GTD is the gold standard productivity system. Here's how to implement it.

The 5 Steps of GTD

1. Capture

Collect everything that has your attention. Brain dump into a trusted system.

2. Clarify

Process each item. Is it actionable? What's the next action?

3. Organize

Put items in the right place. Next actions, projects, waiting for, someday/maybe.

4. Reflect

Weekly review to stay current. Review all projects and next actions.

5. Engage

Do the work. Trust your system to show you the right task at the right time.
