"Through a specific and powerful five-stage workflow, you can get back in control of everything on your plate." GTD's five-stage workflow—Capture, Clarify, Organize, Reflect, and Engage—creates a seamless system for managing tasks. Capturing involves noting down every task or idea in an external tool, while clarifying means determining if the item is actionable. This structured approach ensures that nothing slips through the cracks, allowing you to focus on what truly matters.
