Episode notes
Six Nested Horizons Provide Perspective
- Horizons of Focus are six nested levels from next actions up to purpose and principles that provide perspective in GTD.
- They help you sum in and out to see both immediate control and long-term direction.
Control vs Perspective In GTD
- GTD separates control (five processing steps) from perspective (Horizons of Focus).
- Use Horizons to prioritise what to work on at any given time.
