Revised: Thinking in terms of 'Ends-to-Means' . . . 'AI' . . . better 'battle plan' than GTD?

An interpretation from David Allen for appreciated GTD value* awareness:

Increase Detachment . . . Decrease Anxiety . . . Mind Like Water . . . in Knowing What One is not Doing by increasing the "Done Value" of what one is Doing to Done?

*Value . . . when Present Doing Ends in creative Done for Future-Means, as in 'Ends to Means' seemingly makes for easier GTD motivation: Intrinsically, Extrinsically, Externally ?

As such, thinking in terms of 'Ends to Means' instead of 'Means to Ends' is seemingly more naturally GTD-ish and hopefully makes GTD that much easier

GTD methodology seemingly biased for "Ends to Means" when it comes to the Value of anything Done

Only when something is Done can it be a Means for something else thereafter, which is seemingly the essence of Done's Value?

"Means to Ends" sadly suggest a lot of 'litter' along the way of life
In that Ends to Means, in terms of 'Done's', continues to be for better-or-worse subjective Value since Done comes with ongoing effects~repercussions?

As such, one might be all the judicious in deciding what is a worthy commitment for Done . . . and promptly happier with what one is Not Doing for greater distraction-free Doing in what one is Doing to Done ?

Perhaps Mother Nature might be a good example on Mother's Day:
If the Ecological environment had been regarded and treated as an End in itself with incomprehensible inherent value instead of ignorantly used as simply Means, how much more healthy would the Ecological environment be in value-supporting the current generation and value-support future generations?

Seeing anything primarily seen as Means instead of an End seems to receive less care after a less appropriate engagement from the less 'after care' sadly making life more universally ugly for all concerned?

Apologies for any confusion(s):
Whoever said attempts to thoroughly understand what one does, including GTD, is easy . . . and only going to become more difficult as 'we all' enter into the world of 'AI'

Anyone has a better 'battle plan' that GTD, please do tell . . . thank you very much


As one sees how GTD fits best. . . .
