BYU Library doesn't have a copy of Getting Things Done, so I popped in at the bookstore and bought the last copy ($15 paperback, not too bad and well worth the money). I also noticed a second book by David Allen, Ready for Anything, and in reading the introduction ...
I've got too much on my plate. You know the feeling -- so much to do, so little time, and before long it's crowding around you like a gang of thugs in a dark alleyway. By that point you want to wake up from this bad dream and ...
