"What really, really matters to you is your purpose and core values," he says. "You don't care where you live as long as what you don't care who you live with." The next level down would be something we call goals and objectives. And then the ground level would be all the actions you need to take about any of those open loops.
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.
