Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) and Getting Things Done (GTD) | GTD NYC

Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) is a goal-achieving approach used by many practitioners worldwide using communication, personal development, and psychotherapy techniques. In this GTD NYC Meetup, we have a member-presentation by Joseph Varghese (with help from John Johnson) who will be showing us a bit about getting things done with NLP!

This is where everyone can offer a book title, recent blog or magazine article, tip/trick/hack, tool, smartphone app, service or item that has helped them in their life productively either with GTD or otherwise. The above category is a recommended focus for sharing, but you may share any productivity resource that has helped you on your GTD journey.
