Powerful video and message. Thanks for sharing. Would love to hear a ‘slice of GTD life’ from an individual such as David describes.

 

[Longstreet]

This was incredibly powerful and testimony to how GTD can make us all better at what we do at work and in life.

"The profundity in the practical" is as good a tagline for GTD as I've ever heard. I appreciate David reiterating that he got it right the first time with the original book release. There's no need to be on the GTD 11.7 release. 1.0 is everything we need.

I like it when David says, "there is magic in the mundane." That is a very profound statement.

He has another quote that applies:
"The mundane is not a substitute for the sublime. It's just a secret passage to it."

Reminds me of another quote: the only way out is through...

Cool, I'd never heard that one!
