I am leading a book club on GTD in early January and this was so helpful – thank you very much.

Comment on The Creative Habit by Shaun-Michael Morse

I love that you are using this book in your MBA program, you see . . . I lead a double life. For more than ten years now I have worked in the telecommunications industry as an instructional and graphic designer. At the same time I am also a professional actor, set designer and stage director with a college degree in Theater Performance with over 150 productions to my credit.

When I graduated from college I had a hard time finding theater jobs and so I started interviewing in the business sector. For many years I was surrounded by colleagues with MBA and Computer Science degrees, and embarrased to admit to anyone that my degree was in Theater.

Over the years I have become one of the most sought after resources for any project we do. Why? Because I don’t think like any of the business people I know. I feel have an easier time problem solving than many of my colleages, I tend to think wholistically. I remind people on a daily basis to remember that “how” we communicate an idea is just as important as the idea itself.

Just wanted to say, I think it’s great that you’re using this book. We need more thinking like this in the business world.

Check out two other books: “Caffeine for the Creative Mind: 250 Exercises to Wake Up Your Brain,” and “Caffeine for the Creative Team: 200 Exercises to Inspire Group Innovation.” Both books are by Stefan Mumaw.

Comment on The Path Of Least Resistance by Chris Holloway

Hey Chris, thanks, sorry you couldn’t make it. I think you would enjoy the book. It is not for everybody though. His writing style is dense, but not to where you feel like it is unorganized. You just have to follow along. He takes a very systematic approach that is focused. He takes you from point a to b, while simultaneously teaching theory and promoting practicality.

Wow, nice recap. This book sounds really full and sounds like a good discussion followed. Did you feel like the book was dense because the message itself was so rich? Or was it dense because of the writing style? Was anyone in the group ready to start applying the theory?

Nice summary. I’ve been using GTD for more than three years. Couldn’t be effective without it now. It takes discipline, which most people don’t have in large doses. It’s kind of a screening test: the world rewards those using a proven system to increase effectiveness and mental relaxation, while maintaining discipline over a prolonged time frame.
