I found GTD and I did not get along. For me, the result was the opposite of its name, or exactly the name if you define &quot;things&quot; to be all the pointless things in life that you shouldn&#x27;t waste your time with.<p>I found the important&#x2F;due date quadrant system espoused by Randy Pausch in his Time Managenent video to be the best way to get important things done. GTD didn&#x27;t make that distinction and in my experience, it made it worse.<p>Disclaimer: I know how overzealous I was about GTD when I was using it, and I want to say that I&#x27;m not interested in talking about why you think I should try GTD again. I don&#x27;t want to debate with anyone about GTD. This is only my experience with trying to use it in my life 5 years ago for about a year. It didn&#x27;t mesh with my goals. I am excited for you if it&#x27;s served you well, though!
