David Allen sets forth in this book a model of how the mind stores and organizes information along with a system he developed derived from this model aimed at maximizing your organizational capacity. Essentially Allen argues that there is only so much information the mind can get track of in any kind of organized fashion before it begins to drastically lose efficiency. By keeping lists and plans externally, more of your mind is freed to move on to other tasks at increased efficiency. Allen outlines in his book a system he believes will not only keep you well organized but free your mind so it can work at peak efficiency. Members of the 247Advisor staff, including our CEO Ellen Thompson, are reading and implementing Allen's organizational techniques.
