YLY 076: Getting Things Done In 2015 With David Allen

In episode #76 of You Leading You, David Allen, author of Getting Things Done, a book Time Magazine named in 2007 as THE self help business book of all time,  as well as the Founder of the GTD work-life management system, and an individual considered to be one of the world’s most influential thought leaders on productivity, talks to us about the path that brought him to create this far reaching and life changing system. From training 1,000’s of executives, to being a keynote speaker for NY Life, The Ford Foundation, L.L. Bean and the U.S. Navy to name a few, David has traveled many roads, which has led him to being a leader for so many others to reach their goals.

 Today David shares:

• How He Started From Having 35 Jobs By Age 35, To Creating His Own Profession!

• What Was The Key Turning Point To Being A Source Of Productivity For So Many!

• Why “A Mind Like Water” Is The Key To Accomplishing Things, Now More Than Ever!

• How Self Awareness Was An Anchoring Point For Focus And Attention!

• Why It’s Important To Know It’s A System, And Your Effort In It Is Key!

David gets his You Leading You Moment done by:

Always making sure that he has an ankle tether, just like a very professional surfer, on his higher self. It allows him to remember that we are not perfect, and helps us when we fail, as well as keeping us on our path. This keeps him in touch with the bigger focus of his universe.
