David talks about keeping track of balances due, and the importance of having a complete inventory of your projects and next actions in order to say yes or no to new requests.
Jennifer Ladd-Lively demonstrates why "the better you get, the better you'd better get." As her responsibilities have increased, she has modified her system from what she calls the brute force method, to a combination of digital and paper that handles everything smoothly.
Jennifer says the two-minute rule made a big difference in her productivity, as did the Weekly Review, which is now part of her routine. Others ask her how she accomplishes so much with ease, so it's no surprise that her example inspires those around her.
David Allen talks about the three Cs of effective systems -- Consistent, Current, and Context-driven.
