This week, GTD® experts share strategies on how to move beyond busywork, trust your instincts, and gain clarity on the values you hold most dear.
Value Your Inner Voice
David Allen challenges the idea that productivity is about rigid systems or the perfect plan. He outlines a smarter, more fluid way to find the things that matter most in your life, one that relies on your intuition and helps you act with confidence no matter how full your plate is.
Think Big and Look Up
Are you busy with daily tasks but feel like you’re not making progress? GTD coach Christina Armstrong shares her approach to the Horizons of Focus, the six levels of your work and life.
She shows how stepping back to revisit higher levels like goals, vision, and purpose can make it clear what truly deserves your attention. Learn how using these horizons to guide your priorities helps you focus on the right things and move forward with confidence toward something meaningful.
Building a Long-Term Practice
Most productivity programs stop at getting organized. This one goes further.
GTD Coaches Mary O’Malley and Julie Ireland introduce The GTD Focus Five Horizons Coaching Program, a two-year deep dive for people ready to connect their daily actions to long-term purpose.
Mary and Julie explain that while the Foundation and Strategy programs cover the essentials like projects, next actions, and weekly reviews, the Five Horizons program goes deeper. It explores goals, vision, purpose, and values, helping you step back, spot patterns across your life and work, and make intentional choices that align with what matters most.
Client Testimonial:

Quote of the Week
“Setting goals is the first step in turning the invisible into the visible.” – Tony Robbins
