There are no problems, only projects. Meg explains 👇 youtu.be/-rlTwoojMuU

Try asking these questions during more complex project planning that involves multiple people or inputs: • Whose input do you need? • Are there any legal issues? • What are the financial implications? • Are there major risks?

Next time a project keeps showing up in your Weekly Review: Don’t add more tasks. Run it through the Natural Planning Model.

GTD Coach Meg Edwards shares how to stop endlessly skimming and start clarifying your “ins.” youtu.be/gRy4BoDNvSk

Clarifying without organizing creates a new problem. You know what the email means… but have nowhere to put it. So it stays in your inbox making all that work of processing seem pointless.

If emails stay in your inbox forever, there’s usually one reason: You don’t have trusted places to put them. No buckets → inbox becomes storage.

The GTD clarifying sequence is simple: 1⃣ What is it? 2⃣ Is it actionable? If yes → what’s the next action? Skip step 1 and everything breaks.

A GTD coaching moment Meg Edwards sees all the time from clients: “I don’t know where this email goes.” The first question she asks: “What is it?” The client usually sits their in silence for a few moments before saying "I don't know." That's where the real work begins.

One of the most common productivity mistakes: Trying to organize something before you’ve clarified what it is. That never works.

If you feel the urge to constantly scan your inbox, this might be why: You don’t trust it will get fully clarified later. So you keep checking.
