GTD has done my prayer life (and sleep) a lot of good

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Getting rolling with GTD has brought a few unexpected benefits to my life — an improved prayer life and an easier time falling asleep at night.

I’m personally a Christian, but this applies to anyone of any faith, or anyone that simply likes to meditate.  I’ve always had a hard time focusing for very long, because my mind was racing with ideas, things to do, things I forgot to do, etc.  By getting everything in a system that I trust, it really does clear your mind.  It’s been quite remarkable.

This carries over to my sleeping habits.  Again, my mind used to churn when I lay in the bed and it would sometimes make it hard to fall asleep.  While I still have worries and anxieties about various aspects of life, I have fewer things to worry about than before.

It’s amazing to see the little things that GTD can help with.  What other unexpected benefits have you seen once you got invested with GTD?
