Getting Things Done (GTD) is a personal productivity system developed by David Allen and published in a book of the same name. GTD is described as a time management system.

This allows one's attention to focus on taking action on each task listed in an external record, instead of recalling them intuitively.First published in 2001, a revised edition of the book was released in 2015 to reflect the changes in information technology during the preceding decade.
