224: The 2-minute rule

from The Podcast · host Michael Sliwinski of Nozbe

I'm a great fan of GTD - Getting Things Done methodology by David Allen and as the founder of Nozbe, I love my simple structure of projects, tasks and comments. However, there are tasks that don't even go there, because if getting them done takes me less than 2 minutes, I just do them without even adding them to my system. Recently, I've been taking the 2-minute rule to a whole new level and you can read all about it in my essay at michael.team/2min or you can just listen to the AI co-hosts discussing all the examples where I've successfully applied this rule to improve my productivity. Enjoy!🎁 And for listeners, there’s a bonus from Nozbe ($30!)
