With all the recent attention that GTD has been receiving, especially since the incredible GTD Global Summit that just concluded, you might find yourself being asked to explain the “How To” of GTD to a curious colleague, friend or even spouse.

Unless you are David Allen himself, you might find yourself struggling to eloquently distill the practice of GTD down to a short and memorable set of concepts and equally simple and equally memorable steps that a novice can understand and even implement in short order to take those first few steps towards a lifetime of improved productivity, reduced stress, and the confidence that you are doing what you are best served to be doing at any given time.

It figures that someone whose title is “Editor in Chief” of a company called Goose Educational Media would be the one to do such an extrordinary job at creating such a document.  Thankfully for the rest of us, Chris Taylor not only took the time to write this resource he has generously put it online where anyone can take advantage of it any time they like.

Beyond this truly excellent summary the Goose Educational Media site is a truly amazing resource.  Founded upon the idea that sharing knowledge distilled from the top books about productivity, management, decision making and other disciplines  can have a profound impact upon an individual’s effectiveness, Chris Taylor and a team he describes as a phenomenal team of dedicated individuals have created a resource that is intended to give an individual the tools and the resources to change his or her life, and thereby the power to change the world.

It is a selfless effort that can benefit each and every one of us.  I urge you to take a look at the Golden Eggs of GTD and then to dig a bit deeper.  The site has a tremendous amount to offer and such a gift should not be overlooked, especially in these difficult times where every one of us can be well served to find ways in which we can each improve ourselves.
