The book Lifehack calls 'The Bible of business and personal productivity.'
'A completely revised and updated edition of the blockbuster bestseller from 'the personal productivity guru''-Fast Company
Since it was first published almost fifteen years ago, David Allen's Getting Things Done has become one of the most influential business books of its era, and the ultimate book on personal organization. "GTD" is now shorthand for an entire way of approaching professional and personal tasks, and has spawned an entire culture of websites, organizational tools, seminars, and offshoots.
Allen has rewritten the book from start to finish, tweaking his classic text with important perspectives on the new workplace, and adding material that will make the book fresh and relevant for years to come. This new edition of Getting Things Done will be welcomed not only by its hundreds of thousands of existing fans but also by a whole new generation eager to adopt its proven principles.

No major arena of US governance is more elitist than foreign policy. International relations barely surface in election campaigns, and policymakers take little input from Congress. For much of the twentieth century, officials, activists, and academics worked to foster an informed public that would embrace participation in foreign policy as a civic duty.
Every Citizen a Statesman recounts an abandoned effort to create a democratic foreign policy. Taking the lead alongside the State Department were philanthropic institutions like the Ford and Rockefeller foundations and the Foreign Policy Association, a nonprofit founded in 1918. In cities across the country, hundreds of thousands of Americans gathered in homes and libraries to learn and talk about pressing global issues.
But by the 1960s, officials were convinced that strategy in a nuclear world was beyond ordinary people, and foundation support for outreach withered. The local councils increasingly focused on those who were already engaged in political debate and otherwise decried supposed public apathy, becoming a force for the very elitism they set out to combat. The result, David Allen argues, was a chasm between policymakers and the public that has persisted since the Vietnam War, insulating a critical area of decision-making from the will of the people.

Scott Calloway, a missionary, wants nothing more than to stay in the Marshall Islands. Surrounded by warm sandy beaches, palm trees, and fellow believers - the islands are the only place he doesn’t feel alone.
However, after a recent shipwreck, and Scott nearly dying in a shark-fishing accident, the politically-minded mission leaders force him to leave.
On his way home to Alaska, Scott discovers the truth of what happened to his uncle Matthew, the only other Christian in his family. He also discovers the three keys to trust, and agonizes over whether to confront his family about what happened.
Regardless of what he decides, those responsible for his uncle’s death may still end up destroying his dysfunctional family from the inside-out.

Destiny has brought you here. The cute happy pig on the front cover made you curious about this book and now you are trying to decide if this Mp3 is right for me? So… here goes my sales pitch…In this book, I outline the knowledge and habits required for acquiring financial freedom, as it is essential for happiness. These habits will eventually leave you with the control, time, and freedom to live life on your terms. Many people claim that you can’t buy happiness, but I disagree. Money is a tool that can be used to achieve happiness, and any tool used in the wrong way will be useless and sometimes dangerous. So now you may be speculating whether this is a book about shares, real estate, or cryptocurrency. This book is about all of that, and I also discuss bonds and precious metals as well. Yes, I know it's hard to believe that all of the things which make great conversations at parties are jammed in these pages. I will go into detail about the pros and cons of each investment choice so you can pick a mixture that is right for you. There is no one size fits all approach to investment, as the correct asset allocation depends on your goals, your age, your income, your skills, and your psychology. But that is not all. This is a two-in-one book, as this is also a cheat sheet that provides money-saving tips. So that is my sales pitch, and I hope you give me a shot.

Very little time, focus, or education is being spent teaching and coaching this generation how to navigate this unprecedented amount of 'stuff' entering their lives each day. How do we help the overloaded and distracted next generation deal with increasing complexity and help them not only survive, but thrive? How do we help them experience stress-free productivity and gain momentum and confidence? How do we help them achieve autonomy, so that they can confidently take on whatever comes their way?

In its two editions, David Allen's classic has been translated into dozens of languages and sold over a million copies, establishing itself as one of the most influential business books of its era, and the ultimate book on personal organization. Getting Things Done for Teens will adapt its lessons by offering a fresh take on the GTD methodology, framing life as a game to play and GTD as the game pieces and strategies to play your most effective game. It presents GTD in a highly visual way and frames the methodology as not only as a system for being productive in school, but as a set of tools for everyday life.
