    Loved this read, worth every penny. Simple, short, clear, instructive, and very articulate. I set mine up line for line by the book and realized I was learning the GTD method even better than before. Then put your own style on it and rock it! Thank you
  • Well worth the measly price

    Things 3 is so incredibly easy to just start using that I hesitated buying this book. WIth that out of the way, do yourself a favor and just buy it. It’s a super quick read, but if you aren’t familiar with GTD this will give you a very high level overview. More importantly it will give you an excellent structure to begin organizing yourself inside Things. Along the way I even learned about a couple of features that make Things even more incredible for me, like repeating projects.
  • A must-read for Things users!

    I tried to click with Things 2 years ago, but I could not get it to click with GTD which has been an invaluable workflow for me. With Things 3 coming out, I happened to see this book pass me on my twitter feed and picked it up! It’s a fantastic from the ground up how to implement GTD in Things 3 with everything explained clearly! Screenshots, lists, and processes are all clearly defined here. GTD is even explaned pretty clearly to the point that i’d say even if you havent read Getting Things Done, you’d get a pretty great primer with this book. If GTD is your workflow and you’re looking at giving Things 3 a try, i’d say this is requred reading. The only slightly negative (not enough to knock the score) is due to the fact the book hasent been updated since launch. Cultured Code just added the ability to do repeating tasks, which was not avaialble when Things 3 launched, therefore the book gives you an alternate way to do repating tasks. This was great when Things 3 came out, but i’d love for new users coming in now to get that little piece updated.
  • Great for Professionals and Students

    One of the biggest challenges of using an app to run your day to day life is actually remembering to utilize it every day. The app alone is great; however, having someone walk you through the initial setup is priceless for long-term productivity. GTD with Things 3 does just that. The author doesn’t simply give you instructions on how to use the features; that's what the manual is for. The book gives clear examples of how use features, how to personalize your experience with the app. The initial setup will make you want to use the app on the daily basis without feeling overwhelmed.
  • A great resource for GTD / Things newbies…vets

    Bowers lowers the already-low barrier to entry for GTD and Things. Whether you’re interested in implementing an easy and effective productivity workflow that works for you with the best software available, or a GTD aficionado looking to take advantage of all Things 3 offers, this book is for you. And at an incredibly fair price!
