The Berkeley Lab Postdoc Association is an organization run by and for about 1000 postdocs and early career scientists working at the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. We organize many activities to strengthen our ties to the Lab, to each other and to the (Berkeley) Bay Area. Our goal is to facilitate social interactions, scientific exchanges, seminars and general orientation.

Postdoc-to-Postdoc: Getting Things Done

During our February Postdoc-to-Postdoc, Ryan Kingsbury, a postdoc in ETA, gave us an introduction to GTD practices and described how they can enhance our productivity at work and home.

Getting Things Done (GTD) is a system of habits and practices for getting life under control. Detailed in the bestselling book by David Allen, this system recognizes that when we capture ALL of our commitments, clarify “next actions” for each one, and review regularly, we free our minds to focus on what we are doing without feeling guilty about what we aren’t.
