“Everything you’ve told yourself you ought to do, your mind thinks you should do right now. Frankly, as soon add you have two things to do stored in your RAM, you’ve generated personal failure, because you can’t do two things at the same time. This produces an all-pervasive stress factor whose source can’t be pin-pointed.”
― David Allen, Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity

“Anything that causes you to overreact or underreact can control you, and often does.”
― David Allen, Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity

“I have not failed. I've just found 10,000 ways that won't work.”

“Most people feel best about their work the week before their vacation, but it's not because of the vacation itself. What do you do the last week before you leave on a big trip? You clean up, close up, clarify, and renegotiate all your agreements with yourself and others. I just suggest that you do this weekly instead of yearly.”
― David Allen, Getting Things Done: The Art of Stress-Free Productivity
