Quick Start to GTD (Udemy.com)

There are slides titled Course Expectations which essentially contain bullet point of writer's own experience. Like "I started GTD in 2002". There is incoherence between the tile and the contents that can be confusing to the readers

Course is a decent overview but had very little practical instruction on how to actually implement (aka get started with) GTD. It’s all slides and bullet points; too much telling and not enough showing.

This course along with his Todoist course have been really eye opening to me. He explains in a very friendly, down-to-earth way how to organize things in your life. It's a subject matter that could get very boring. And even those this is just presented in slides, it is still engaging and interesting. I've also read David Allens' Getting Things Done years ago. Although it definitely helped me, there were still a lot of things that I wasn't able to figure out how to apply to my daily life. This course does that for me. I am very grateful that he made this course.

I like Dan's upfront and honest approach as it adopts a philosophy of morphing GTD methods to cater to one's own style & adaptability.

Yes...I think this is brilliant! My head feels so much lighter. What is shocking is...I have always thought of my self as someone who revolted against too much structure...I am finding out that the opposite is true - I actually needed the RIGHT structure for me.

This was a very good refresher. I've been trying to do GTD for many months, and was backsliding into bad habits. There were some very good tips and tricks.

I loved this course! I've been reading the Getting Things Done book (2015 version)...I've tried some official GTD (David Allen) training materials, I've watched some YouTube videos and I was having a hard time really connecting. I knew in theory I LIKED the system, but David Allen presents it at such a high/abstract level that I was finding it hard to apply. Plus in my opinion David Allen's presentations sound too "uppity/academic" for me and I really tune out a couple minutes in because I feel like he's lecturing a bunch of PhD candidates. This course served the MUCH NEEDED role of bringing things to a a quick review and practical application of GTD that I was able to engage with and follow. I WOULD LOVE to see a follow-up course from the instructor just walking through examples. Breaking down projects, etc. A screen-cast of the whole process from Brain Dump on would be super helpful and something I would totally buy into.

One of the best course I ever followed on Udemy. Very useful summary of GTD method on how to put it in place and use it on a daily basis. Many thanks !

This course is very basic and without real world example or practice. GTD Organization is done on actions and not on list of projects or tasks.

I've been trying to get GTD going for years. I have all three printed books and two on audio. I just never put in enough time to sort it out in my mind and tough it out. This is exactly what I've been looking for. Dan gets to the point quickly and clearly, teaches just the needed concepts, gives exactly the necessary steps you need to get started, and includes countless little lessons that one normally learns the hard way. Bonus: He enunciates so clearly, I can listen at double-speed.
