Growth

GTD and the Quadrant Method Practice During the New Year holidays, I spent a lot of time reflecting. Alongside the growth and many merits over the past year, I also identified several shortcomings: Lack of proactive thought on prioritizing tasks A tendency to actively solve issues without much focus Difficulty in concentrating on completing specific TODOs Whenever I review my tasks, despite their number, I often feel a lack of clear judgment and thorough consideration.
