After sticking with it for months, I’m still very happy. Bottom lineįor those who just want a straight answer, NirvanaHQ is my winner. Surely a better implementation must exist by now.Īfter taking a couple of months to try different software solutions, I’ve settled on using NirvanaHQ. It was called “ The secret weapon” and it worked well - I’ve used and refined it for years, until last year I finally decided it’s time to switch. When I started practicing GTD, the best implementation I found was in Evernote. While originally it was implemented with physical files, folders and papers, it has since been transformed by many practitioners to accommodate to the digital age. The book was published almost 20 years ago and today is still, in my opinion, the best and most complete personal productivity system out there. Present-me and future-me have become great allies and even more importantly I enjoy the process of planning and performing my tasks and work. The trust between present-me and future-me was pretty low.Īfter several years of practicing the GTD system, I became an objectively more reliable, consistent and productive person. I would pick up and drop projects on a whim, forget tasks that I promised to do, arrive late to everything and generally I just felt unproductive and stressed. Before reading it in 2014 I considered myself a smart and driven person, but also unreliable, irresponsible and chaotic. Getting Things Done is one of those very rare books that changed my life. It’s not a perfect book (I gave it ★★★★☆), but the abstract concepts behind it are so powerful that in combination they feel like acquiring a superpower. I do not intend to repeat the contents here, but I will include some nice variable-length summaries I’ve found and enjoyed: If you’re unfamiliar with Getting Things Done, I strongly urge you to go read the book, it’s a life changer.
