Episode notes

You need an index of those things that you're committed to complete within the next few weeks or months. You can't finish in one sitting, get tires on your car, hard the vice president fix the tooth. How many projects should somebody be working on at any given period of time? That's quite dependent on the job your commitments, what you're doing in life.

David Allen, author of Getting Things Done, and Greg discuss the practical ways and key specifics to immediately begin the journey of cutting out what is non-essential, both personally and professionally. They go back and forth on the deeper and visionary elements of why it’s beneficial to focus on doing what matters most.
