated book on the "why" of productivity. How regularly questioning “why” can dramatically reduce overwhelm and improve decision-making. The tension between who we are, who we want to be, and what we actually do each day. The role of curiosity in navigating misalignment and adjusting course when needed. As we wrap up, we lay the groundwork for next month's PM Talks on curiosity—a natural follow-up to this discussion. If you've ever felt out of sync with your goals or struggled to balance structure with flexibility, this episode will help you find clarity.Links Worth Exploring Patrick's book, "For You" Patrick's Website An underrated David Allen book: Making It All Work Fish: A Tap Essay We didn't talk about this, but it does have to do with "why" Check out ALL of the PM Talks episodes Thanks to all of the sponsors of this episode.

Jens Hynne Petersen is a longtime GTD enthusiast. He recaps his GTD journey, with the 2019 GTD Summit a highlight. He has been interested in paper systems, but discusses his preference for using a digital tool. His participation in the GTD community in Europe grew into a role as one of the primary organizers of what has become an annual event -- a GTD Summer Camp. It's a weekend event held near Copenhagen, Denmark that has a remarkably devoted core of repeating attendees. From the description Jens gives, and the pictures from the 2024 Summer Camp, you'll understand why so many look forward to camp every year.
