. I tried GTD a looooong time ago and I gave up almost immediately. It surprises me though, that there is actually an outlook plugin for GTD system and a ton of softwares based on GTD. That means there is some section of people who are finding it useful . Anyways this book is markedly different in its premise. It is based on chunking principle. If you want to do anything , focus on it for a specific period of time, take a break and repeat it !

“The plural of anecdote is not data.” - Roger Brinner

To visualize data efficiently, one must make a transition from a state where you use point and click interfaces (a user’s view) to a state where you can code your own graphic( a developer’s view). At the outset, “User’s view” is very appealing as you can use a cutesy GUI to draw some graphs etc. However if you have discover something in the data, this “User’s view” is of no use and one needs to acquire developer skills to visualize graphics.
