This week, we’re showcasing how GTD® coaching helps you build a system that fits your life, not someone else’s.
Whether you’ve just read the book, feel overwhelmed by an increasingly complex setup, or are simply wondering how to make GTD habits stick, our coaches share how personalized support makes all the difference.
Coaching is your shortcut to tangible results
Have you ever walked out of a GTD seminar or finished David’s book feeling energized, only to slip back into old habits within days?
In this conversation, GTD coaches Julie Ireland and Mary O’Malley discuss the difference between understanding GTD and actually living it. Julie shares how her post-seminar insights quickly faded under daily pressures—until she found a coach who helped her install, implement, and integrate GTD into her life.
GTD isn’t about following rules. It’s about building your system, for your world, with your tools, at your pace. Coaching helps you do just that, without the overwhelm.
Why getting organized is good for your mind
When you hear “mental health,” you probably don’t think of your “productivity system.” But maybe you should.
In this short video, GTD coach Janet Riley connects the dots between well-being and workflow. She shows how GTD supports core components of mental health: stress relief, clarity, mindfulness, and focus. When your world feels chaotic, your system helps keep you steady.
From to-do list to self-check-in
GTD isn’t just a way to stay productive, it’s a way to stay grounded.
GTD coach Christina Armstrong reflects on how her system has evolved. It started as a tool to keep up, but now it helps her stay focused and present. When something feels off—whether she’s fatigued, frustrated, or low on energy—she doesn’t ignore it. She captures it, clarifies it, and turns it into something actionable.
