Podcast: Interview with GTD's David Allen on Procrastination

Productive Talk #01: Procrastination

As I mentioned yesterday, today 43 Folders and The David Allen Company are happy to bring you the first in a series of wide-ranging conversations that David and I recently had about Getting Things Done.

So, let’s kick things off with a goodie. Here’s The David’s take on that devil, Procrastination.

In this episode, David and Merlin talk about a very popular topic on 43 Folders – procrastination. They discuss where procrastination comes from and how GTD can help get you back to cranking widgets. (13:21)

I think I'm with Natasha...

I think I’m with Natasha here, not with schoolwork necessarily, but with work, household chores, exercise and a few other things.

It’s not that I’m forgetting to do any of these things, or that there’s something niggling in the back of my mind that I just can’t remember, it’s that I just can’t get it into gear.

For instance, “jog 2 miles” is one of my recurring actions. When the alarm goes off, I just don’t want to get out of bed and go do it and I can’t get motivated to do it any time during the day. This recurring action has been slipping for quite a few weeks now.

Maybe Merlin and Dave need to do a “overcoming layziness” podcast for some of us.
