4.0 out of 5 stars Inspirational guide to getting organized, 12 Nov 2008
By Rolf Dobelli "getAbstract.com" (Switzerland) - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
David Allen's bestseller Getting Things Done (GTD) taught readers how to gain "focus, control and perspective." Simply put, this theory taught that if you organize your catalog of commitments and review it systematically, that process will relieve you of the stress and burden of having a chaotic to-do list constantly tugging at your consciousness. This positive self-management approach frees you to tap into your highest capabilities and experience true fulfillment. While the GTD method has attracted an international following, this follow-up doesn't quite bring it to the next level. Although it is coherent, cohesive and accessible, it relies a good bit on repetition and rehashes a lot of the original work, particularly in the first two chapters, where Allen sells the system. However, for followers who can't get enough of GTD, and for those who don't know it yet and hope to get organized, getAbstract recommends Allen's latest read, particularly the chapters where he articulates the five stages of control and the "horizons of focus."

5.0 out of 5 stars Getting Things Done on steroids, 13 Feb 2009
By Mateusz Drozdzynski (Cambridge, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book extends on the ideas presented in Getting Things Done, explains them thoroughly and presents you with new ideas on how to be productive. It's a great addition to your productivity library and if you enjoyed Getting Things Done you'll *really* appreciate all the tips and tricks from this book. Great read, totally recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Getting it done!!, 1 Mar 2009

(REAL NAME)   
As a big fan of the GTD this book is a true bible. It simplifies and gives the broad overview og the GTD methodology. Great book.
