I thought I'd pass this on here at the public forum, guessing there’s probably at least one other person in the same boat I'm in.
I was looking for some resources and help to further my GTD education and hone my processes and skills. The free podcasts are great and the company does a nice job of making a lot of free information available. I considered coaching and actually had a terrific free 20 minute call with one of their coaches to briefly discuss where I'm at with my processes and mindset, and how to best move forward. If money were no object I would just do coaching now, but given my circumstances I want to pluck all the low hanging and more affordable fruit I can before moving in that direction.
So, I bought a one month membership to Connect so I could really check it out. You can do a free trial but that doesn’t allow you to access the Connect podcasts or download materials, and I do a lot of such listening in my car, so that’s why I went ahead and bought a month of Connect.
Well, I can tell you that David and his team have done an unbelievable job of putting resources together on Connect. It’s almost unbelievable how much is there to help someone in my position. From the assessment tools to the Getting Started/Reacquainted series (terrific 4-5 minute videos on each step of the GTD process along with a 10-15 minute audio discussion between David and his coaches on that step), to the podcasts to the webinars to the various audio media like the In Conversation and Creative Questioning series, there is a LOT of meat on this bone. And I haven’t even really gotten into the forums there yet.
If you’re doing great and you’re happy with your workflow, then perhaps this is overkill for you. But if you’re like me and you needed some help, I can tell you I've seen few website offering more rich and useful content than Connect.
